<\/a><\/div>\nThe Great Green Turtle is just your standard Yellow Peril Chinatown ganglord, albeit one with a fantastic name. He does try to throw Sub-Zero, a man with ice powers, into a shark tank so we can safely say that he is not a villain with fantastic intelligence<\/i>. His gem-smuggling ring gets thoroughly kiboshed. (Blue Bolt v1 004, 1940)<\/p>\n
The Lama<\/b>: <\/p>\n The Lama is a bandit chief, essentially, albeit one with a name from one religious tradition and henchmen – Thuggees, natch – from another. He hijacks a plantation and then gets beat up by aviator Captain Kidd. (Fantastic Comics 010, 1940)<\/p>\n The Fire God<\/b>: <\/p>\n <\/p>\n If there’s one thing that Captain Kidd likes, it’s finding lost explorers, so when a fellow named Benson goes missing he’s off like a shot. He finds Benson about to be sacrificed to the Fire God, a masked figure who a well-placed kick reveals to be a Hitler lookalike in a mask (the Hitler thing is either a coincidence or just kind of meant to indicate generic megalomania in the Fire God’s character). This one not only has a white guy easily convincing a group of credulous natives that he is a god but an instance of White People Vs Everyone else as Captain Kidd fruitlessly tries to get out of a sticky situation by playing the race card.<\/p>\n The Fire God ultimately meets his end in the classic writer’s cop-out when they don’t want to make their guy do a murder: he falls and hits his head on a rock after a sock to the jaw.
