Dragonfly (Veronica Dultry) is a fictional supervillainess appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
Dragonfly first appeared in X-Men #94-95 (August–October 1975), and was created by Chris Claremont and Len Wein.
The character subsequently appears in X-Men #104 (April 1977), Quasar #14 (September 1990), #16 (November 1990), #20 (March 1991), Captain America #389-391 (August–September 1991), #412-413 (February–March 1993), and Thunderbolts #24-25 (March–April 1999).
Veronica Dultry is endowed with superhuman powers by Maggia scientists in order to serve the crime lord Count Nefaria among the second group of Ani-Men. The Ani-Men take control of the NORAD base at Mount Valhalla, but are defeated by the X-Men, and imprisoned in the mutant research complex at Muir Island. She escapes shortly after when Erik the Red breaks into the complex.
She is later abducted by the alien Stranger to his laboratory world, where she and other abductees are manipulated by the Overmind into battling Quasar. After she returns to Earth, she mutates further due to the Stranger's experiments, but Ant-Man aids her in returning to her normal appearance.
Later, she joins Superia's Femizons and battles Captain America and Paladin. Dragonfly and several other former Femizons battle Captain America again during an A.I.M. weapons demonstration.
