Oat Willie is an Underground comix character that was created by Gilbert Shelton. Oat Willie was initially named “Overly Thoughtful” or “O.T.”. He came to be called “Oat Willie” because his feet would permanently be stuck in a barrel of oats. Accepting this fact, he added wheels for mobility and continued a crusade of social and environmental consciousness.
