What role does Capone play in this game exactly?

[Heckman]

With Capone appearing so many times in the advertisement, it leads one to believe that he is either the main, playable protagonist or a figurehead of the game. If the former is the case, the opportunity to customize your own crime lord would be missed. If the latter is the case, I assume all the game play shown is prologue of sorts, meant to teach the mechanics of the game.

Al Capone is one of several playable mob bosses in the game. More information to follow!
