Cubitus

Cubitus is a Franco-Belgian comics series, and the basis for the Wowser cartoon series appearing in the United States.

Cubitus is known as Dommel in Flanders and the Netherlands, Muppelo or Pom Pom in Finland, Teodoro in Italy, Zıpır in Turkey and Доммель in Russia. His name derives from the old anatomical name of the ulna bone, supposedly derived from the Greek kybiton (elbow).
