She's still so amazingly beautiful. Daphne was my #1 for longer than anyone.

R.I.P. Mr. Takamoto.

I really like your creations for Scooby Doo. Scooby Doo was one of my favorites.

That is why I am taking his death very hard.

Gah! Another great cartoonist dies?! That's really sad.

How will Scooby's wise words of wisdom save me for certain disaster when I'm 80? Some of my children's first sentences were "Scooby Doo snack?". He will surely be missed as he rides off in the great Mystery Machine.

Many sorries to de-mothball this topic after seventeen months as while skimming through the boards I happened upon it...but a little clarification:

Iwao Takamoto didn't create Scooby Doo. He designed Scooby and the kids. The character was created through idea by Joe Ruby and Ken Spears, who wrote many of the first season stories. Iwao was responsible for character designs on a lot of shows and designs of non-character things as well, like the cars on Wacky Races. It was Iwao's idea to give Scooby the slanted back and bow legs because he would have resembled Marmaduke (a comic strip Great Dane by Brad Anderson) too much otherwise.
