The Legend of Tarzan[]
In "Tarzan and the Fugitives", Staquait acts as judge and executioner, and has made it his goal to hunt down Hugo and Hooft, after they refused his order to burn down a village full of women and children. Tarzan helps fake their demise, but the Colonel eventually learns the truth and imprisons them in "Tarzan and the Prison Break".

However, Tarzan is released after Renard impersonates a French magistrate, which Staquait does not notice as the heroes safely return to Africa by steamship.
