- Night-Creepers are Cobra characters from the A Real American Hero and G.I. Joe vs. Cobra series.
Types of Night-Creepers[]
Version 1 - "Classic" Suit: The original purple and maroon suit with gray and maroon camouflage pants. This suit includes a silver visor and breast plates.
"Polar Force" Suit: This is a version 1 suit, but white with gray visor and breast plates. This suit is insulated for cold weather.
"Urban Division" Suit: This is a version 1 suit, but with blue, black and gray camouflage.
Version 2 - "Ninja Force" Suit: This is a blue and maroon suit with a visored helmet, and a bandoleer in place of breast plates.
Version 3 - "Venom" Suit: This is a colored suit with additional armored plating and a steel masked helmet without a visor. Colors variations includes: blue; olive; black; green; navy blue (with gold-plating); and red. The reasoning for the color variations is unknown with regards to rank and position, but it is assumed that the gold-plated navy blue suit denotes a leader, while a red suited Night-Creeper is a trained H.I.S.S. Tank Driver.

Trivia[]
- Working names included Ghost-Tigers, Ghost-Dragons, and Brotherhood of the Were-Tigers.
- In the Marvel comics, the Night-Creepers were always identified by Hebrew letters.
- Night-Creepers appear as regular enemies on sections 3-3 and 6-1 of the NES Taxan G.I. Joe game.
- A paragraph from Larry Hama's submitted filecard was cut before release:
| “ | We caught one of these Night Creepers in a steel deadfall trap. Before we could interrogate him, he willed himself into a coma, causing an electro-chemical shunt that was wired into his central nervous system to auto-destruct all the weapons and equipment he was carrying! We suspect his gear included image-intensifiers, radar deflectors, infa-red dissipaters, and holographic decoy projectors, all built into bulletproof armor panels! | ” |
