Rob is Justice International’s newest agent. in addition to being idealistic and quick- tempered, he’s smart, handsome, a fair shot, yada yada yada. He also tends to get nervous around pretty women, which he encounters a lot in his line of work.

Most of the “old school” agents at JI remain suspicious of this young upstart since he didn’t come in with a traditional military/intelligence background. Rob also has a chip on his shoulder because his father, Patrick, was a U.S. intelligent agent who, if official records are to be believed, went bad.

In his spare time, he likes long walks on the beach and secretly reads comics. He’s a pisces.

General Amra

General Amra heads the armed forces of the tiny Middle East nation of Koman. The strongman considers the country's rebel forces, which controls much of the nation's outlying areas, a threat to Koman's stability and his personal power. He is rumored to be working to take control of the government through either constitutional means or under the guise of a state of emergency. (See Adventure Strip Digest #1.)

Bolkan, Vojislav

Claiming to be descended from royalty, the self-proclaimed "Prince Bolkan" is a former shoe salesman who has exploited nationalism and instability in his Central European home country for personal and political gain.

He is now a rich and powerful warlord who heads his own paramilitary army called "The White Tigers." His men are paid through plunder, with Bolkan getting a small "tribute" of their ill-gotten gains.

Playing the part of a modern-day Prince, Bolkan has a predilection for wearing Royalist uniforms. (See RHA #4).

Clemson

Clemson is a former CIA agent who now works as a mercenary and hired gun—most prominently as a "capo" for international crimelord Nicolai Korda. He is distinguished by shock-white hair broken by a dramatic streak of black. (See Adventure Strip Digest #3 and 4.)

Corbeil, Isabelle

Cox, Jarret

Jarret Cox is one of Rob's CIA handlers. A product of the Cold War, his zealousness is balanced only by his respect for his more moderate partner, Dennis Winger.

Perpetually wearing his trademark aviator sunglasses, Cox makes little effort to hide his dislike for Rob and the legacy of Rob's father.

Cromwell, Anthony

Extremely narcissistic and self-centered, he harbors a deep resentment towards the Drake family.

He is married to Caroline Wilde. (See Rob Hanes Adventures #4).

Drakorp

Originally founded in the early 20th century by the Drake family as a mining company in Southeast Asia and the Far East, Drakorp has grown into one of the world's predominant oil companies and multinational conglomerates.

In recent years, the company has experienced an internal power struggle as family members fight for control of the company and the family fortune. (See Adventure Strip Digest #2 and Rob Hanes Adventures #3 and 4.)

Girard, Gabriel Evans

Hanes, Patrick (alias "Glowworm", alias Felix Shannon)

Father of Rob Hanes, Patrick Hanes was assumed dead after disappearing in South America in the 1970s, until recently resurfacing as Felix Shannon, a notorious arms merchant.

Patrick Hanes was a highly respected State Department official where he received many highly visible overseas assignments, including posts in Vietnam, Africa and South America. After marrying into the political dynasty known as the McCay family, Hanes seemed set until allegations surfaced that he was the notorious "Glowworm," a high-level Soviet mole. Before he could be taken into custody, Hanes disappeared, leaving his wife and young son behind. (See the Rob Hanes Archives)

Jacoby

Once the world's premiere assassin, his calling card was to become a close friend of his target before killing them at his leisure.

Unfortunately, Jacoby made the mistake of falling in love with one of his targets, Tiffany Lance, who was under the protection of Rob Hanes at the time. Since then, Jacoby's reputation has been destroyed and he blames Rob for the troubles which followed and forced him to lose his reputation. (See the Rob Hanes Archives.)

Justice International

Koman

A tiny Middle Eastern nation by the Persian Gulf. Once a playground for the rich and famous, like many of its neighbors, Koman has fallen prey to civil strife.

Once a battleground between East and West during the Cold War, today a fragile coalition of rebel and fundamentalist forces struggle against the iron fist dictatorship of the powerful General Amra.

Korda, Nicolai

Every hero has his arch enemy, and Rob has a doozy: Nicolai Korda.

An international crimelord of indeterminate Eastern European origin, Korda remains a shadowy figure who runs a vast worldwide criminal network whose reach he constantly is working to expand. Rob remains the one person who has consisently remained the one thorn in his side.

Kwan, Billy

A Hong Kong drug lord. Believed to be killed during an incident involving Rob Hanes, but his body was never recovered. (See Adventure Strip Digest #3.)

Lance, Tiffany

Tiffany is a journalist for Find magazine, a newsweekly like Time and Newsweek. Arrogant and not suffering fools gladly, she maintains a competitive, non-romantic relationship with Rob. Tiffany and Rob often bump into each other at the most unexpected times and places. Rob saved Tiffany's life when she was targeted by an international assassin codenamed Jacoby. (See the Rob Hanes Archives.)

McCay, Thurmond

Thurmond McCay is the current patriarch of the powerful McCay family, a prominent American family dynasty, which has produced several generations of statesmen and industrialists, including lawyers, bankers, businessmen, legislators, and ambassadors.

McCay's direct descendants are his daughter, Sharon McCay, who married Patrick Hanes in the 1960s, and his grandson, Rob Hanes, the only child of Patrick and Sharon McCay Hanes. After the disappearance of Patrick Hanes in the 1970s and the death of his daughter shortly thereafter, McCay became the legal guardian for his grandson, who he tried to groom as the heir to the family dynasty.

McKenna, Abner

Abner is rob’s sometime partner, best friend and mother hen at JI. Sstrictly
speaking, Abner isn’t a field agent, and he likes it that way. The less work
and danger the better, but he’s also Rob’s conscience and voice of reason.
But if you’re in trouble, there’s no one better to count on.

(See Adventure Strip Digest #3 and the Rob Hanes Archives.)

A hired thug whose sole existence seems to be to make Rob's life miserable. Huge, lantern-jawed, and curly haired he often pops up as the right-hand man for Rob's villain-of-the-moment, usually with the instructions to beat the living tar out of Rob. Rocco is always in a perpetual squint, wears leisure suits that show off his barrel-chested (and hairy) chest, and NEVER speaks. (See the Rob Hanes Archives for details.)
