It's fascinating to see how a comic from 1912 still holds up today. Also I didn't know they had 'colored moving pictures' that early, I always thought Wizard of Oz was the first one in 1939. Turns out 1908 was the year the first color film came out. Neat!

Many early color films were hand-tinted, but there were definitely processed color films early on too. They were just incredibly expensive.
