Cotton Hill

Cotton Hill is a cartoon character on the animated television series King of the Hill. He is Hank Hill's father and a World War II veteran who lost his shins in combat, making him a foot shorter than his fellow family members and causing a characteristic "waddle". He is in short a "nasty little man" who talks down to women, berates his son, and is prove to violent outbursts. On a rare occasionm Cotton showns a second side, one who feels he failed as a father, hates himself for being old and disabled, and would die to protect his grandson. It was Cotton who, through tough love and intense physical therapy, taught Peggy Hill to walk again after a debilitating accident.
