Q: In reading the first book of the Disney series, Kingdom Keepers, I noticed that it describes a newspaper cartoon that came out after Walt had passed. The next time I went to One Man’s Dream at Hollywood Studios after that, I noticed that the drawing was not there. The description in the book says, “The poster was a sketch of the earth with Mickey Mouse ears. The earth was crying.” I’m just wondering is there such a poster, and is it still around?

A: The editorial cartoon of the earth, with Mickey Mouse ears, crying, was drawn by artist Karl Hubenthal for the now-defunct Los Angeles Herald-Examiner on December 16, 1966.
