Hootie (Earth-2: Post-Crisis)

"It's Doctor Mid-Nite's owl. There's something special about him. I don't know what, but every time we'd come here, that owl, he'd fly right to Doctor Mid-Nite and land on his arm. He doesn't know Doctor Mid-Nite's dead. He's been waiting for him for years."

- Pat Dugan to Courtney Whitmore
