Chameleon (Nedor)

The Chameleon appeared in the City of Eastport, spreading panic. The Grim Reaper's alter ego, Bill Norris, is there representing a group of citizens interested in the Mayor's bond issue. The mayor and Treasurer Dorne were thinking of callin git off due to the Chameleon. They Mayor explained that the villain was out to destroy Eastport, making it a poor investment risk.

As the Grim Reaper, he investigates and finds the Chameleon ramming a trolley car barn with a trolley. They fight, but he escapes. At Wilson Square, the Chameleon threw two hand grenades into teh Civic Auditorium, on teh other side of town.

The Reaper investigates the villains previous activities via the newspaper back issues, when the Chameleon bursts into where he is staying. After being given the slip, he notes fingerprints on his door knob. He hypothesizes that Chameleon can move around so quickly because he is secretly two people. However, the fingerprints are always the same.

The one's GR found were different, and the police ID them as City Treasurer Dorne's! Breaking into Dorne's house, finding four Chameleons! The leader turns out to be Dorne, who had to kill the bond issue after embezzling most of Eastport's bank funds. He traced the Reaper via his access to police phone calls.

The Reaper explains that when Dorne's hands came into a janitor's hydrochloric acid cleaning materials, it melted the plastic gloves being used to simulate the same fingerprints on each "Chameleon".
