   Love Dr. G!

   None of that kindly old doctor who works the good of humanity BS for Gym’ll.

   Dr. G was (is? will be?) irascible, lecture his patients mercilessly, and never treated anyone without mentioning his fee.

   I sense a sharp decrease in detail in this entry.

   Was Dr. G a very minor character? Did he have expertise in treating all kinds of bizarre races, or just humanoids?

   Was he better or worse than Dr. Zoidberg?

   The poor “man”?

   Gym’ll was a repeating minor character as the Legion’s doctor. Among other things, he delivered Lightning Lad and Saturn Girl’s child during a power failure, in pitch darkness and without equipment.

   “man” in the broadest sense (I knew somebody was going to call me on that one).

   Speaking of which, if the good Dr. Zoidberg doesn’t show up in at least the top 5, I’ll never speak to you again.
