Tom might be the most abused character in cartoon history. For decades the unlucky cat from Tom & Jerry has been smashed, burned, flattened, and humiliated while chasing a mouse that always escapes.
Yet despite losing almost every battle, Tom became one of the most recognizable characters in animation thanks to pure slapstick comedy. With almost no dialogue, his exaggerated reactions turned pain into comedy gold.
Which leads to a strange GOAT debate: Tom vs Scooby-Doo — silent slapstick legend or talking cartoon icon?
