“Monsters Lead Such Interesting Lives” – Daffy Duck

From the 1930s-1950s, no movie show was complete without a cartoon, and no cartoon was complete without an established character like Bugs Bunny or a caricature of a celebrity, or preferably both. In the same period, Universal Studios dominated the horror genre with its Classic Monsters: Dracula, Frankenstein’s Monster, the Mummy, the Invisible Man, the Wolf Man, the Phantom of the Opera, and the Creature from the Black Lagoon. It was inevitable that the monsters would make appearances in contemporaneous animation, and the tradition continues today in television shows like The Simpsons.

Matthew Hahn, author of The Animated Marx Brothers and The Animated Peter Lorre, has found over a thousand cartoons featuring the monsters in movies, TV, commercials, music videos, computer games, and fan films, including abandoned projects, coincidences, connections, and apocrypha. The monsters’ animated avatars play opposite Mickey Mouse, Porky Pig, Daffy Duck, Mighty Mouse, Woody Woodpecker, Mr. Magoo, the Pink Panther, Kaibutsu-kun, Beany and Cecil, Inspector Gadget, Spider-Man, the Super Friends, Scooby-Doo, the Transformers, Ghostbusters, Muppet Babies, Garfield, Tiny Toons, Animaniacs, Rocko, the Fantastic Four, Freakazoid, Catdog, SpongeBob Squarepants, Patrick Star, Billy and Mandy, Squidbillies, Tom and Jerry, Doraemon, Phineas and Ferb, Cleveland Brown, Uncle Grandpa, the Venture Bros., the Incredible Hulk, Teen Titans, Mr. Bean, Rick and Morty, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Abbott and Costello. They have appeared in Mad Monster Party? (1967), the Hotel Transylvania franchise, Minions (2015), the Monster High franchise, the Groovie Goolies franchise, The Munsters franchise, the Castlevania franchise, Family Guy (1999), Futurama (1999), The Fairly OddParents (2001), Robot Chicken (2005), Mary Shelley’s Frankenhole (2010). Creators include Walt Disney, Frank Tashlin, Paul Terry, Chuck Jones, Tex Avery, Dave Fleischer, Walter Lantz, Bob Clampett, Tom Ruegger, and Butch Hartman.

Illustrated. Includes index, notes, and bibliography. This book should be on the shelf of all animation aficionados, classic movie fans, gamers, pop culture enthusiasts, history buffs, and lovers of fun facts.

LIBRARY JOURNAL BOOK REVIEW:
Hahn (The Animated Peter Lorre) conducts a  comprehensive  survey  of  Uni-Toons,  the  animated appearances of Universal's classic movie monsters in cartoons, movies, video games, internet shorts, and more. . . He also displays a sense of humor and a love of wordplay. . . Hahn's hilarious writing style . . . makes this one of the more amusing film reference works available."

Great for a growing kid
Size: Large, Color: Sky Blue, Size: Large, Color: Sky Blue
Good quality for a good price. My teen is outgrowing his medium clothes and into larges so it fit slightly big which I expected but that just means he should be able to wear it to his fall dance as well. Nice material, not see through at all even after dancing all night and sweating. Exact color blue as pictured. Very happy over all.

Great shirt for the price.
Size: 4X-Large Big Tall, Color: Sky Blue
Shirt fit perfectly and was true to size. The material seems to be of a good quality for the price, and it is surprisingly light weight when worn. I use these as daily shirts, and have only used it once so far. Did well after washing and required little to no ironing out of the dryer. Very impressed with the item so far.

Perfect for my teenage son.
Size: Small, Color: Blue White Pinstripe
My son has worn this shirt many times to temple for bar mitzvah services. It’s soft doesn’t wrinkle easily and very comfortable for him to wear. He receives many compliments on it. This is a relatively thin shirt sizing was accurate. Fabric is what I would consider Nice quality. Color is spot on.

Surprising quality for such a cheap item
Size: 4X-Large Big Tall, Color: Navy White Diamond Geo
Surprisingly good fit. The material is a bit thin and if you're wearing it on a cold day, I would recommend an undershirt. The collars could use a good starching for a more modern look. As it stands with an open jacket, the large collar makes it look a little dated. If you have 20 dollars and need a shirt you could certainly do worse.
