=== Fleischer Studios today ===
In 1985, DC Comics named Fleischer Studios as one of the honorees in the company's 50th anniversary publication ''[[Fifty Who Made DC Great]]'' for its work on the [[Superman (1940s animated film series)|Superman cartoons]].<ref>{{Cite comic | writer = Marx, Barry | cowriters = [[Joey Cavalieri|Cavalieri, Joey]] and Hill, Thomas | artist = Petruccio, Steven | editor = Marx, Barry | story = Fleischer Studios Superman Animated| title = Fifty Who Made DC Great | date = 1985 | publisher = DC Comics | page = 20 | panel = | id =}}</ref>

Today, a new iteration of Fleischer Studios effectively holds the rights to Betty Boop and associated characters such as Koko the Clown, Bimbo and [[Grampy]], though courts have never supported their ownership claims. It is headed by Max's grandson Mark Fleischer, who oversees merchandising activities.<ref>{{cite web|title=Fleischer Studios – History|url=https://www.fleischerstudios.com/history.php|publisher=Fleischer Studios|access-date=April 27, 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120426055551/http://www.fleischerstudios.com/history.php|archive-date=April 26, 2012}}</ref> Fleischer Studios utilizes King Features Syndicate to license Fleischer characters for various merchandise.<ref>{{cite web|title=Fleischer Studios – Contact|url=https://www.fleischerstudios.com/contact.php|publisher=Fleischer Studios|access-date=April 27, 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120316180059/http://fleischerstudios.com/contact.php|archive-date=March 16, 2012}}</ref>

In 2021, after decades of being shown in altered and worn prints, the Fabulous Fleischer Cartoons Restored company was started by Max Fleischer's granddaughter, Jane Fleischer Reid, to focus on the restoration and screening of the Fleischer Studios library. The restoration efforts are a collaboration between film archives around the world including [[Paramount Pictures]] which owns the original camera negatives. Beginning with ''Somewhere in Dreamland''; the restored cartoon had its premiere on the [[MeTV]] network in December of the same year.<ref>{{cite web|title=Bringing Fleischer's "Somewhere In Dreamland" to MeTV|url= https://cartoonresearch.com/index.php/bringing-fleischers-somewhere-in-dreamland-to-metv/|publisher=Cartoon Research|access-date=December 9, 2021}}</ref> In March 2023, a week long screening event took place at the [[Museum of Modern Art]] which showcased around 60 brand new Fleischer restorations.
