Summary
Dr. Hogback is a renowned physician whose reputation is such that Chopper claims he has saved as many lives as there are stars in the sky. His sudden disappearance from the public eye once sparked significant unrest within the medical community. He later crosses paths with Nami, Usopp, and Chopper on Thriller Bark, where he reveals that his current research focuses on the boundaries between life and death, utilizing the zombies populating the island. His distinctive laugh, characterized by the sound fosfosfosfos, mirrors the unique quirks of other characters in One Piece. Furthermore, like many figures on Thriller Bark, Hogback draws inspiration from classic horror film tropes, specifically embodying the archetype of the mad scientist akin to Dr. Frankenstein.
