- Bob Hayer: This magic fluid will stabilize your heartbeat. And there’s nothing you can do to stop it!

That’s one way to look at your job.
He needs to work on his evil laugh. The first syllable is “Bwa”. “Bwa ha ha ha ha!” is unmistakably evil. “Ha ha ha ha!” could be jolly depending upon the context.
This comic: “I always wanted to be a mad scentist, but…”
Next comic: “Now that we’ve replaced this poor, injured bobcat’s eye with a cybernetic one, he’ll be able to track his prey 10x more efficiently!”
I used to work as a museum educator at a science center. I did pretty much exactly this a minimum of once a day. (It was fun!)

That’s cruel. You don’t want the bobcat to lose both his eyes, do you?
I want a doctor like him. One who will look at me on the operating table and think, “I shall defeat death itself and nothing shall stop me.”
On a similar note, I’ve switched religions a few times, but even when I was Christians I was always creeped out by religious hospitals. I mean, even understanding the religion, there’s just something unnerving about walking into a place of medicine where one of the primary ideals is “If they die, they’ll be in a better place.”
@ Salisria:
He should see a vocal coach. It’s all about the laugh. You think Bad Horse didn’t work on his whinny?
Salisria wrote:
If you ask me “Mwa ha ha ha ha!” is valid as well.
Lo and behold, he hath snatched Arcturus from out of the gaping jaws of Hades itself!!
Who doesn’t want to be a little bite of a evil mad scientist at least once in their life?
If you are a good doc….i don’t care if you act as a evil scientist…. i even support that… at least he is having fun
Sandra, you must introduce him to Larisa.
He may not be a mad scientist, but he surely is a crazy scientist.
I can sympathize, that was my own career plan going into college. Then I realized that I probably couldn’t do it without violating people’s rights, and changed plans.
All I’ve got left of my childhood dreams is a wicked maniacal laugh.
Ok, confirmed, Dr. Hayer is my spirit animal.
I’m starting to become convinced this entire arc was conceived to showcase this one character
Arcturus is going to have to change his name to Francoonstein.
… Arcturus is just tachycardic from hypovolemia and that’s nothing but normal saline, isn’t it…?
I know the feeling, it’s hard to make a living as a villain these days.

Not sure if Lily is going to like that name change very much.
@ Evilbob:
Probably, but where’s the fun in saying that?
I like how Sandra just doesn’t give a damn about his performance.
@ Night-X:
Actually, it is not necessary to be evil. Simply being mad can suffice. And even if you are not mad, you can always pick some branch of study that all the regular scientists claim is mad. Cold fusion, for example, and for as long as it remains disputable, fully qualifies as “mad science”. Logically, a mad scientist can be a scientist studying mad science, right?

That may be true *if* you’re being operated on because you’re *dying*. The same doctor would look a lot less appealing for some minor routine surgery.
I LIKE him. He’s SILLY. 😀
@ Grijan:
to quote Dr. Putrid T. Gangreen “I’m not mad, just annoyed”
of course he can’t be a true mad scientist with out this

@ Kamino Neko:
Dr. Heinrich “Henry” von Frankenstein is the name of the scientist, his creation was never named in the book. and thus is often referred to as Frankenstein’s monster, or colloquially referred to as simply “Frankenstein”
@ Night-X:
Dan Brown once said “there’s a fine line between insanity and genius”
Walter wrote:
ROTFLMAO! Walter, you are EVIL! 🙂 This MUST happen!
Shazz_smifff wrote:
That line is considerably older than Dan Brown – Albert Einstein is on record as saying it, and I don’t think it originated with him.
On the other hand, I have a button that quotes that, but goes on to say ‘…. and I’d just as soon blur it.’

@ Kamino Neko:
Now, this has nothing to do with your comment about Francoonstein, amazing as it is, but your name is kamina while your avatar is Tedd?
I must confess that I didn’t realize until the last panel that the surgeon was actually Dr. Hayer. Maybe it was his expression that threw me.
@ Richard Sheaves-Bein:
he did say “The step between genius and insanity is very short.”
mind you he also said this:

Where’s Igor to turn the switch? Come on, Sandra help the doctor achieve his dream!

Meamoi wrote:
Of course your feelings and faiths are yours. But I for one find the certainty that it is not just the doctors but God as well who fight for my life quiet heartening.
And having (believing if you insist) an alternative somewhat reassuring as well.
Also, holding onto ‘we shall defeat death’ is reportedly self-deceptive. As a 20th century hungarian poet wrote: “I lived – and others have died of that as well”.
@ meName:
Note: I can not speak of experience about that certainty in a sickness. I can only speak of the experineces of others I know. And my belief. That naturally is not that strong a thing without being tested.
We can rebuild him. We have the technology. We have the capability of making the world’s first bionic raccoon-cyborg hybrid. Arcturus will be that specimen.
Just ask Gru and the Minions!
@ Dina Kitty:
Without working in government, at least.
Those lines remind me of the Trauma Center game series (“We’re not even allowed to die now.”)
Igor, pull the lever!
A spoonful of drama makes the medicine go down.
@ 627235:
Eh, not so sure. I could get a normal cast, but I could end up with a cast that shoots lasers!
