Here's a Warner Bros cartoon you probably never saw. ;) This is the only surviving cell from the cartoon. Censors in the 1950's were a bit wary of showing so much muscle on a character. And the animators complained it was too complex to draw... so the studio pulled it at the last moment.
And if you believe that... :P

Check out this old Looney Tunes cartoon:

Maybe you already know this, but there actually is an old Looney Tunes cartoon in which a super-strong mouse kicks Sylvester's butt. It's called "Cats A-Weigh!", released in 1952 or 1953. It features Sylvester and Sylvester Jr., who take jobs as shipboard cats. Most of the cartoon focuses on Sylvester's inability to catch the baby kangaroo Hippety Hopper, whom Sylvester once again mistakes for a giant mouse. In the final scene, though, Sylvester corners a real mouse, but the mouse turns the tables by consuming a bottle of "super muscle-building vitamins." You can see the whole cartoon here:

The scene in question begins at time 05:53.
Ironically, the scene with the super-mouse is usually censored out when the cartoon is shown on TV.
BTW, I really like your Muscle Mouse drawings, but why do you draw him in the exact same pose every time? A little variety wouldn't hurt. ;)

Thanks for the comment and the link! *hugs* I LOVE "Cats A-Weigh" and can't ever remember seeing that ending. Stoopid censors!! I guess the ending was cut because of the drug reference.. which nobody imagined a problem with wayyyy back in the early 1950's.
Hmm... why is the mouse in the same pose...? Because.... (don't tell ANYBODY) It's the same drawing done in many many many many many many different styles. (Yes I'm incredibly lazy) :P I have this bad habit of re-doing the same image over and over... I look at it and think: What if...?
Yup I need to draw something new.
