John Allen (Earth-428)

John Allen is a powerful businessman, unknown to the public is that he is a notorious crime boss who controls most of the organized crime in Hush Vile. Having formed alliances with other criminal enterprises, Allen then used the aftermath of the Kurlon Attack to gain power in the city, and attempting to rebuild Hush Vile by destroying and gentrifying it. He had become one of the most powerful crime bosses in Hush Vile, secretly controlling the city's organized crime families, only being known as the "Big Guy". As part of his criminal empire, Allen used several warehouses throughout the city to house resources and men, while operating out of his penthouse. Publicly, he posed as a wealthy philanthropist and legitimate businessman. He had his men inside the LRGC erase all files of his existence and anything that could pull him out of the dark, allowing him to operate in the shadows.

He is the leader of a huge crime organization, The Moira Mafia is a smaller one used as a coverup. Allen had manipulated the LRGC to murder the Moira Mafia's current leadership, including Jack Nolan, thereby taking control over the organization. Following the 1987 Capital Bombing, Allen strived to maintain his control over Hush Vile, turning against the opposing crime organizations and exposing their leaders anonymously.

Years later, he was covertly running the Moira Mafia after he manipulated the LRGC into killing their commander, Jack Nolan.
* **Master Businessman**: Allen at first only controlled the crime of Hush Vile, but has come to hire half of the underworld from the city, be it criminal organizations like the Moira Mafia, individual criminals or even part of the LRGC, all to keep himself safe. He came to found his own shell companies, like NewLook Construction and Union Bank for his illegal activity. Following the Kurlon Attack, Allen founded NewLook because he saw the financial opportunities and benefits of spearheading the reconstruction of Hush Vile, and he also used the company as a front for his money laundering operations.
