Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies Comics #83

A delightful slice of 1948 Looney Tunes mayhem from Dell, this issue features Bugs Bunny front and center — literally getting a baseball bat pulled right out of his hands by an eager Porky Pig leaning out a window, with a fresh crack in the glass behind him hinting that things have already gone sideways. The warm, sunny colors and expressive cartoon energy capture everything that made these Dell comics a treat, and the ball itself is even signed "Bugs Bunny" — a nice little gag that rewards a close look. Inside, the fun continues with "Introducing Garry Gopher," illustrated by Al Hubbard, making this a charming snapshot of the Looney Tunes gang at their mid-century best.
