Snagglepuss Gets Serious
In Exit Stage Left!: The Snagglepuss Chronicles, Snagglepuss is a gay playwright at the height of the arms race in the 1950s. After losing his friend Huckleberry Hound to suicide and after his gay lover leaves for war, Snagglepuss outs himself and is blacklisted from the entertainment industry. He later joins Quick Draw McGraw's animation industry under the alias "Snaggletooth"

Behind the scenes

 * According to a 1982 calendar, he was born on September 30th.
 * In his first few appearances on The Quick Draw McGraw Show, he is depicted as more of an antagonist.
 * It is rumored by many that Snagglepuss could presumably be gay based on his flowery accent, his interest in theatrical and his lavender fur color. ** Co-creator Joseph Barbera was in denial of the rumor, insisting that the character was modeled after Bert Lahr and was indeed not gay because "he beat his wife." When in the Johnny Bravo writers room, he playfully threatened Steve Marmel's life when he insinuated Snagglepuss to be gay, warning him "A Sicilian never forgets."
