Bring on the Bad Guys: RJ Karns

Real name: R.J. Karns
First appearance: All-American Comics#24 (March 1941)
Abilities: Can run a slavery ring and shipping company at the same time
Worst act: Slavery
Created by: Bill Finger (story), Mart Nodell (art)

Green Lantern is a bit a side player in this one. The main hero is Jim Cass, who goes to work on a tropical island. Turns out the residents there are more on the 'permanent and no pay' status. Cass escapes but no will believe him.

That is until the Green Lantern decides to investigate and links island boss Pancho Lupo with shipping magnate RJ Karns.

A serous problem, but Karns is again just another guy in a suit.
