Bad Bunnies

-


Blue Bunny, from Ice Haven by Daniel Clowes.  I just love rabbits with bad attitudes!


Daniel Clowes is great, although Ghost World did nothing for me.


I sure want to be able to draw adorable, poorly behaved cartoon furries, without any hard work on my part, of course.


It all starts with this guy, and dig those fuckin' threads!  Bugs is planning some payback.


The alert reader will notice the artist's signature.  The greatest team up in animation ever!  Bugs is vibrant, vindictive, of questionable sexuality, vicious, Brooklyn born, morally bankrupt and immortal.
He is one of today's bad bunnies.  (Vanity is a sin, and this is one very vain rabbit).


Br'er Rabbit, trickster and icon of the South.  Bill Peet.


Disney has some of the greatest cartoon artists ever brought together under one roof.  Shame about their shitty movies.


Peter Rabbit, a mildly disobedient bunny who does not get it about Mr. McGregor, the ogre who ate Peter's father.  Beatrix Potter refused to allow Walt to use her creations, especially this one.  Her heirs sold Peter to Sony so they could make one of the truly awful animated movies of all time. 


Biker Bunny, Fritz the Cat.  Speed freak and revolutionary, this movie is so fucked up as to take all of Crumb's considerable charm out of his creations.  Still, he got 9 million dollars for doing nothing and all he does is bitch about it.  I bet Ralph Bakshi is pretty cool to hang out with unlike Robert Crumb.


Nothing like the original.


That's all, Folks!

Two Bad Men, Said Their Murderers

John Choate, 25 August 1818 - 3 August 1869 Crokett Choate, 1842 -3 August 1869 This tells of a grave by the dashing wave A fond friends lip that did quiver Of an eye that's hid by a leaden lid And a voice now stilled forever. John on the left.  They were originally buried where they were killed but October of that year the Refugio Masons moved the bodies to Rockport.  This was all part of the Sutton-Taylor feud, the Suttons were backed by the U. S. Government and of no particular righteousness, they were badge wearing murderers and bullies.  The two story house with the porch running around the second floor in the left background belongs to my sister.  A lovely house and the best behaved neighbors possible! Photos by Steve Davis. The man who killed them.  Sheriff.  Regulator. Murderer. https://books.google.com/books?id=PUvanZiwzdUC&pg=PA64&lpg=PA64&dq=john+and+crockett+choate+death+jack+hel...

The Madonna Of Stalingrad

Image
This superior drawing is known as the "Madonna of Stalingrad".  It was drawn by Lt. Kurt Reuber, a doctor and a protestant pastor.  It measures 3' by 4', and is charcoal on the back of a Soviet map.  It reads, running down the left side, Christmas at the siege, Fortress Stalingrad, Light, Love, Life.  It was flown out by his battalion commander (why was an officer leaving, his place was with his men) on what Wikipedia says is the last flight out but I dispute that.  Could be, though.  Reuber died in a work camp.  He drew another before his death.  The original is on display at the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial church in Berlin. The Prisoner's Madonna.  Reuber. The Germans starved their POW's to death, by policy.  The Russians then starved their German prisoners to death, by policy.  Of the 91,000 6th Army prisoners, 6000 would return home a decade later. 'The Eastern Front was the armies of two mass murderer...
