(Big Shot Comics 003, 1940)
Is a hook hand the most basic gimmick that automatically flips a gang boss over to being a super-villain in my mind? We don't have enough data to call it yet but all signs point to Probably.
This Hook is Hook Horner and there's not too much to say about him: he kidnaps a young woman sometime between the death of someone she is set to inherit millions from but before she herself knows about it, ie, while the money is still going to be in legal limbo for a while yet, ie, way too early. He gives the Face a run for his money but like a lot of hook-handed villains in the end he dies because his hook gets caught on something, in this case a speeding car.
