The English doctrine, which was at one time adopted in the United States, asserted that allegiance was indelible: " Nemo potest exuere patriam ".

In the United States the response was from the famous strip cartoon artist Winsor McCay, who drew much more realistic animated figures going through smoother, more naturalistic motion in a series of films starting with the film Little Nemo, made for Vitagraph in 1911.

The strip was first called Little Nemo in Slumberland and then In the Land of Wonderful Dreams when it changed papers.

The last panel in each strip was always one of Nemo waking up, usually in or near his bed, and often being scolded ( or comforted ) by one of the grownups of the household after crying out in his sleep and waking them.

Later on, when Nemo finally did reach Slumberland, he was constantly being woken up by Flip, a character who originally wore a hat that had ' Wake Up ' written on it.

Instead of Flip or the Princess, Nemo meets Zorro, Alice and Jules Verne's Nautilus ( which was led by Captain Nemo ).
