Cartoon Characters: Ignatz Mouse
built 628 days ago
In the 1910s and 1920s cartoon characters, often based on comic strip characters, were becoming more common. Invented by cartoonist George Herriman, Krazy Kat was one of the most popular comic strip heroes. Krazy Kat starred in animated shorts that ... featured Ignatz Mouse and Offissa Pupp. Krazy Kat was hopelessly in love with Ignatz Mouse, and was always happy to get any attention he could from Ignatz, even if it meant being the target of flying bricks. In this comic strip, Krazy Kat makes a pie that triggers all kinds of trouble. What cartoon characters do you think of when you hear about Krazy Kat and Ignatz Mouse's adventures?

Many are translated into the major languages and are shown all over the world. Can there be a country left where nobody has heard of Mickey Mouse?

Mickey Mouse -- 70 years old in 1998 -- is getting a makeover, along with other familiar Disney cartoon characters. No more cutesy, innocuous, not-a-care-in-the-world pet mouse. MM's about to become more in-tune with his true rodency and the edgier times and become a harried, '90s creature.
