This article is filed under Characters.Mr. Ratburn is a teacher at Lakewood Elementary School in Arthur, and one of the few Arthur characters where the animal of origin is painstakingly obvious. Though strict in the classroom, he also has a lighthearted side that includes a fondness for cake. Ratburn is also a trailbrazer as one of the few openly gay characters in a preschool program.
On YouChew, Ratburn became popular in image edits thanks to his smug expression.
On YouChew[edit]
The genesis of Ratburn's YouChew popularity dates to late 2010 within the Arthur Comic Maker thread. The thread was one of several which saw the forumgoers take an official Flash-based comic creator for a children's cartoon and go wild with it. People quickly caught on to how amusingly smug the usable Ratburn picture looked, with various comics being made where the final panel was just a closeup of Ratburn's face. This prompted cantflyman to establish a maxim Nozdordomu would call "Cantflyman's Law":
"I swear to God, Mr Ratburn's zoomed in face can be the punchline to anything and still be laugh out loud hilarious."
Surely enough, Ratburn remained a focal point of many comics, eventually prompting Rokto to create a standalone thread for Ratburn image edits, which itself proved popular. It further enshrined Ratburn as a YouChew icon, and as the community's second smug sensation in a few months (following Smug Porky). Both threads were later moved to the Hall of Fame. Ratburn was later featured on YouChew Trading Card #36.
