In "Kissin' Cousins," Bugs Bunny navigates a whirlwind of mistaken intentions when he thinks Elmer Fudd is getting married—only to worry the bride will ditch him for his money after the vows. To make amends, Bugs enters a Monty Hall–esque game show to find the perfect wedding gift, turning down a yacht and a car for a surprisingly thoughtful waffle iron. Written by Mark Evanier and illustrated by Tom McKimson, with vibrant colors by the Western Publishing Production Shop and crisp lettering by Larry Mayer, this 1975 classic features a delightfully absurd twist on romance and generosity, all capped by Ralph Heimdahl’s sharp, playful cover art.
