Uncle Funny Bunny And Chumpy
All right, you have just seen five examples of some of the worst art and writing ever put into a comic strip. This stuff is so bad many sites are claiming it's the worst strip ever written. (not true, that honor belongs to Doonesbury). The only thing missing from Uncle Funny Bunny is the 'flip take', as seen in the example of the amazingly bad Jerry On The Job:
Jerry was the creation of Walter Hoban.
Funny Bunny doesn't use flip takes, it uses The Rabbit's Stupid Expression.
Shocking the monkey.
Chumpy
attends a school with humans. This is as obscure a comic as they come,
I can find nothing on it or on Jack Pierce. Uncle Funny Bunny ran in
Weekly Reader during the fifties as did -
Abomination. Loki either has an invisible chair or a horrifying spine condition.
I see Weekly Reader was still pushing the concept of desegregation between humans and talking animals as late as '73.
I
found this postcard from the fifties while trying to research Uncle
Funny Bunny. It has nothing to do with that strip, but the art and
approach puts it into the same category. This slightly off color 'joke'
happens to be dead on as far as our government goes.
This
post was suggested to me by skoshi8 on DeviantArt, all complaints
should be directed to him. He discovered this comic and one just couldn't find something more forgotten.
This has been a Retro Rabbit presentation.
