'''Mortimer Mouse''' is an anthropomorphic mouse and [[Mickey Mouse]]'s longtime rival. Portrayed as an arrogant, lecherous, yet charismatic shyster, Mortimer made his animated debut in the [[1936]] short ''[[Mickey's Rival]]'', in which he vied for [[Minnie Mouse]]'s affections against a jealous Mickey. A precursor to the character known as '''Mr. Slicker''' appeared six years prior in the [[Floyd Gottfredson]] comic ''[[Mr. Slicker and the Egg Robbers]]''.

~~With a tall, slim physique and overbearing personality, Mortimer is the polar opposite of the stout and earnest Mickey. Mortimer's whiskers, elongated snout, and prominent front teeth made him out~~ to be ~~more of a rat than a mouse, contrast to his name. Though ''Mickey's Rival'' was his only appearance~~ in ~~the theatrical shorts, Mortimer was reinvigorated in the early 2000s with prominent roles in ''[[Mickey Mouse Works]]'' and~~ ''[[~~House of Mouse~~]]''~~, in which he coined his catchphrase, "Ha-cha-cha!"~~.

He was planned to be in ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit (film)|Who Framed Roger Rabbit]]'' but ultimately deleted.
