| Purpose of use |
The purpose of this image is to show the reader an image of the episode and, in particular, to illustrate the Mr. Hankey character himself; although described within the article, the image illustrates the specifics of the character far better than words can. A the understanding of the character is a crucial element of the article; he is the title character of the episode, became one of the most popular minor South Park characters as a result of said episode, and the character along with the episode helped bring the show to a new level of popularity and relevance. The close-up of the character also accentuates the visual style of Mr. Hankey, who was deliberately designed to resemble Mickey Mouse from the 1928 cartoon Steamboat Willie, particularly in the eyes, so as to convey the wholesomeness of cartoon characters from that era. The image also demonstrates the crudeness and daringness of the humor of this episode, which is outlined in the Production section of the article. In particular, it illustrates feces trail left behind by Mr. Hankey when he moves, which the animators created by scanning images of spread out chocolate and fudge. This is explained in the "Episode production" section, but a visual example is necessary to demonstrate it most effectively. |
