Prof. Wotasnozzle

This statue was dedicated in 2014.

Prof. Wotasnozzle is a short, bearded, be-speckled man who wears a cap and gown. He is a brilliant scientist and a mad inventor, exercising Mr. Segar’s love of science fiction and amateur engineering. He made his debut May 8, 1932. Prof. Wotasnozzle traveled to space and split atoms “as easily as walnuts.” His statue was dedicated in 2014.

The Professor always meant to improve the quality of life with his creations (and make some money in the process), but his creations generally resulted in disaster, usually with his friend and landlord, John Sappo, on the receiving end of the disaster!
