Big Bad Pete (1930s BnW) - Disney

The ORIGINAL meanie, and bad Pete. Monochrome cat.

General Summary: This, everyone, is the OG Disney Big Bad Pete, also known as Peg-Leg Pete or Black Pete. Permanently monochrome, yet his meanie, rude nature as an antagonist/villain character prevails. Despite being monochrome, Pete has a strong and distinctive personality and is a well-known character in the world of Disney. He was often shown as a rival or antagonist to Mickey Mouse, and would often try to cause trouble or get in the way of Mickey and his friends. Pete has a peg leg on his right leg.

By Pete's own admission, which also influences our oldschool black and white Pete, he was "born to cheat and lie". His relationship with his mother may be to blame for his villainy. At some point in his life, Pete lost his right leg by undisclosed events, replacing it with a wooden peg. He would go on to adopt the moniker “Peg-Leg Pete”.

Character Background: Despite his most famous profession being a steamboat captain, he has also donned many professions, such as construction site foreman—in both cases, serving as the employer of Mickey Mouse. Most often, he is depicted as a local thug or brute. Even when donning a lawful profession, his practices are typically thuggish.

Personality Summary: Pete's been recorded to have picked up romantic feelings for Minnie Mouse from as early as 1928's The Gallopin' Gaucho, and has tried to get her attentions on numerous occasions. They were never reciprocated, causing him to repeatedly kidnap Minnie in attempts to force a courtship. Nonetheless, he's been foiled by the gallant Mickey.

Just like the Modern Pete, he's often relying on brute strength. But this also makes him a bumbling and incompetent person, though he has sometimes shown to be very cunning, smart, deceitful, manipulative, and intelligent. The difference is that this one is less restrained, due to the nature of less censorship in cartoons. He's been seen smoking and has more negative traits associated with cats, such as self-importance, acting dumb to fool enemies into underestimating him.

Physical Description: Pete is an obese black cat with a cream shaven muzzle, and after half of the 30's, he began wearing a pair of white opera gloves. Other than that, his attire changes depending on the occasion. Due to his beginning as a black and white Toon, he's black and white. Including his clothing. This Pete, specifically doesn't wear the opera gloves the other Petes are known for.
