Bring on the Bad Guys: Blakfu and the Mole Men

Real name: Blakfu
A.K.A: N/A
First appearance: Wonder Woman I#4 (April/May 1943)
Abilities: Ruler of the Mole Men
Quotes:
Worst act: Kidnapping and plotting to take over America
Created by: William Moulton Marston (script), Harry G. Peters (pencils/inks)


Odd choice here. King Blakfu is the ruler of the Mole Men. Much like the Mole People, Blakfu is blind from living underground. Unlike the film version, only the men are affected. Mole women, on the other hand, have no issue seeing in the dark and apply makeup to help the men see.

When an earthquake swallows up Etta Candy and the Holliday Girls, Blakfu tells them of his plan to invade the USA and conquer it! Yeah, a bunch of people who can only see when women wear glow in the dark paint. I see no issue with that plan.

Wonder Woman and Baroness Paula head down to the underworld to rescue the girls and beat some moles.
