Bugs Bunny and Friends #[nn]
In "The Wild Hare," Bugs Bunny teams up with the eccentric inventor Hedgerow Huppy to grow a Christmas tree-sized carrot, only to run out of decorations. When Huppy’s experimental bubble invention goes awry—thanks to a mix-up with a helium tank—the decorated carrot takes flight, sending Bugs and Elmer Fudd on a wild chase through the sky in a borrowed helicopter. Written by Don R. Christensen and illustrated by Tony Strobl, with inks by Steve Steere, the issue features a delightfully chaotic adventure, all capped off by a vibrant cover by Walter Carzon and Rubén Torreiro.

With the help of Hedgerow Huppy, the inventor, Bugs grows a Christmas tree-sized carrot. He runs out of decorations and finds that Huppy has a not-quite-perfected invention that makes sticky, long-lasting bubbles. Huppy mistakenly gives Bugs a tank of helium instead of compressed air and the helium-filled balloons on the carrot tree take it airborne. Elmer and Bugs have to track it down with a helicopter.
