Pulp Era Villains: El Jefe Inmortal (The Immortal Boss)

This masked gangland boss ruled Tijuana with an iron fist in the late 1920s and the very real belief that he could not be killed. Several attempts on his life early on should have killed him, but he was al;ways back hale and hearty the next day. After a half dozen encounters with Inspector Ayala and his Anti-Gang Squad, the truth finally came out. It seems the Boss, Miguel Flores, was actually 3 brothers, triplets. One of the uninjured ones would just take the place of the one who was nearly killed until he was fully recuperated thanks to an ancient Aztec potion.

After a shootout that killed two of the brothers, the third brother revealed that the potion was aging them with every useage. He looked 60, but was actually only 32.
