Information:
The most popular pirate character ever ‘Captain Hook’. He was known as the main enemy of Peter Pan. His most memorable appearance was in the animated film by Disney as a sinister, cunning, and frustrated man who sought revenge on Peter Pan for having cut off his wrist and fed his palm to a crocodile named ‘Tick Tock’. The name ‘Hook’ came from the ultra-sharp hook which was installed on his cut off hand but it was not used as the primary weapon during the confrontation with Peter Pan. At the end of the story, Captain Hook was defeated again by Peter Pan and the crocodile chased him off into the distance.
