Fictional character biography

Kogar was a smuggler and was employed by Chang, Sklar and Black Jack Blue.

In "Master of Kung-Fu", Shang's friend and ally Black Jack Tarr decides to infiltrate Kogar's criminal organization. He is blindfolded and take to their headquarters by two of Kogar's men. Tarr's decision to defeat the two men in combat impresses Kogar enough; he allows Tarr to join.
