Hello Boomerang-Fans.
So may of us lve the King Feature Cartoon; I was wondering how many would like to see them in Boomerang. So if you would live to cast your vote here some of the cadidates cartoons from the 60s to the 80s.
Please choose the one that appear must nostargic to you.
Beetle Bailey (1963)
http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00000429/beetlebailey2.jpg http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00000429/beetlebailey5.jpg http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00000429/beetlebailey6.jpg
Beetle Bailey, the half-asleep soldier who only kept his eyes open for work, and only so he could avoid it. Beetle's main foil at Camp Swampy was Sgt. Orville Snorkel, a tough regular army man who was often bested by Beetle. The commanding officer on the quiet base was the lisping Gen. Halftrack, who concerned himself more with his golf game than with his troops.
Cool McCool (1966)
http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00000834/coolmccool13.jpg http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00000834/coolmccool18.jpg http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00000834/coolmccool19.jpg
Batman creator Bob Kane was the man behind this spy spoof/comedic adventure, which featured the animated exploits of Cool McCool, a gadget-wielding, trenchcoat-clad, 007-type who fought against an array of bizarre villains. Unlike the eternally smooth James Bond, however, Cool's dashing looks belied his bumbling manner.
Cool’s boss, Number One, dispensed orders without ever being seen on camera, an idea which predated Charlie’s Angels by a decade. Borrowing from yet another literary source, Number One’s secretary was referred to as Friday.
A recognizable predecessor to Inspector Gadget, Cool used an assortment of gadgets—including a mustache radio—to combat such foes as Gretta Ghoul, the Rattler, Madcap, the Owl, the Jack-in-the-Box and Hurricane Harry. But despite his ineptitude, Cool often earned his name. Driving around in the "Coolmobile," wearing an ascot, and routinely uttering the catch phrase, “Danger is my business,” our hero occasionally rivaled even the Fonz in his level of coolness.
Another segment on the show featured Cool’s dad, Harry McCool. The segment, Pop the Cop, proved the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Harry was a member of the inept Komedy Kops, a knock-off of the old-time Keystone Kops.
Krazy Kat (1963)
http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00001998/krazykat.jpg http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00001998/krazykat4.jpg http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00001998/krazykat5.jpg
Krazy Kat was a bizarre cartoon starring the oddly drawn feline of the title. Krazy lived in Kokonimo Kounty and was in love with a sociopathic mouse named Ignatz. What Krazy saw in this dangerous brick-throwing rodent was never explained, much like the attraction of policedog Offisa Pup to Krazy. This part of the show really needs to be seen to be believed.
Popeye the Sailor (60's) (1961)
http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00002884/popeye3.jpg http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00002884/popeye4.jpg http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00002884/popeye6.jpg
With the success of the animated Popeye in 1960, the newspaper syndicate that owned the comic strip decided to animate some of their other popular characters under the
blanket title The King Features Trilogy.
Snuffy Smith and Barney Google (1963)
http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00003350/snuffysmithandgoogle.jpg http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00003350/snuffysmithandgoogle3.jpg
Snuffy Smith, was about a loveable Hillbilly, who hated people invading his property and loved Moonsine. His second love was his rarely appreciated wife Loweezy. Snuffy's city
cousin, Barney Google, sometimes made guest appearances.
Hagar the Horrible: "Hagar Knows Best" (1989)
http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00001560/hagarthehorribleknowsbestlogo.jpg http://www.dvdtoons.com/screenshots/reviews/Beetle3.jpg http://www.dvdtoons.com/screenshots/reviews/Beetle4.jpg
Hagar the Horrible's life is in a tailspin when he returns from a long voyage to find his wife, Helga, has let their children, Honey and Hamlet, run amak. Honey's engaged to a traveling minstel named Lute instead of some burly, helmet-wearing heathen. And scrawny Hamlet has gotten himself kicked out of the Viking Academy and learned to do something no self-respenting Viking would dare-- read and write poetry. Hagar is flabbergasted and decides to take charge. He'll teach his kids the Viking ways or else!
Betty Boop's Hollywood Mystery (1989)
http://www.dvdtoons.com/screenshots/reviews/Beetle5.jpg http://www.dvdtoons.com/screenshots/reviews/Beetle6.jpg
Betty Boop, Bimbo and Koko the Clown are trying to become movie stars, but in order to pay the rent, they take a job with crafty detevtive Sam Slade guarding one of Hollywood's most famous leading ladies, Lola DeVille. When Lola's jewels are stolen, it's up to Betty and her pals to find the crooks. Their chase takes them through Hollywood's famed Moolah Studios, where Maxwell Moviola is shooting a film. He takes a liking to Betty, but our heroine puts Me. Moviola on hold until she cracks the case.
