Comic Animals - Random Trivia Questions

Everyone loves talking animals (ask "Mister Ed"), although sometimes it's better not to actually hear them. I'm sorry, but Garfield the cat just shouldn't sound like Carlton the Doorman (*Who provided both of their voices?). So this week's questions are about those silent stars of black and white (well, color on Sundays). All of these comic strips are currently in syndication or are very well known. (Original artists are listed in parentheses.)
