| Krazy Kat (Comic Strip) | comment |
One of the classic newspaper comics of the early 20th century, Krazy Kat was published in the New York Evening Journal from 1913 to 1944. It was written and drawn by George Herriman and exhibited surreal, American Southwest-themed artwork, often focusing on aesthetics over humor. This caused the strip to alienate much of its audience; it only remained in the newspaper as long as it did because it was a favorite of Journal publisher William Randolph Hearst.The story revolves around the title character and his/her (gender is never set, and strips often switch between the two, sometimes in the middle of one comic) obsessive love with the downright evil Ignatz Mouse, who hates Krazy and loves nothing more than to throw bricks at his/her head. Krazy being, well, crazy, takes this as a sign of love. In the meanwhile, Krazy Kat is actually loved by, of all things, a dog — Offissa Bull Pupp, a police officer who is ever vigilant of Krazy and makes it his life purpose to prevent Ignatz from throwing bricks at all, hauling him off to jail when he's caught in the act.While the comic never caught on with a mainstream audience, it remains an influence to cartoonists to this day; Bill Watterson of Calvin and Hobbes fame cites it as a major influence and featured Calvin's parents admiring a Krazy Kat strip in a museum in one Sunday strip. Even before then, Ignatz himself went on to be a Mauve Shirt in the Mort Walker / Jeff Dumas vehicle, Sam's Strip in the 1960s.Collections of Krazy Kat comics were notoriously difficult to find for many years, and the first few serious attempts at complete collections were scuttled by the publishers going under. Finally, in the 2000s and 2010s, Fantagraphics managed to release a complete series of Sunday strip collections, Krazy & Ignatz.There have been several animated adaptations of Krazy Kat made; none of them came very close to the source material, however — aside from maybe this one. Krazy Kat also achieved the unusual distinction of being adapted into a jazz ballet by John Alden Carpenter. | |

Generation Xerox | |
| Krazy Kat (Comic Strip) / int_25bc8511 | comment |
Generation Xerox: This whole "brick-tossing" thing apparently started in ancient Egypt, when the "noble Roman rodent" Marcantonni Mouse and the "siren of the Nile", Kleopatra Kat, were in love. Marcantonni Mouse didn't know how to express his feelings, so he got someone to chisel a love poem on a brick and threw it at her while she was daydreaming. The rest, as they say, is history. | |

Bilingual Bonus: Spanish texts are everywhere and Spanish dialogue. In one strip involving Officer Pup and Krazy alternately popping up behind a wall, the poster on the wall is constantly changing, but it's always something in Spanish. It should be noted that in one frame where Ignatz sees Krazy, the poster reads "Ratón Muerto" es "Dead Mouse" with an image of a ratón muerto on it. | |

Gender Bender: Krazy Kat. Needless to say, a raging inversion of Tertiary Sexual Kharakteristiks as well. Reportedly, Herriman regarded Pupp, Kat, and Mouse as being "pixies" who had neither sex nor gender, feeling that such issues were rather outside the sensibilities of the strip. | |

| Krazy Kat (Comic Strip) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: One strip had Krazy telling Door Mouse how impractical it is carrying a door all the time. However, he / she fails to notice the practical uses the door has while babbling at length about how it doesn't have any, including its use as a makeshift bridge, or to fling back a brick thrown by Ignatz. | |

G-Rated Drug | |
| Krazy Kat (Comic Strip) / int_3aa2ac42 | comment |
G-Rated Drug: Tiger Tea. It makes a worm believe it is an anaconda. Even more shockingly, it gives Krazy self-confidence. Suddenly he/she is no longer passively taking bricks to the head, and instead takes the initiative, grabbing Ignatz by the tail and dragging him away. Herriman so enjoyed Tiger Tea's personality-altering characteristics that he extended the storyline to last nearly a year, making it the longest story in the strip's history. | |

| Krazy Kat (Comic Strip) / int_48d9e12d | comment |
Funetik Aksent: Krazy's extremely thick Brooklyn/New Orleans accent. Krazy's accent is meant to be the "yat" accent of New Orleans, an accent that Krazy's creator would have come into contact with and probably spoke. It sounds a lot like a Brooklyn accent, thanks largely to a very similar blend of ethnicities having settled in the area. | |

He didn't swear not to throw stones, did he? | |

Sudden Downer Ending: Some interpret the final strip as depicting Krazy drowning to death with both Officer Pupp and Ignatz crying over his still body. | |

Sleep Cute: Used many times with Krazy and Ignatz, and at least once with Ignatz and Officer Pupp! (With Krazy sleeping near them, they'd both been pretending to sleep, each hoping the other would go away, until finally the Kat up and left—at which point they shrugged their shoulders and went to sleep for real.) | |

Love at First Punch: Ignatz's repeated abuse of Krazy only deepens Krazy's love. By later in the strip (c. 1940), Ignatz seems to be in on the gag; aware that Krazy enjoys the bricks, perfectly fine with that, and willingly making dates with her just so a brick can be tossed. Really makes you wonder... | |

Antagonist in Mourning: In one Sunday strip, Krazy falls down a waterfall, and Ignatz cheers in delight. Krazy spends the rest of the strip on an underwater adventure with his "cousin" Krazy Katfish. Toward the end, we see Ignatz mourning what he believes to be the untimely loss of his enemy, sobbing into a handkerchief and lamenting the "cruel" way he treated Krazy. (This doesn't stop him from snapping out of it and smashing Krazy with a brick as soon as the Kat announces his presence.) | |

Lampshaded in a strip where Krazy suffers from a regression to normal cat behavior and tries to eat Ignatz. And to top it all off, the "catfish" and "dogfish" are portrayed as natural enemies. | |

Delivery Stork | |
| Krazy Kat (Comic Strip) / int_f1a36f8e | comment |
Delivery Stork: Joe Stork delivers all the babies; Krazy has been known to follow him when he's making his deliveries in order to be first to congratulate the parents. This partially accounts for the strip's lack of clear gender; at one point Krazy loudly "breaks up" with Ignatz as the stork walks by, explaining afterwards that he / she doesn't want Joe to take their relationship the wrong way. (Interestingly, the creator experimented with drawing Krazy as female and pregnant before he decided that the Kat should be a "sprite," neither a he or a she.) | |

Suddenly Speaking | |

Suddenly Speaking: Whether Walter Cephas Austridge is able to speak plain English or merely say "Geevim, geevim" (meaning different things, depending on context) varies. | |

Law of Inverse Fertility | |
| Krazy Kat (Comic Strip) / int_f4f3252e | comment |
Law of Inverse Fertility: Several strips concern the wealthy Mr. VanWagg-Taylor, who desperately wants an heir but whose intended children keep getting delivered to the Widow Pelona, already the mother of many, due to stork mishap. There's some fun innuendo in the way Mrs. VanWagg-Taylor reacts to seeing said widow with a child that clearly resembles her own husband. | |

Gold Digger | |
| Krazy Kat (Comic Strip) / int_f6b2bfb7 | comment |
Gold Digger: In one comic, Ignatz finds out that Krazy's aunt and uncle are planning to leave Krazy all their money. Suddenly he's very interested in Krazy, serenading the cat and bringing candy and poetry. Krazy senses that something is off and is relieved when Ignatz, finding out that the money isn't going to Krazy after all, goes back to his usual brick-throwing. | |

Have a Gay Old Time | |

Have a Gay Old Time: In this strip, Krazy refers to "making love" in the gloaming time (aka 'courting in the evening'). | |

Pet the Dog: Ignatz has the occasional moment with Krazy, to which circumstances sometimes conspire to make his attempted kindness appear to Pupp to be another attempt to toss a brick. | |
