Through the schemings of Cobra Commander, Destro, and Dr. Venom, Scar-Face rose quickly through the ranks of Cobra in a relatively short time. His ascent began when he carried a briefcase containing a toxin from San Francisco to Sierra Gordo, where Cobra had established a front organization. There, the Joes caught up to him, but he escaped with the Baroness in a seaplane, apparently killing Snake-Eyes, Dr. Venom, and the mercenary Kwinn in the process. As Cobra Commander and Destro began a power struggle, Scar-Face allied himself secretly to Destro.

Cobra soon launched a plan to contaminate the United States' money supply with the toxin. Scar-Face and Dr. Venom, who had not died after all, entered the Treasury Building, but were stopped by the Joe team. Scar-Face escaped, and decided to lie low for a time at his hideout on Coney Island. Destro found him there, and convinced him to go to Libya, where Dr. Venom infected him with the toxin. While Scar-Face himself was safe from its effects, anyone he came in contact with would be infected. The Joes captured him in Libya, and took him to the Pit. There, he was placed in a pre-fab fortress that Cobra believed was GI Joe headquarters. Cobra destroyed the fortress, killing Scar-Face, and stopping the plague he carried before it started.
