Hey everyone!
Question that is driving me absolutely bonkers. I used to watch Looney Tunes and all those cartoons when I was younger, and I distinctly remember an igor-like character with puffy eyes, big lips, and a weird voice who looked mildly like Cole Porter in a strange way user added image

Now, I used to have nightmares about this character coming into my room, so for all I know, he could have ONLY been from my nightmares; but I sure hope not.

Either way, if you all have any idea, I would really love to find out.

Thanks so much!

LATE REPLY. I'm right on the border between Los Angeles, and Santa Monica. Nice area, just not much to do close by!

Ben, next time you're in area check out Venice/Venice Beach, Santa Monica, Hermosa Beach, and Redondo Beach, all happening spots away from the hub-bub of downtown L.A.

Venice/Venice Beach actually has quite a few graphic artist shops/render houses on Abbot Kinney Blvd.
