Animaniacs #45

Towering bare legs dominate the cover of this 1999 DC Comics entry in the Animaniacs series, dwarfing Yakko, Wakko, and Dot — who stand at street level, hopscotch grid nearby, cheerfully asking "Wanna play hopscotch?" Meanwhile, ominous pink clouds billow over a city skyline in the background, hinting that Pinky and the Brain's schemes are never far away. Cover pencils by Leonardo Batic and inks by Mike DeCarlo give the whole absurd scene a lively, playful energy that perfectly captures the show's signature blend of silliness and surprise.
