We like to think of cartoons as timeless: The Bugs Bunny now is the same Bugs Bunny we had when we were kids. In a sense, that’s part of the beauty of cartoons: They’re youth is everlasting, even though ours might not be. But what happens when cartoon characters show their real age? Artist Andrew Tarusov imagined how our most beloved cartoons would look if they were their actual ages. For example: Tom & Jerry were born in 1940 – what would they look like now? Check out some of Tarusov’s geriatric cartoon portraits below. Roadrunner still looks pretty damn good for his age.
