History: (Uncanny Tales I#9/2 (fb)-BTS) - At some point, Dr. Feeny developed a "wonder serum" that, when injected, could keep a body and head alive, even when separated. He used it on himself.

(Uncanny Tales I#9/2) - After watching his fellow surgeons lose a patient, Feeny chided them, boasting how he could have saved the man. The other doctors wanted nothing to do with Feeny, believing him to be insane. Later, a reporter named Gill confronted Feeny and asked him what he meant when he talked about his method. Feeny told Gill about his wonder serum, and to prove it, cut the head off a live chicken. He then injected the dismembered chicken's parts with the serum, and they returned to life. Gill ran in terror from the sight. Feeny, upset over how no one would take him seriously, destroyed his notes regarding the formula.

Comments: Created by Reed Crandall.

Hmm, wonder how they missed this guy when they created the Headmen...
