#BETTY BOOP ORIGINAL CHARACTER SERIES#
In the Betty Boop series he is best friends with Bimbo the dog, and is usually paired up with him. Koko was later merged into the Betty Boop series starting from 1931. It was in a Talkartoons film with Bimbo in the leading role that Betty Boop made her first appearance in 1930 and later became the Studios headliner. The Fleischer Studios launched a new series called Talkartoons featuring a majority of characters including Bimbo who not only replaced Koko’s silent dog friend Fitz, but also had adventures of his own and quickly became a star in his own right. Koko's last silent film was Chemical Koko. After tracing the film footage amounting to 2,500 drawings and a year's work Koko the Clown was born and appeared in a cartoon series titled Out of the Inkwell from 1918-1929. To test out his new invention Fleischer photographed his brother Dave in a clown costume. Koko the Clown originated when Max Fleischer invented the rotoscope, a device which allowed for animation to be more lifelike by tracing motion picture footage of human movement.
