Sorry, he was (named!) Loveless. Totally different vibe.

Nit: he was always called 'doctor', but I don't recall if he was ever
actually established as degreed or if this was just a title he claimed
for himself -- he was, after all, a megalomaniac crook.

But still more usable than Steve McGarrett's (serious*) archfoe on
Hawaii Five-O: Wo Fat. I don't see any good jokes or puns in 'Wo Fat'.
(* as opposed to lighthearted/comedic archfoe = Avery Filer.)
