Koko the Clown discovers a machine that can make cartoons.
Ko-Ko the Clown thinks being a hero is easy, but his animator tries to prove him otherwise
Part of the 'Inkwell Imps' series.
When a beautiful princess escapes from the ink bottle, only to be captured by a villainous knave, Max draws a stove which he has Ko-Ko use as armor, inflates Fitz into a destrier and sends them off in a deed of daring-do.
This fascinating series features Max himself, filmed in live action, sitting at a drawing board and concocting adventures for his star performer Ko-Ko the Clown. Max is supposedly the guy in charge, and he takes sadistic glee in putting Ko-Ko through various forms of hell, but the clown usually fights back and sometimes gets the best of his Uncle Max. FADEAWAY elevates this charged relationship to new heights (or depths?) of nightmarish surrealism; it's also one of the most enjoyable Inkwell cartoons I've seen to date, packing lots of imaginative, unpredictable twists and turns into an eight minute running time.
Koko is trying to rescue his sweetheart, who is trapped atop a rugged mountain. However, when Max Fleischer runs out of ink, how will he draw the ladder for Koko to climb?
In 'Ko-Ko's Queen,' Ko-Ko the Clown brings his cartoon drawings to life, leading to unexpected surprises and transformations. When an ugly woman wants a makeover, Ko-Ko uses his artistic skills to give her a beautiful new appearance. This surreal and humorous film explores themes of transformation and the power of art.
This Out of the Inkwell cartoon features the Fleischer Studios continuing character, Ko-Ko, seeming to draw himself, and to battle with the environment created for him. It speaks to the self-referentiality of early animation, and to the creation of characters who are made to rebel against their makers.
Koko the Clown and Fitz the dog escape into the live-action world.
