Mat from Lat the Kampung Boy is chosen to be the subject of this study because of his presence and effectiveness in his genre is well established. Because of visual appeal is very important in creating a believable, strong and effective iconic character, this study is about finding and determining what and how far visual elements can be exploited to make a true iconic character.

On top of from visual elements, there are two other major influences affecting the development of iconic characters; local and imported elements. These two influences are going to be studied and addressed thoroughly as well.
