Keep, it's a notable creation by a notable creator. Stephens is the subject of a lengthy TCJ interview but alas it's a gap in my collection otherwise I could use it to fill out the article. The Journal has praised The Land of Nod, the comic where the character first appeared "(as if) Hanna-Barbera dealt with existential angst and deconstructuralism", but I need to track the issue for a citation. The issue also sees
Bela Kiss join a group of super-villains against the character, where he is openly mocked for his name, per Rosenfield, Depravity: A Narrative of 16 Serial Killers. It was also an animated cartoon.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep There's a couple of sources already there, I found
this which was apparently published in the Montreal Gazette (I can't verify that because the Gazette's archives are a PITA to get anything from and locked behind a paywall anyway). Between them and Hiding's source I think there's enough.
