"London" Jack is a British man who allegedly murdered Gregory Billings in 1935. He then fled to South Africa and began working in the diamond fields. In 1940, Jack's girlfriend Kitty Smiley informed the police of his location, and Scotland Yard detectives tracked him down. They began to fly him back in a plane, but the craft was damaged and forced to land in the Belgian Congo. Jack outsmarted the detectives and pilot, stealing their guns and flying away with the plane after the pilot had finished repairing it. Native hero Ka-Zar watched this transpire and climbed aboard the plane as it took off, overpowering Jack and landing the plane to return him to custody and back on his trip to justice.[1]
