  Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Mutt and Jeff
Mutt enjoyed gambling at the racetrack (which is why, like Fisher's earlier work, the strip appeared in the sports section, back before daily papers had comics pages), but had to answer to his shrewish wife for this avocation.
Mutt's easygoing dimwittedness contrasted to great comic effect with the fact that Jeff was certifiably insane (they first met in a mental institution).
Nonetheless, Mutt & Jeff became an early success in animation (the first of hundreds of silent cartoons was released Feb. 10, 1913), which only increased Fisher's wealth, distancing him even further from the strip itself.

Reinforcing the tough Mutt approach, the Sri Lankan airforce systematically bombed hospitals, churches, temples and other civilian targets in the Tamil homeland.
The trouble, however, with the tactics of Jeff and Mutt is that, though directed to serve the same end, they are mutually contradictory.
