History
Devil Kyoti was a Japanese spy whose fiery temper caused much destruction during WWII. When enraged, he seethed with hatred and fire would burst all around him. He briefly served The Black Dragon, the real ruler of Japan, who had him captured by the Shinto Wizards. However, Kyoti broke free from the Wizard's "sacred mirror of Ise" and hijacked a bomber plane in order to continue his nefarious schemes of demolition. The Shadow finally stopped the sinister villain with the aide of his young assistant Jerry Craig, who was unaffected by Kyoti's petrifying gaze.
