Frankie, or "Hammerhead" as his friends call him, is one of Blackie Cole's henchmen in The Invisible Woman. He is played by Shemp Howard. He was one of the ones sent to steal Professor Gibbs' invisibility machine. It is unclear why he was nicknamed Hammerhead (although possibly it was because he was incredibly brash and headstrong).
