The Shmoo was created by Al Capp more than 75 years ago and it's impossible to really get across to anyone who wasn't there just what a phenomenon the characters turned out to be. They re-appeared off and on well into the 1960s and even ended up with a Saturday morning cartoon in the mid-70s. As the last article here attests, though, the Shmoo was all but forgotten by 2001. Boy, we could use 'em now, though.
