The characters in cartoons are very diverse. Cartoon characters have varied from dwarfs to small mice. Some cartoon characters have special power such as superman who can fly and has super speed. A character such as Voltron is a machine and consists of many different sections. Many characters were the first the world has ever seen.

Cartoons such as Scooby-Doo were the first of it’s kind. A none-too-brave Great Dane named Scooby-Doo joins four teenage sleuths (Fred, Daphne, Velma, and Shaggy) as they travel the countryside in their van, the Mystery Machine. As this cartoon progress Scooby-Doo is joined by a fearless pup named Scappy-Doo who seems eager to take on any monster. “Scappy-Doo was a very good addition

Spawning from this wacky catoons a cartoon called Jabberjaw came out. Sounding suspiciously like Curly Horward of the Three Stooges, Jabberjaw is a dumb but lovable Great White shark. He is the mascot and the drummer of the Neptunes, a teenage rock group that live in an underwater civilization of the future. The 1976 series ran for 16 episodes on abc, and was created by Joe Ruby and Ken Spears. This cartoon looked very much like Scooby-doo.

Another ground breaking cartoon is the smurf. On October 23, 1958 the Smurfs made their first appearance in a story of Johan & Peewit in “Le Journal de Spirou”. Their creator Peyo had worked previously at a number of drawing jobs. But the introduction of the Smurfs into Spirou would change his life.

By the end of the show Scooby-Doo and the gang as foiled the plans of the “bad guy” and save the day once more. The characters in "Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!" were inspired by both the "I Love a Mystery" radio show, and the cast of the TV sitcom "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis." The innovative production design was by Iwao Takamoto. Twenty-five episodes were produced for this initial series, which aired in 1969-1970 as the anchor of CBS’s Saturday Morning line-up. Scooby-Doo was an instant ratings success, and has spawned many other Scooby series over the years.

“At first, the Smurfs were just secondary characters. But they soon became stars in their own right” says creator Peyo. After a few mini-albums, their tales began to appear as full albums. Then the film “The Smurfs and the Magic Flute” appeared, with music by Michel Legrand (he also sang in the chorus ).
