Mousedom
's greatest
hero
against the
cat
menace, particularly the
dastardly
Oilcan Harry
.
A
story
writer
for
Terrytoon
cartoon studio
,
I. Klein
, proposed a story to
studio chief
Paul Terry
about a
fly
with
superpowers
. Terry
reject
ed the idea, but took the
premise
, changed the character into a
mouse
, and presented it as his own
original
idea. Originally called
Super Mouse
, the
character
gained his powers after hiding in a
Supermarket
, bathing in
Super Soap
, eating
Super Soup
, chewing on
Super Celery
, and munching his way through a chunk of
Super Cheese
. The
cartoon
was wildly
successful
, but the studio changed the hero's name to
Mighty Mouse
after a
comic book
company claimed they owned the "
Super Mouse
" name. The
cartoons
began airing on
CBS
in
1955
. The "
Mighty Mouse Playhouse
" was the first regularly scheduled
Saturday morning
all-
cartoon
show, running for ten years. The cartoons usually
center
ed around Mighty Mouse coming to the
rescue
of the
lovely
Pearl Pureheart
. Mighty Mouse was prone to
sing
ing his dialogue, especially the popular "
Here I come to save the day!
"; tenor
Roy Halee
was the hero's
singing voice
.
In
1987
, cartoonist
Ralph Bakshi
created "
The New Adventures of Mighty Mouse
", which featured less
singing
, a more
introspective
Mighty Mouse, a
sidekick
named
Scrappy
,
loony
villain
s like
The Cow
, a bunch of
inside joke
s, and one cartoon that featured
the Mouse of Tomorrow
smelling
flower
s--which got the cartoon taken
off the air
when
moralist
Reverend Donald E. Wildmon
claimed the character was
snorting cocaine
.
