Mighty Mouse was just a Deus EX Machina...


in a large number of his cartoons.

For the first two thirds of the cartoon we would see the villain persecute the Mice/Sheep/Fairy Tale characters who would hold their own for most of the cartoon and only get overwhelmed towards the end and Mighty Mouse would come in for the last minute or two like the cavalry to mop up.
