Colonel Heeza Liar
Colonel Heeza Liar is the star of the first animated series featuring a recurring character. He was created by J. R. Bray[1] and is mainly based on Theodore Roosevelt[2] and the general stereotype of the 19th and early 20th century former adventurer and lion hunter. The series ran from 1913 to 1917 and restarted in 1922 until 1924.[3] It was produced by Bray Productions and directed by Vernon Stallings.[4] The series was animated by Walter Lantz from 1922 to 1924 and featured live-action segments interacting with the animation, much like the popular contemporary series Out of the Inkwell.
