Question: What nationality is Robert Lips who is best known for his work on a cartoon character, a blue parrot with a yellow beak, a beret and checkered trousers?
Context: Speedy Gonzales is an animated cartoon character in the Warner Brothers "Looney Tunes" and "Merrie Melodies" series of cartoons.  He is portrayed as "The Fastest Mouse in all Mexico" with his major traits being the ability to run extremely fast and speaking with an exaggerated Mexican accent and also speaking Spanish.  He usually wears a yellow "sombrero", white shirt and trousers (which was a common traditional outfit worn by men and boys of rural Mexican villages), and a red kerchief, similar to that of some traditional Mexican attires.  To date, there have been 46 cartoons made either starring or featuring this character. Robert Lips; 21 August 1912 – 28 February 1975), was a Swiss cartoonist.  His best known as the creator of the cartoon character "Globi" for Jay Allen Sanford (born February 18, 1960, Middleborough, Massachusetts) is an American author and cartoonist best known for his work with Revolutionary Comics, Carnal Comics, and Pacific Comics.  He began writing the comic book "Rock ‘N’ Roll Comics" (created by Todd Loren) in 1989 as of the title's second issue, and still oversees the rock comic reprints published by Bluewater Productions and others.  The publishing company he co-founded, Carnal Comics, is best known for launching the movie and cartoon character Demi the Demoness.  Sanford ran Carnal Comics from 1994 through 2000, before handing over the publishing reins to SS Crompton. Obelix (Obélix in French) is a cartoon character and protagonist in the French comic book series Asterix.  He works as a menhir sculptor and deliveryman, and is Asterix's best friend.  Obelix is noted for his fatness, the menhirs he carries around on his back and his superhuman strength.  He fell into a cauldron of the Gauls' magic potion when he was a baby, causing him to be the only Gaul in Asterix's village who is in a permanent state of superhuman strength.  Because of this already enormous strength, Obelix is not allowed to drink the magic potion ever again, a ban he regards as being tremendously unfair.  Other characteristics are his simplemindedness, his love and care for his dog Dogmatix, his anger when someone refers to him as being ""fat"", his enthusiasm for hunting and eating wild boars and beating up Romans.  His catchphrase is: ""Ils sont fous ces romains"", which translates into "These Romans are crazy!" , although he considers nearly every other nationality to be just as strange. Rupert Bear: Follow the Magic... is a children's television series based on the Mary Tourtel character, Rupert Bear.  Aimed at pre-school children, the show is part stop motion, part computer-generated imagery.  Rupert Bear still wears his trademark bright yellow plaid trousers and matching scarf, with a red jumper.  Rupert has brown fur once again, just as he was originally drawn in 1920: when he appeared as a cartoon character in the Daily Express, they economised on ink by printing him white. The blue-collared parrot ("Geoffroyus simplex") also known as simple parrot, lilac-collared song parrot, or lilac-collared Geoffroy's parrot, is a parrot found in the higher elevations of New Guinea.  It is found from 500 to 2300 m, mainly between 800 and 1900 m (though food shortages will send them lower).  It is 23–25 cm, mainly green with a black beak, yellow wing bend, blue underwing coverts, and a pale yellow iris.  Adult males have a blue collar across upper breast to lower neck above the mantle, adult females have some blue on the rear crown.  Juveniles have no blue and a paler bill.  There are two subspecies: Globi is a Swiss cartoon character often referred to as Switzerland's Mickey Mouse.  He is pictured as an anthropomorphic blue parrot with a yellow beak wearing a black beret and a pair of red and black checkered trousers.  He was created by the Swiss cartoonist Robert Lips, as an advertising character for the Swiss department store Globus in 1932 for the company's 25th anniversary.  He was originally planned to be called “Kimbukku”, but later renamed Globi after the local Basel German "(Baseldytsch)" dialect word for the department store that created him. Bink is a cartoon character and the unofficial mascot of Eric Miller Animation Studios.  He was created by Eric M. Miller and Charlie Petrek at the Eric Miller Animation Studios in 2015, and designed by Valerio Fabbretti.  Bink is an unknown species from Earth who is covered in yellow fur with blue spots, and cloth wraps around his forearms, and lower legs.  He also wears an amulet around his neck which looks like a compass of some sort. Tiger Moon was a disco/freestyle Miami-based group that is known for their 1987 song "Something Tells Me".  The song has appeared in several Gay, Miami and freestyle compilations.  The track was sampled by Prince in his song "Thieves In the Temple" and by other artists.  "Something Tells Me" was used in the 1988 movie "Frantic" during a scene in which Harrison Ford's character, Richard Walker, enters The Blue Parrot looking for Dédé Martin. Mr. Horsepower is the cartoon mascot and logo of Clay Smith Cams, an auto shop established in 1931.  He is a sneering, cigar-smoking bird with red feathers and a yellow beak.  The image is a caricature of legendary hot rod guru Clay Smith (1921-1954), well known for his red hair.  Mr. Horsepower is rarely without a cigar, but when he is, he has a "cigar replacement" - such as a candy cane for the holidays.
