Looney Tunes #37
In "The Carrot Crisis," Bugs Bunny finds himself in a sticky situation when Elmer Fudd’s prized carrot patch is raided—right before his dinner for the "Carrot Gourmet Society." Desperate to impress, Elmer dons a starving rabbit costume and spins a tearful tale, only for Bugs to spot the ruse through Elmer’s unmistakable speech pattern. With rabbit season now open, Elmer’s race to get the carrots home in time becomes a frantic, slapstick scramble. A classic Looney Tunes tangle of wit and wits, drawn with punchy energy by Lee Holley and colored by the Western Publishing Production Shop, with a delightfully chaotic cover by Pete Alvarado and Bill Wright.

Bugs has picked Elmer’s carrot patch clean on the night of Fudd’s dinner for the "Carrot Gourmet Society". Desperate to serve his guests his own special “gourmet carrots”, rather than the store-bought variety, he costumes himself as a starving rabbit to get his carrots back with a sob-story. Bugs immediately sees through the ruse, thanks to Elmer’s trademark speech impediment, but gives him the carrots anyway. Oh, and just costumed-Elmer's luck, rabbit season has just opened. Can he make it home with the goods in time for dinner?
