This was just a silly idea I couldn’t resist. So I whipped up the image–combining some Last Kiss art with some clipart for the bunny as well as the background.
No, IHOP didn’t pay me (not even in pancakes) to do this. And Bunnies for Happiness isn’t a real thing. (But it should be.)
More Easter silliness this Sunday with a new Last Kiss!

Here’s the first of four Easter comics that I’ll be posting this week. This one written with my frequent partner in hilarity Mike Pascale.
Original Vintage Art & Text
Art by Ken Rice from the story “Too Smart for Love” in Ten-Story Love #204, Sept. 1955. Ace Magazines. Curious to see more? Click the link to read the entire vintage comic book.
↓ TranscriptCAPTION: The Easter Bunny is tired of sounding like an uncouth cottontail...and a boorish backwoods dumb bunny!
(Cruel people have even called him “hare-brained!”)
So he’s taking elocution lessons from that paragon of precise pronunciation: Eliza Do Little!
SCENE: The Easter Bunny is talking to a woman sitting at a desk.
EASTER BUNNY (singing): Randy rabbits rapidly race to rescue...rascal raccoons in Rio...from ransacking roadrunner robbers!
WOMAN: Good! Now sing it three times...backwards...while hopping...with your basket full of eggs!
1955 Art (of woman): Ken Rice Re-ink & Color: Diego Jourdan Pereira
Eggcelent Writers: Mike Pascale & John Lustig
