Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse was a children's cartoon television show that was syndicated in 1960. The characters were created by Bob Kane as a parody of his earlier works, Batman and Robin. In the series, the pair are superheroes who thwart the crime plots of various villains by using their all-purpose Catgun and rushing to the scenes of the crime in their Catmobile. The animated series had 130 episodes. The duo always fought against enemies like the evil kingpin Mr. Frog, whose voice was based on Edward G. Robinson, or Big Shot, whose voice was based on James Cagney. Dal McKennon and Bob McFadden provided the voices for the series. The entire series was released to DVD on October 29, 2002 by A&E Home Video.
