Dr. Claw is a fictional character and the main antagonist from the animated television series Inspector Gadget. He is known for his menacing appearance, often depicted with a mechanical claw for a hand and a shadowy figure that obscures his face. Dr. Claw is the leader of the criminal organization M.A.D. and frequently devises elaborate schemes to defeat Inspector Gadget. Despite his intelligence and cunning, Dr. Claw often fails in his plans due to the incompetence of his henchmen, particularly Penny and her dog Brain, who work to thwart his evil intentions. His catchphrase, "I'll get you next time, Gadget!" highlights his ongoing rivalry with the bumbling detective.
