Looney Tunes #169
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Bugs Bunny, would-be reporter," Porky Pig’s simple flower shop order takes a wild turn when a jewel thief hides a stolen necklace in a potted plant meant for Petunia’s birthday. When Petunia thinks the gift is a clever imitation, Porky must scramble to return the real treasure to the police—without revealing how it ended up in his hands. A clever, fast-paced caper from the golden age of Looney Tunes, illustrated with crisp energy by Phil De Lara, and featuring a vibrant cover by Ralph Heimdahl.
In this classic 1955 Looney Tunes tale, Bugs Bunny tries his hand at journalism by applying for a job at Elner's newspaper—only to be tested with a high-pressure street-corner sales challenge. With a misprinted headline claiming the Mayor is leading an amateur crooks' club, Bugs must hustle to sell the late editions before time runs out.
Porky tries to surprise Petunia with a thoughtful birthday gift—a potted plant—only to have a jewel thief hide a stolen necklace inside it before vanishing. When Petunia finds the treasure and believes it’s a clever imitation from Porky, he’s caught between keeping her happy and doing the right thing. The real challenge begins when he realizes the plant holds more than just dirt.
Daffy Duck, fed up with routine, takes matters into his own webbed feet by banding himself and calling in fake migration reports from far-flung locales. With a flair for the dramatic and a knack for mischief, he turns the Department of the Interior’s tracking effort into a one-duck circus.
In "Pose, Please," Sniffles stumbles upon Mary Jane on a nature walk, her cameras poised to capture wildlife—only to find the animals too skittish to pose. With a clever idea, he suggests she shrink down to their size, hoping it’ll help her get the perfect candid shot.
In "Whistling for Granny," Sylvester’s latest scheme to snag Granny’s goldfish hits a snag when she enlists Tweety to keep watch—setting up a classic cat-and-bird game of wits, with a fishbowl at stake and a whistle the only signal that could change everything.
In this delightfully silly 1955 gem from Looney Tunes #169, Bugs Bunny, ever the courteous chauffeur, offers Elmer Fudd a ride home after his new lamp and suit purchase—only to find himself improvising a raincoat when the skies open up. With a quick twist of wit and a lampshade from the backseat, Bugs turns the situation into a laugh-out-loud moment of absurd protection.
