To complete the ambience, Vincent dressed up as though he too were an Egyptian.
But within the reality of Toobworld, I think there was more to his costume......
I think Vincent was paying tribute to a costumed criminal who terrorized Gotham City on five

Knowing what would happen to him whenever he was struck on the head, Professor McElroy tried in vain to prevent it from happening. But it was no use - he'd be bonked on the noggin and find himself in Gotham City as King Tut, where he would do battle with the Dynamic Duo, Batman & Robin.

The tale of such a wayward genius might well attract the attention of a young man of similar

William Omaha McElroy was portrayed by Victor Buono, who died too soon at the age of 43, back in the early 1980s. But that's not to say that the same holds true for any TV characters that he played. So it could be that Professor McElroy is still alive in Toobworld, and that he even still holds the Chair of Egyptology at Yale University.
Considering that Vincent is something of a genius himself - or else he'd never be in the town of Eureka! - perhaps he might even be related to McElroy himself......
