Tasmanian Devil

The Tasmanian Devil — better known as Taz — is the wild, perpetually ravenous marsupial from Looney Tunes, whose unstoppable spinning and ferocious appetite made him a comedic force opposite Bugs Bunny and the broader Warner Bros. cartoon cast.

Spinning onto the comics page in 1969's Golden Comics Digest #6, Tasmanian Devil is a Silver Age creation who has kept wonderfully wild company across more than five decades of DC publishing — sharing panels with the likes of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Wile E. Coyote, and the rest of the beloved Looney Tunes cast. With appearances stretching from 1969 all the way to 2025, this whirling force of comic chaos has proven surprisingly enduring, popping up in Looney Tunes, Golden Comics Digest, and even the modern Multiversus: Collision Detected. Created by Michael Maltese and Phil De Lara, Tasmanian Devil is a genuine piece of animated comics history — and for collectors who love their funny-animal comics with a little extra ferocity, these appearances are a treat worth tracking down.
