Meyers' first full cartoon was "Steamboat Itchy" in 1928. He was later criticized for his film Nazi Supermen Are Our Superiors (a reference to Walt Disney's supposed anti-Semitism) and he also made musical films like Scratchtasia (a clear parody of Fantasia) and Pinitchio (Pinocchio). In "The Day the Violence Died", it was revealed that Meyers had not invented Itchy and had instead stolen the character from Chester Lampwick. In fact, Meyers stole almost every character he ever used since he apparently couldn't draw anything but simple stick figures.
