Firekind ran in the weekly anthology comic 2000 AD for 13 issues in 1993.

The self-contained story concerns a human botanist named Larsen who travels to the alien jungle planet Gennyo-Leil whose atmosphere is a toxic hallucinogen. Though he initially gains the inhabitants' trust, his mission is compromised by the arrival of a merciless gang of mercenary poacher / torturers. But Gannyo-Leil is not without defenses...
