The dynamics of small-amplitude solitons in one-dimensional arrays of short Josephson junctions with negative group velocity is reported. Analytical expression of the solitons are derived. Dynamics of bright and dark solitons is numerically studied. Very high soliton velocities are observed. The effect of the modulation instability on the envelope shape is analyzed and the effect of loss is discussed.
