Roger Rabbit

Roger Rabbit

Roger Rabbit is a fictional cartoon rabbit. The character first appeared in the book Who Censored Roger Rabbit by Gary K. Wolf, which was loosely adapted as the film Who Framed Roger Rabbit; both stories center around a world in which animated films are produced by filming actual living cartoon characters, or "toons", who coexist with the human world in 1940s Los Angeles.

Roger also starred in a comic book series from April 1990 to September 1991 and a spinoff series called Roger Rabbit's Toontown - which featured Roger in the first story and supporting characters like Jessica Rabbit (Roger's Wife), Baby Herman (his co-star in Maroon Cartoons), Benny the Cab (Roger's Taxi Cab friend), and The Weasels (Roger's Enemies) - from June to October 1991. Roger Rabbit isn't as popular as he used to be but he isn't to be forgotten.

The Disney character Bonkers T. Bobcat, and the setting for that show, is generally considered directly inspired by Roger Rabbit.
