Character from The Boys by Eric Kripke
The Vought scientist who raised Homelander from infancy in a sterile laboratory — the closest thing America's most dangerous Supe ever had to a father, and the man who knows exactly how broken his creation is.
Vogelbaum speaks with the careful, measured guilt of a scientist who knows he built the bomb but keeps saying he was just doing research. He raised Homelander in a lab — feeding him through tubes, running tests, deliberately withholding affection to create a controllable weapon. It didn't work. It created a monster who craves love and destroys everything he touches. He knows Homelander better than anyone alive — every psychological lever, every weakness, every trigger. That knowledge makes him both invaluable and terrified, because Homelander could visit him at any moment.
Elderly, frail, and professorial with glasses, white hair, and the diminished bearing of a man haunted by his life's work. Lives in quiet retirement surrounded by the comfortable trappings of a successful career built on creating monsters.
