This initially brought him into frequent conflict with teammate Lady Jaye, and the two fought attraction to each other for years, but eventually gave in and expressed their feelings for each other.

Joe was disbanded, at which time Flint decided to remain active in the military, while Lady Jaye went into semi-retirement.

[2] Flint's 1986 action figure card describes him as a "Warrant Officer" but his character profile states his grade as E-6 for his original release.

In the UK Action Force comics and toys, Flint's real name was David R. Faireborn and his file card stated that he hailed from Lincoln, England.

[11] Flint, Lady Jaye, Scarlett and Snake Eyes take a vacation in the island country of Grenada.

With Ozone and Clean-Sweep, he confronts the Cobra agent Cesspool, who is causing a pollution disaster from an abandoned oil platform.

Flint resumes his duties as the team's primary tactician, while Lady Jaye eventually becomes the Joes' Head of Intelligence and a field commander.

Many of their teammates comment that Flint's marriage to Lady Jaye seems to have a positive effect on him, causing him to mellow out a great deal.

Joe is reformed with a smaller roster and covert status, Flint is called back to active duty.

The charismatic, well-spoken and confident to the point of arrogance Warrant Officer, was replaced by a sullen and brooding man who rarely speaks (when he does, it is usually to suggest maximum force against any size threat), and trains to become a better warrior at the cost of his humanity.

Flint then became a recurring character throughout the series, often alternating in the commanding officer role with Duke in the first season.

In the episode, he goes a seaside town to visit his cousin, only to discover that Cobra has hypnotized the population into slave labor at a secret underwater base.

The series didn't refer to his relationship with Lady Jaye (who appeared in the first season, paired up with Captain Grid-Iron).

In "The Killing Jar", she encounters an illusory version of her father, who was voiced by Bill Ratner, the same actor as Flint in the G.I.

The writers of both shows remained coy whether Marissa Faireborn was actually Flint and Lady Jaye's daughter or not.

He had a minor role in Valor vs Venom, working on a remote station in the jungle, with Gung-Ho, Beach Head and Tunnel Rat under his command.

When Duke is personally seeing to the Siberian strike, Flint takes command on the USS Flagg, overseeing the gathering of information by the support staff and the deployment of Joe squads to HAARP and a stratalite formation.

When Cobra's secondary HAARP targets the USS Flagg, Flint leads the evacuation and, on board a mobile HQ in a Globemaster, hands command back to the returned Duke.

He uses Lady Jaye as his contact to capture the Renegades, but is unaware that she is actually supporting Duke against orders and against Flint.

In describing his character, Duke refers to Flint as a "blowhard", but one who is "clean" (episode 12, "Homecoming, Part 2").

In a flashback as seen in the two-part episode "Homecoming", Flint was a football player who led his team to victory with a play that ended up breaking Duke's leg.

Flint was happy to rub this in until he realized how serious the damage had been and that this ruined Duke's chance to get a football scholarship to college.

Despite his overbearing and arrogant manner, Flint in "Homecoming, Part 2" claims that he is Duke's friend and has only ever tried to help him.

When the Renegades are briefly in custody in "Homecoming", Flint interrogates Duke: he doesn't believe the truth about Cobra Industries but as he knows Duke is a good man, Flint believes he was coerced into destroying a Cobra factory on behalf of unknown backers who will now want to silence him.

When the Baroness attacks the prison transport train, he reluctantly recruits the Joes to fight her off; when they escape afterwards, he deliberately doesn't shoot Duke when he has a clear shot.

In "Knockoffs", he showed distrust of and distaste for Baroness' Cobra troopers at the time when he and Lady Jaye were using Zartan to track the Joes.

When Zartan escaped with the Chameleon Mold meant for Cobra Commander, Baroness stated to Flint that she thought he was with the Joes.

In "Prodigal", the Joes had to arrange for Ripcord (who was discovered to have been turned into a Human/Bio-Viper Hybrid) to surrender to Flint's group.

[31] In the film, Flint is a rookie to Duke's Joe unit, which goes to Pakistan to recover a nuclear warhead.

The majority of the unit is subsequently eliminated in a military air strike, with the only survivors being Flint, Roadblock (Dwayne Johnson), and Lady Jaye (Adrianne Palicki).
