Mighty Mouse Mug '77

Time to make a toast, as well as a post, to a whole new month of posts-- a post toasties, if you will! And a shot of the new Major Melon Watermelon flavor Mountain Dew served up ice cold in my new Mighty Mouse Terrytoons mug from 1977 is just the ticket to get this freezin' February off with a sugary swoosh of fun! "HERE I COME TO SAVE THE DAAAAYYYYY!"

  1. Artwork appears to be taken from this comic book.

    Note the color change on the villain.

  2. For once, take control of your own life and save yourself! Mighty Mouse might need his own time, you know!

    For '77 that mug is in fine shape, especially one that was probably owned by a kid!

  3. Definitely a different artist altogether though.

    Forgot to mention, one thing that is hard to see in my pix is that the characters (and the big yellow flying swoosh) have a slightly raised, puffy / beveled effect on the cup sides that you can actually feel.

  4. Sweet mug. I like how it tells a two-panel story.

  5. Yes, the cover artist and story artist are different people--Not at all uncommon in mainstream comics.
