Doctor Omega is a fictional character created by French writer Arnould Galopin for his science fiction novel Le Docteur Oméga (1906), visibly inspired by H. G. Wells' novels The War of the Worlds and The First Men in the Moon.
The illustrations of Doctor Omega, in the original publication, bear a great resemblance to the first incarnation of the Doctor, as portrayed by William Hartnell in the long-running BBC science-fiction series Doctor Who.

Famous quotes containing the word doctor:
“The conscience of the world is so guilty that it always assumes that people who investigate heresies must be heretics; just as if a doctor who studies leprosy must be a leper. Indeed, it is only recently that science has been allowed to study anything without reproach.”
—Aleister Crowley (1875–1947)
