Looney Tunes: September 2002

Cover

Standing on a wing of a weird motorcycle-like open-cockpit spacecraft, a twisted up K-9 has one foot on Marvin's head and looks back, his attention focused on a bright fire hydrant floating in space. Marvin grumbles "Oooh, I hate it when we pass the dog star!" as they zoom around.


The Bigger Bang

Credits

Synopsis

Marvin, having made a navigational error, has landed on what Yosemite Sam says is his claim. This doesn't stop Marvin from claim the entire planet for Mars. Sam responds to this by blasting Marvin's helmet. Once he gets his spare helmet, the Marian disintegrates Sam, proving that his gun is not the water pistol it might look like.

Sam escalate to using a cannon, and Marvin responds with a larger disintegrating gun. Sam. It gets worse with Sam using multiple cannons and Marvin responding with a huge multiple-beam ray gun. K-9 manages to point out that the only part of the earth left is the small they are all standing on.

Before Marvin and K-9 can go back to Mars, Sam blows it up to even the score. The Martian sends a comet after Sam, but he manages to rope and ride the thing. Yosemite hops off the comet and somehow ropes a black hole which he plans on using on Marvin. Marvin, meanwhile, has snagged a star to use on Sam.

The collision and explosion send the combatants, and K-9, into a weird alternate dimension. Cooperation is suggested, and eventually even agreed to, or so it seems. Instead of a handshake, Marvin and Sam pull their respective pistols which end up aimed barrel to barrel. A moment there there is a huge explosion that leaves a starry outline of Sam and Marvin aiming at each other in the sky of some planet. A man points to the outlines as a single constellation and tells a boy that the pair is named "The Idiots."

Lights Out

Credits

Synopsis

After a long day, Pete Puma starts to relax with a book when the light goes out. Pete walks a great distance to the nearest store where Daffy talks him out of buying light bulbs into buying an expensive and frivolous gadget. Delighted, Pete runs back to try it only to realize he still needs a bulb.

The puma makes his way to the store again and again Daffy makes him forget about lights and instead sells him an expensive gadget he doesn't need. Once home again, Pete rediscovers the light problem. Another trip, another gadget, and another eventual disappoint follow. The puma manages to come up with a plan after all that.

Badly disguised as a little old lady, Pete tries again to simply buy a light bulb from Daffy. The duck manages to sell all manner of things, except for light bulbs, to the puma. An enraged Pete returns and is finally offered a bulb as Daffy has already sold him everything else. Once back in his cave, Pete can finally see again, at least until he tries all the things he bought and the overload plunges him back into the dark.

Bunny Changes Everything

Credits

Synopsis

Huactui, the owner of Machu Pizza, explains to Mars that some things are not available on or with a pizza when Lola, looking a mess and being attacked by imps, walks in and announces that she's quitting. The bunny has had too much of dealing with the unpleasantness of delivery pizzas to gods and monsters. Huactui explains to Lola that she is this generation's Deliverer, the one who can do the job. He also explains that pizza is the thing keeping the gods peaceful and her quitting will result in trouble.

Lola figures it can't be anything worse than what she already has to deal with and leaves anyway. She looks forward to another job, one in retail. Lola finds such a job in a clothing store where she is overjoyed to discover that the only downside to folding pants wrong is wrinkled pants and not some terrible curse.

While Lola takes to her new job, a volcano god erupts in anger elsewhere. He doesn't want the suggested sacrifice, he demands pizza. Lola discovers her new job is rather dull, and dealing with customers still can be a problem. To her astonishment the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the presonifications of War, Pestilience, Death, and Famine, show up wanting pizza.

Huactui is holding interviews for possible replacement for Lola, but they don't seem very likely when an angry god show up demanding his pizza. Luckily for everyone Lola returns a moment later and deftly defuses the situation. The bunny insists on changing how she does the job some. Lola returns to delivering pizzas, but now has a huge imp-swatter to deal with the imps that were attacking her earlier.
