The Evolution of Animation and Its Dark Corners

This chapter explores the transition of a comic strip to animator Pat Solomon and his creative challenges in the early 1900s, including his struggles with alcoholism. It further delves into the history of animation, the experiences of various artists, and the impact of war on their narratives. The discussion also addresses troubling incidents within the industry and a unique legal case that humorously juxtaposes cartoon logic with real-life consequences.
