What would drive everyone's favorite cartoon mouse to try and end his own life?  In a comic strip that ran from October 8th through the 24th of 1930, Mickey Mouse was left with a dilemma.  Minnie had fallen for another man, er... rodent and , apparently at the end of his rope and thinking that there is no hope left for him in the world decides to commit suicide.  This fifteen strip chunk of a much larger story is a testament to how different the world was back in the 1930's.  After all, if such a thing today was attempted with Mickey Mouse or any other popular cartoon character, it would be decried by every organization on Earth!
