Eddie Endit was a member of Shaky's gang. He had light hair and moustache. He typically wore round eyeglasses.
Eddie went into hiding with Shaky and Joe Doke after Snowflake Falls escaped from their hideout.
He aided Shaky in his plan to get revenge on Snowflake. When the plan failed, Eddie, Joe, and Shaky were forced to hide out in an un-heated building. They kept warm with a space heater, which caught fire. The building was engulfed in flames and Joe and Eddie were killed.
Notes
- Some ambiguity in the artwork and dialogue has led to some confusion between Joe and Eddie. A later Rogues' Gallery feature specified that Eddie was the one with the moustache and eyeglasses.
- Similarly, it is not entirely clear which of the two henchmen was killed by the fire and which was killed by jumping from the burning building, though it seems more likely that Eddie was the one who jumped (rather than Joe).
- Eddie dies not seem to appear in the strip until after Specs Jones and Cappy Williams were killed by police, so it is unclear if Eddie ever worked directly with those two men.
