Mr. Wikles, also spelt Mr. Wickles, is notable for being the first villain in the Scooby-Doo animated franchise. He was the curator of the county museum and dressed up as the Black Knight to scare visitors away during his art forgery scheme. He is voiced by Don Messick.
There is also a live-action version called Jeremiah "Old Man" Wickles, who had served his time in prison after committing a crime in Coolsville as the Black Knight Ghost, and wanted to turn a shut down mining town into an amusement park. He also owned an ancestral mansion.
Character description
Wikles is a fairly short, overweight and middle-aged male. While bald on top of his head, his remaining hair is black, and he wears round and thick-framed black glasses. As the Black Knight, he wears a medieval armor with a heavy plating, yellow eyes, and a red plume on its helmet.
Wikles appears to be good-natured, as he told the gang of Professor Hyde White's disappearance. However, his claim would make him appear more suspicious by the gang during their investigation of the case.

Original Series
At the town's museum, Wikles thanked the gang for bringing the Black Knight ghost statue to him. He then tells the gang that they shouldn't have with the mysterious disappearance of the professor, and because of the legend that the Black Knight coming to life at the full moon.
He was eventually unmasked as the Black Knight, once the gang found out what his scheme at the museum was after they suspected him. He was working on counterfeit paintings and switching them for the real ones at the museum. Because Professor Hyde White was the only one who spotted the fake paintings Wikles made, he kidnapped the professor and made up the legend of the Black Knight to cover it up. During his forgery scheme, he would put on a suit of armor and scare people away from the museum.
