Flip the Fly is the proverbial underdog, an innocent victim of circumstance and Flipitytoons starring character. This quick thinking fly outsmart his predators from becoming a part of the menu. His tenacious ability to face his adversaries with everything he's got makes it easy for us to root for him to come out on top.
Flip was first conceived as a blue collar worker ant from the lowest rank, for the 1994 comic strip series "Insects". This character took on a new role of a fly with similar traits during a phase of re-designs. In 1995, Flip began to transition into a more stylistic animated look that were featured in the comic strip series "Flip the Fly".
Flips' character development was so sucessful, it's effects impacted the entire Insects series that resulted in the adoption of the new title: Flipitytoons.
