Mickey Mouse Once Tried to Commit Suicide

Here's something way off the mark. As a fan of sequential art, I always find something interesting about the history of long established characters such as superman, batman, or spiderman. This time it's Mickey Mouse. During the 1930's, to capitalize on the success of the character in the cartoon movie, Walt Disney decided to also put the character in a comic strip. The strip was drawn and written by Floyd Gottfredson. One of the strip tells the story where Mickey was upset with his relationship with Minnie and decided to commit suicide, although in a comical way. You can read the whole strip right here. It goes to show how sense of humor evolves over time. Mickey Mouse used to be very funny.
