(Miracle Comics 002, 1940)
The Eyes is a spy chief (singular) who has a cool gimmick (contact lenses or similar which can emit powerful light beams to spooky effect) and goes all in on it as a theme. Specifically, the Eyes is all about destroying eyes via blinding light, acid or simple traumatic injury - honestly a pretty effective thing to threaten most people with, even if they are for example very loyal to the aircraft company they work for. It ultimately takes Dash Dixon, whose eyes are presumably three times as powerful as the average man's, to take him down.
One more thing about the Eyes is that his henchmen all have their own gangster-style nickname - variously Finger, the Switch and Trusty - and that's pleasing to me.
