Hal Hooey
An agent who tells Mr Tawny he can make a great singer out of him. Though his voice is terrible, people will want to see a singing tiger. When Billy tells him not to be forced into something he does not want, and when Hooey tries to stop him he transforms and tries to throw him out. But Hal flatters Tawny, making him sign the contract. When Cap criticises him, Hal claims he is jealous. A Gala party is arranged to celebrate this next day, but Hal drops the invitation to Captain Marvel into the bin as he wants their friendship to break up. The feud will be good publicity. Tawney is upset Cap does not turn up, and Cap is upset Tawney did not invite him. A fire breaks out from a dropped match and Cap puts it out, but they are still angry at each other. Odd that Cap with the wisdom of Solomon could not act more cleverly. The news spreads of the 'feud' and it is claimed Cap will beat up Tawky if he meets him again and on the radio it is reported Tawny called Captain Marvel a big red cheese. The publicity means seats are sold out for the performance, and when Billy comes to try to patch up the friendship he is kncoked out by Hooey and locked in the prop room. Tawny is booed for his awful singing, and Billy is woken up by this, summons Captain Marvel, and stops the hurled projectiles. He then stops Hooey from running away with the money, and he admits he threw the invitation away. Tawny realises never to doubt a true friend.
