I just read this and wondering if anybody else knew about this. Cartoonist Bill Peet got into an argument with Walt, and lost. For revenge, he drew the evil Captain Hook in Walt's likeness.

Can't say that I see the resemblance. Either Peet was a lousy caricature artist, or perhaps the author was misinformed. :lol:

I don't think so. Walt Disney doesn't really look like Captain Hook at all.
Besides, Captain Hook has a very thin mustache, and Walt Disney of course had a thicker one.
