		By that time, Hanna and Barbera had created a minor character here and there, done a non-series cartoon or two — and directed over 100 Tom and Jerry shorts, seven of which won Academy Awards.
		Instead of animating an entire figure, only those body parts that moved were animated, with the rest held steady — that way, most of the body could be treated as background, with one drawing sufficing for an entire scene.
		Like MGM, Hanna Barbera moved quickly to license its properties to comic books, starting in 1958, when Dell Comics began publishing Ruff and Reddy.
