Marmaduke Mouse

    (Quality, 1946-1956, 1962)
™ and ©1952 Arnold Publications

Although sometimes regarded as a rip-off of Tom & Jerry, Marmaduke Mouse had a quirky charm that was uniquely its own. Granted, the stories did follow a simple formula: Hapless Marmaduke blunders from adventure to adventure trying to bail his friend (and employer), loony King Louie the lion, out of trouble. But like many of the best funny animal comics and cartoons, Marmaduke Mouse held a fun-house mirror up to contemporary American society in the 1950s. Some stories revolved around a growing obsession with television (and some of the characters featured were thinly disguised representations of many celebrities of the day, including Milton Berle), the rise of suburban sprawl, and even the threat of communism. When Quality Comics folded and DC bought most of its properties, Marmaduke Mouse was canceled and never revived as a comic—but the character did enjoy some limited popularity in a series of B-level cartoons.
