Introducing Your Grandpa's Cartoons
Ever since mankind has gotten its hands on paint, we've drawn all kinds of things. Early humans drew pictures of the hunt, marveling at the power of the beasts during the hunt; immortalizing them in caves. Ancient Greece and the Renaissance marveled at mankind's beauty. And as much as art shows beauty, it also shows the ugliness. All the gore, the drinking, the sex, and the racism and other vices are alive in art. And cartoons are no different. I'm sure you've heard of Ren and Stimpy and all of it's raunchiness. And anime doesn't shy away from gore either. But, not many people know about the dark history of Peter Pan or the perversion of some early cartoons. It's a look into the history of your grandpa's cartoons.
