History: 

These nondescript thugs from Action Comics (1938) #2 are only interesting in that they turn on their wealthy employer (Emil Norvell) when Emil tries to stiff them after they finish a job for him.

(That job entails getting Superman off Emil's back during the ocean voyage to San Monte, which they accomplish by knocking Superman off the ship -- though they do fall short of actually killing Superman.)

 It seems there truly is no honor among thieves.

Revenge on a double-crossing co-conspirator...
(Reminds me of another wealthy businessman who stiffs his contractors)
