Doctor Togg was an enemy of Hourman.
History
In his secret laboratory on Wide Island, off the New England Coast, Dr. Rocco Togg genetically engineered several monstrous new species of animals, and used them to commit some serious crimes. Hourman and his Minutemen put him out of business, explosively and seemingly fatally,[1] but Togg's apparent death was faked, using his "Radiofoto" invention.
In a later misadventure, Togg was transformed by his own "Monstroscopic Lamp," and imprisoned for decades.[2][3]

Notes
- This version of Doctor Togg, including all history and corresponding appearances, was erased from existence following the collapse of the original Multiverse in the 1985–86 Crisis on Infinite Earths event and later restored following the rebirth of the infinite Multiverse during the Dark Crisis of 2022-2023. Even though other versions of the character may have appeared, this information does not apply to those versions.
