If you talk about cartoons, they can be characterized as comic and animated. Many of us are sadly mistaken believing Mickey Mouse was the first cartoon character ever.
The yellow kid is considered to be the first comic cartoon to appear on a comic strip. Yellow kid was the lead character of Hogan Alley (cartoon strip) for Truth magazine. His first appearance was in 1894.
The Yellow Kid was a bald, snaggle-toothed child who wore a yellow nightshirt and hung around in a ghetto alley filled with equally odd characters, mostly other children. With a goofy grin, the Kid habitually spoke in a ragged, peculiar ghetto argot printed on his shirt, a device meant to lampoon advertising billboards.
Gertie the Dinosaur is the first cartoon animation to feature a character with an appealing personality in animation film history. Winsor McCoy was the creator of the 12 minute film and first cartoon character. The movie released in 1914. Gertie is a cartoon dinosaur resembling Brontosaurus. Gertie is acclaimed to be the first animated cartoon character ever.
