Darrell Dog (Johnsonverse)

Darrell David Dog is a funny animal cartoon character. He was created for the Ludicrous Limericks series of theatrical shorts for Johnson Studios by Gerald Jankowski in 1926.

Designed as a tongue-in-cheek parody of funny animal characters of the time, Darrell is optimistic, energetic, and upbeat, with a high-pitched voice, and never holds grudges against even the worst of his enemies. After Chocodile became the series' new headliner, Darrell was repurposed as his comic relief, but was retired by 1971. Starting in 1984 with The Cool Adventures of Chocodile, the character was brought back, and has been seen in many projects to this day.
