1) #KrazyKat by George Herriman
2) #Peanuts (Schulz was right to hate this name) by Charles M. Schulz
3) #LittleNemoInSlumberland by Windsor McCay
4) #Popeye by E.C. Segar

Hi folks! I'm #WinsorMcCay. I was born in East Zorra Township in SW Ontario way back in Sep 1867... so I guess that makes me (barely) Canadian, eh? I created Little Nemo In #Slumberland in 1905 but I received no screen credit in the most excellent Francis Lawrence adaptation. Now does that seem fair to you?
The two most important people in animation are Winsor McCay & #WaltDisney... and I'm not sure which should go first.
