Professor Utonium

Professor Utonium is the brilliant scientist and loving father figure who accidentally created the Powerpuff Girls — Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup — by mixing sugar, spice, and everything nice with the mysterious Chemical X.

Few characters in comics carry quite the same warm, paternal energy as Professor Utonium, who made his DC Comics debut in The Powerpuff Girls #34 in 2003, brought to the page by the creative team of Dan Slott and Phil Moy. A fixture of the Modern Age Cartoon Network comics universe, he shares his adventures with some of the most beloved small-screen-to-page heroes around — Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup — as well as the mischievous Mojo Jojo and Townsville's ever-reliant Mayor. Across The Powerpuff Girls, Cartoon Network Block Party, and Cartoon Network Super Sampler, he's a steady, reassuring presence threading through a decade of all-ages comics fun. With 14 catalog appearances, he's a charming piece of the Cartoon Network comics tapestry that any fan of the era will want to revisit.
