I’ve heard of this cartoon, but I didn’t know all these facts about it. It’s so interesting that the original character was inspired by Mark Twain’s writing :)

I remember watching this in the early 80s with my grandad (his favourite) and wondering how anyone could come up with so many ideas how a coyote could be unable to catch the road runner. I loved the characters as many other cartoon characters form that time. I think this was a part of why I became an artist, copy drawing them so young. I never knew all the history though until now and it brings a little bit of life to the characters and the journey the creators and the characters had to make this amazing animation. Thank you for sharing.
