Woody Woodpecker Coloring Sheet
In the earliest cartoons, he was essentially Lantz’s answer to Daffy Duck and Bugs Bunny, being a strange hybrid of the two characters, with the energy, quirkiness, looniness, and demented nature of Classic Daffy merged with hints of the wiseacre attitude of Bugs—also enforced by the fact that they even got Bugs’ and Daffy’s voice actor for the first three cartoons! After the first batch of cartoons however, the wiseacre bit of Woody Woodpecker was casually dropped in favor of the more screwy aspects of his character.
