Buni-Double page 8 of 8 by guest cartoonist Kyle Miller
Buni-Double was originally printed in the SnowBuni Blizzard fanzine anthology back in the late 1980s – early 90s, and later reprinted in the Best of SnowBuni Blizzardcompilation in the mid-1990s. It introduces “Robot SnowBuni” (or, “Mecha SnowBuni” as she is sometimes called), a robotic duplicate sent to destroy the space bunnygirl. The art, story, and new character design were all performed by game designer Kyle Miller.
The “Triple-S” is the name of the governmental body that employs SnowBuni when she is on assignment. Both are components of Blue Spring, the clan for which SnowBuni is a member.
Robotic assassins are quite common in comic books and comic-related movies; they are just another occupational hazard for your typical media adventurer.

I’m reprinting some of the classic from the SnowBuni print comics and early digital posts. I’ve been fielding some questions regarding the history of SnowBuni, and I thought these would provide a bit of entertainment and enlightenment into the Sylvalagi universe.

Hare D’Ouevre page 1
Like many enthusiasts with fond memories of the original Bugs Bunny and crew from Warner Brothers Studios, I was horrified to hear of the planned “reinterpretation” of the classic characters as the Loonatics back in 2004.
As described, the Loonatics concept seemed unworkable… for one thing, the characters in the original theater shorts had been antagonists, representing absurd caricatures of real situations (such as Elmer’s ill-fated hunting trip in Rabbit Seasoning in which Daffy and Bugs try to convince the hunter to shoot the other). In contrast, the characters in the Loonatics are more-or-less interchangeable teammates, without any interesting conflicts or acknowledgment of their differences.
This is the first strip (work-in-progress) of a Loonatics parody (which I actually wrote BEFORE the Loonatics cartoon series was released), in which I highlighted the faults that I anticipated for the series (using my Sylvalagi characters SnowBuni and HoniBuni as members of the Loonatics “team”).
Even though it appears that the animated Loonatics series has been cancelled, I’m thinking to publish my little parody anyway. Call it a post-cancellation critique.
I think it’s worth posting. Or not. You let me know!
The artwork is still a bit sketchy… I’ve inked two panels of this page multiple times, trying to find the perfect procedure. Still working on it.
Also, note that I’ve modified SnowBuni and Taz, with a style containing elements from both the Loonatics show as well as my own Pseudo Comics.
Also… gaps in the previous story arc (Lost in the Haunted House) will be filled by chapters as they become available from their contributing artists.
