There is no central database but spread across all of the internet.

Search around for Creative Commons Cartoon Characters or Comic Character or something similar.

Public domain might be a bit harder because for something to be entered into the public domain the can't be an ownership and has reached a certain age. Creative Commons would be easier to find.

Tv Tropes may be the place to submit and look at characters in Public Domain. Though you may need to put effort on the character's backstory and such.
