Fleischer Cartoons - Greatest Hits, Volume 1

Beautifully restored in 4K, largely from original studio negatives, come 20 cartoons from legendary animation pioneer Max Fleischer in Fleischer Cartoons – Greatest Hits, Volume 1.

For over two decades, Fleischer Studios was unsurpassed in the realm of ingenious animated entertainment. Now, Volume 1 presents many of the studio’s best and funniest cartoons with a depth and clarity likely not seen since their original theatrical releases, and showcases their entire ensemble: Koko the Clown™, Bimbo™, Popeye the Sailor Man™, Superman™, and, of course, Miss Betty Boop™.

Relive the Fleischers’ art and inventions like never before, from the silent era, to the dawn of sound, to their glorious Technicolor spectacles in this carefully curated collection. Each silent short also has musical accompaniment composed and performed by Ben Model, Kevin MacLeod and Joel Pierson.

Surrealism is always on tap with Fleischer, but this is not a dream–these classics are yours to watch forever!
