I've been playing lots of Persona 5 Royal for the past few weeks and I frigging love it. With an emphasis on classic literature characters being summons, such as Zorro and Arsene Lupin, I wanted to add some old pulp characters to the mix. I have plans for adding in The Shadow later on.
I put his name as an homage to the theory on the Wold Newton family/Crossover Universe group that Doc Arden was an alias for Doc Savage (Doc Arden was a French precursor to Doc Savage) and I added the reference of him having two belts to Planetary's Doc Savage expy, Doc Brass.
