[[TheUnintelligible Unintelligible characters]] in comic strips.
----
* "Mumbles" in the syndicated cartoon strip ''ComicStrip/DickTracy'', as well as the movie based on it, where he was played by an uncredited Creator/DustinHoffman. In the movie, his speech appears to be modeled on that of Creator/MarlonBrando. In the post-Chester Gould period of the strip, writer Max Alan Collins created Merky, a man whose speech is ''totally'' incomprehensible, being made up of original symbols.
* In a ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}'' Sunday strip, [[DogsAreDumb Odie]] stands on a fence and tells a joke to an invisble back alley audience. However, since Odie can't talk (not even "thought speech", like Garfield), he barks the joke. Not only does the audience understand him, but [[TakeOurWordForIt they think the joke is really funny]].
* During his first appearances in ''ComicStrip/GetFuzzy'', Mac Manc [=McManx=] spoke almost completely unintelligibly. Not by virtue of having muffled speech or talking like a real animal, mind you, but simply because of the unholy way he mixed and matched however many British slang dialects one could think of into each of his sentences. This was later toned down to make what he said somewhat more comprehensible.
-->'''Mac:''' ''[from his first appearance]'' Been havin' a butcher's for your flat all day, mate, thought I'd cocked summat up! I'm well knackered, I can tell you! I could do with a bevvy and a kip! [...] Plus. Some bloke diddled me brolly in the queue for the khazi back in Blightey.
* The Imp in ''ComicStrip/LittleNemo in Slumberland''. In the words of the Princess: "He can't understand English or any other language!" (He can [[SpeaksFluentAnimal talk to lions]], however). In his own words: "Gimmel iggle ip soggle opp sog!"
* Woodstock and the other birds from ''ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}}''; their dialogue is represented with hash marks. Snoopy, however, understands them.
* Snuffles, the cat from ''ComicStrip/PearlsBeforeSwine'', only talks in meows. Somehow, everyone else can understand him.
