(Blue Beetle Comics 006, 1941)
I skip a lot of generic villains from the non-Marvel or DC families of comics, because everyone existing together in a big shared world is the thing about comics that makes me get out my spreadsheets and my extensive tagging system. A guy like Lugo, though, demands at least a little attention.
One thing to know about him off the bat is: he's an underwater guy. This happens a lot in comics starring underwater heroes such as Sub Saunders - just an surface thing transposed 1:1 to the depths. So Lugo is a bird-man, but he flies underwater and steals women to be his undersea brides off the coast of Florida. I really love his design, particularly his chicken feet and umbrella wings. Not so hot on the woman-kidnapping, but he gets his ass kicked successively by a snake-dragon, a stalactite and Sub Saunders before he gets the chance to take it any farther than abduction.
