Boswell Lotsabucks a recurring character of the Bendy comic strip series from 1931 to 1946. Made by Joey Drew Studios, it is unknown if Boswell appeared anywhere in a cartoon.

General Description

Physical Appearance

He is a stout cartoon cat with a small button nose and a triangular-looking mustache. He wears a fine suit, a monocle, black shoes, and, like most cartoon characters, white gloves.

In his 1930s comics strips, he has black fur with a white face, mustache connecting his nose, and ears that bear an odd similar shape to Bendy's horns.

Around the early 1940s, he went through a big redesign; his fur is now all white, mustache and nose dis-attached, more feline-looking ears, and a short black tail. He has a short-sized cigar in his mouth, and wears a black suit coat (comes with a tie), plaid trousers, and a top hat.

Personality

In the comics of the 1930s era, he is positively calm, laid-back, and deadpan, and pays no careful attention to see what's going on around him.

In his 1940s appearances, however, his personality is drastically different. He appears meaner, snooty, snobbish, demanding, of authority, and has a short amount of patience. His archaic speech patterns suggests that he is bookish. He also is shown to have respect for those who have done right by him, as he is shown to be grateful to Bendy for delivering him to Idahohiowa on time.
