"Duck Dodgers in the 24 1/2 Century" is just one of Jones' many gifts to animation. For more Acme creations, see any of the "Road Runner and Coyote" cartoons, where Wile E. Coyote buys a continual stream of gadgets from Acme in his attempts to catch the Road Runner. None, alas, work as desired...
The Road Runner cartoons showcase Jones' work as a purely visual humorist. He believed that good cartoons could be funny without dialog to explain what was going on, and proved his case handily.
