Troy Adams

Troy Adams is a recurring antagonist of Image Comics' Firebreather along with the animated movie of the same name as the secondary antagonist. He is introduced as the bully of Duncan Rosenblatt, also known as Firebreather, due to being half-Kaiju.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) He's a rip off of Flash Thompson from the Spider-Man comics.
 * 2) He is a generic clichéd jock with generic plans to humiliate other people including Duncan, his favorite target.
 * 3) He treats Duncan Rosenblatt/Firebreather like a freak due to his half-Kaiju appearance and thinks he is not special, along with being like a rabbit and a frog because of him.
 * 4) He claims himself as the "King of Jocks", that gets old very fast.
 * 5) He barely has any character development and personality.
 * 6) In the comics, He framed Duncan into putting a gun on his locker and is proud of it, but never gets punished.
 * 7) In the movie, He tried to chase Duncan as revenge for beating them at dodgeball and was the one that caused him to breathe fire on Troy.
 * 8) Since he is Jenna Shwartzendruber's boyfriend, Troy often stole her money for no reason.
 * 9) He never learns his lesson.
 * 10) Despite being unlikeable, Troy gets a lot of screentime.
 * 11) After Kenny yelled at Duncan about their friend, Isabel only liking him because of being the son of the kaiju, Belloc, this left Jenna to overhear it and backing away from Duncan into Troy's arms and he's proud of it.
 * 12) He is downright ruthless and more arrogant than Flash Thompson.
 * 13) He only existed to give Duncan some dramatic tension throughout the series and just to show what it's like for Duncan to be an outcast because of his Kaiju heritage.
 * 14) He thinks he is not a racist about Duncan's disease.
 * 15) His dialogue is painful to the nerve when he calls Duncan a “freak” and nothing else.
 * 16) He also has an abusive father, who is also a rip off of Flash Thompson's father, Harrison. In the movie version, Troy gets grounded from him after he confronted Duncan and Jenna at a party.

The Only Redeeming Quality

 * 1) He does leave Duncan alone for quite a while.

Trivia

 * In the comics, Troy's hair was blond, which the animated movie was brown.
