someguy3, Q: When does the copyright on the next version of Mickey Mouse expire? (Steamboat Willie has no gloves and is black and white, I expect that will be how Disney protects the more modern versions of Mickey.)
AllNewTypeFace, 
There is apparently a 1928 poster of Mickey Mouse already with the white gloves, which, if verified, would place them in the public domain.
rockSlayer, (edited ) The Skeleton Dance will be entering public domain next year. Yea, that one. Other ones of note:
- The original depiction of Popeye
- farewell to Arms

Really? I knew it was old but didn’t realize it was THAT old. The more you know…
Peppycito, Popeye was a spinoff of a comic from the 20’s.
Stamau123, It wasn’t just that, Popeye was introduced in the tenth year of Thimble Theatre and was so popular the entire strip was renamed Popeye.

Which is still going today!
