Speedy did not fare well in comic books, appearing in only one, Dell's Four Color Comics #1084 (1960). Speedy Gonzales has not been a prominent part of the Looney Tunes revival (he didn't even have a speaking role in Space Jam), possibly because of fears that he might offend members of the Hispanic community. In fact, Cartoon Network, which since 1999 has been the only television venue for the old Warner cartoons, has removed him from the daytime schedule, he can now be seen only late at night, in obscure time slots, and even then, only rarely. Such fears are apparently misguided, as Speedy is seen by Hispanic Americans as having many positive attributes. He is intelligent, he has a strong sense of justice, he is very good at what he does, and he has a healthy sense of humor. He is certainly no more offensive than Gordo, who has won his creator considerable recognition for promoting international friendship and understanding. In fact, the large and growing "Free the Mouse" movement has very strong support among Hispanic groups. Speedy Gonzales (Picture 2). Speedy Gonzales cartoon images gallery 2. Speedy Gonzales cartoon pictures collection 2. Speedy Gonzales (also spelled Gonzalez), or simply Speedy, is an animated cartoon mouse from the Warner Brothers Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of cartoons. He is portrayed as "The Fastest Mouse in all Mexico" with his major traits being the ability to run extremely fast and an exaggerated Mexican accent. He usually wears an oversized yellow sombrero, white shirt and trousers, and a red kerchief, similar to that of a reveler in the San Fermin festival. To date there have been 46 cartoons made either starring or featuring this character. Speedy debuted in 1953's Cat-Tails for Two, directed by Robert McKimson. This early Speedy was a meaner, skinnier, rattier-looking creation with a sizable gold front tooth. The cartoon featured him outwitting a smart-and-stupid pair of cats, George and Benny (parodies of George and Lenny), aboard a ship. Later on this original version of Speedy is used as an unnamed background character a couple of times.Though he was created by McKimson,the majority of the cartoons with him were directed by Friz Freling.
