Professor Pyg

Lazlo Valentin, also known as Professor Pyg, is a former talented surgeon at Gotham General Hospital turned Gotham City criminal who conducts surgeries on his victims to make them "perfect" in his eyes.

Professor Pyg performs surgeries on his victims when he abducts them. He mutilates them beyond repair and he believes he is making them more perfect in his eyes.

Pyg's real name is Lazlo Valentin. Valentin used to work at Gotham General Hospital. He was a talented surgeon and often worked alongside Thomas Elliot. Valentin and Elliot performed surgeries on many people and saved their lives. However Elliot was getting paid more than Valentin, and this made Lazlo mad.

Lazlo donned the identity of Professor Pyg, first working alongside Penguin as a hitman. But Pyg soon rose to power and founded his own criminal gang named the Circus of Strange. Pyg then tried to perfect Elliot in revenge for getting paid more. But Pyg was stopped by Batman and that is where their rivalry began.
