Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies Comics #11

Straight from the golden age of animation-to-comics adaptations, this September 1942 Dell issue presents Porky Pig pedaling a wonderfully ramshackle homemade tricycle while Bugs Bunny — goggles perched on his head and a carrot in hand — hitches a mischievous ride on the back. The whole scene radiates the cheerful chaos that made these characters a perfect fit for the funny pages, rendered with the warm, hand-crafted charm that defined Leon Schlesinger's studio work of the era. At a dime a copy, this was pure Saturday-afternoon joy in comic form.
