Oh man.

His Krazy Kat shorts were actually pretty gud. Aside from turning Krazy into a deliciously thick female with a very sexy voice, the shorts were faithful to the comics.

The Deitch shorts were pure psychedelic kino that plebs couldn't understand

This literally couldn't be made today. SJWs would lose their collective minds.

I'm sure he made plenty of good non tom and jerry cartoons, so alas
but he really shouldn't have been head of tom and jerry

will his studio go on

Because of the shorts giving Krazy a defined gender or because of Ignatz throwing bricks at Krazy?

Because a female character getting abused by a male character and she loves him for it. It would be unthinkable today.

The reason why Ignatz does it kinda makes sense. Ignatz is canonically married with kids, and Krazy is literally a creepy stalker.

The problem is that in many of them, tom and Jerry seemed like extra addition with no real impact on anything.

F Rest in peace.

I thought it was Chuck Jones who ruined Tom and Jerry?

He improved it a bit

>you didn't really like as a kid.
I actually did enjoy them.

After Hanna barbera left in 1958, it was never the same. Even when Bill and joe themselves returned to their series in 1975, the results were bad (Tom and jerry are friends). They said it was like a curse was put on their characters, that even they couldn't get it right post-1958.

Dammit, I loved his Nudnik shorts.

RIP to a real G.
His son Kim Deitch is a comic creator and quite old himself, 75 years old.

I love his son Kim's work. He's only 20 years younger than his dad.

He recently released a new graphic novel Reincarnation Stories.

Why?

I liked the one short where they where in a space station.

His style wasn't apt for Tom and Jerry but his original stuff like lauded.

Didn't we JUST have a thread shitting on him a day or two ago?

Watching cartoons while you're high on acid doesn't make you a patrician, user.

Anyone else ever watch this?
