Notes
- Dogwelder never speaks and he never shows his face.
- In Prime Earth, Dogwelder's successor (Dogwelder II) travels to the Pyramids of Egypt and is subsequently transported to the Dogwelder afterlife. Here it is implied in that there have been many others in the past, all inflicted with the same curse by Anubis.
- He is often cited as being "possibly psychotic or schizophrenic", with no evidence to confirm either claim; as such, it is most likely a colloquial misunderstanding caused by stigmatization, since people with psychoses or schizo-spectrum conditions are almost exclusively represented by unrealistically dangerous, psychopathic, or erratic characters in media.
