Welcome to Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies Comics. On this blog, we'll be taking a look at the overlooked side career of the Warner Bros. cartoon characters. Though beloved and celebrated on theater and TV screens for generations of fans, Bugs Bunny and his cartoon cohorts have also had an equally lengthy career in print.

"Looney Tunes" (DC) # 82, November 2001: "Dinner and a Show"
In this story from 2001 (Story by Frank Strom, art by Walter Carzon and Horacio Ottolini), Witch Hazel attempts to lure Hansel and Gretel into her oven with a mind control potion, but needs a mouse's tail as the final ingredient. Enter Speedy Gonzales, in search of some "Pepso El Bismol" to cure his indigestion.
Now this is how "A-Haunting We Will Go" ought to have been!
Also, give Walter credit: when it comes to fun comic book pencils, he makes a good "stand-in" for Dave Alvarez. "Sleeping Daffy" is another example of true Looney artwork :)
I have this one!
