The format is approximately 5.75 inches by 8.5 inches. [10], 255, [5] pages. Colorfully illustrated dust jacket. It's a hoot. Wolf obviously gets as big a kick out of the convoluted plotting and the exaggerated private-eye lingo as he does the interactions between humans and Toons. The ingredients make a rich confection for anyone addicted to pop culture--Wichita Eagle. A marvelous adventure in Toontown, a hare-sute tour de farce. In this latest cotton-tale, Roger is back with the same madcap characterizations we loved in the film--Ottawa Citizen. Wolf has managed to take a potential one-joke premise and milk it for all it's worth--Wilmington Sunday News Journal. Those thespian Toons are back. Readers are going to love it. And the film is going to be great--Washington Times. Murder and mayhem in Hollywood's shady underworld. A humorous and intelligent mystery--Staten Island Sunday Advance. Gary K. Wolf (born January 24, 1941) is an American author. He is best known as the author of Who Censored Roger Rabbit? (1981), which was adapted into the hit feature-length film Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988). Wolf and childhood friend John J. Myers, former Catholic Archbishop of Newark, New Jersey, co-wrote a novel named Space Vulture, released by TOR books during 2008. Wolf and co-author Jehane Baptiste have a story named "The UnHardy Boys in Outer Space" in the annual anthology of humorous science fiction, Amityville House of Pancakes Vol. 3. Gary K. Wolf is best known for creating the comedic mystery series centered on Roger Rabbit, a cartoon character in an alternate universe where "toons" and humans coexist. The series began with Who Censored Roger Rabbit? (1981), which inspired the hit film Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988). In the original novel, Eddie Valiant, a hard-boiled detective, is hired by Roger Rabbit, a comic strip star, to investigate broken promises from his employers. The case spirals into a murder mystery exposing deception, a magical genie, and Roger’s true nature. The series continued with Who P-P-P-Plugged Roger Rabbit? (1991), retconning the original as Jessica Rabbit’s dream and aligning with the Disney film. Eddie investigates new murders and Roger's scheming cousin, Dodger Rabbit, in a noir-inspired tale blending toons and human intrigue. In The Road to Toontown (2012), Wolf collected short stories, including a new Jessica Rabbit narrative that delves deeper into the Roger Rabbit universe. The series returned with Who Wacked Roger Rabbit? (2013), where Eddie Valiant protects actor Gary Cooper during a Toontown film shoot, uncovering threats and sinister underworld schemes. In Jessica Rabbit: XERIOUS Business (2022), Jessica Rabbit is reimagined as Jessica Krupnick, a human turned secret agent for the XERIOUS Organization, showcasing her intelligence and evolution beyond her femme fatale origins. In 2001, Wolf sued The Walt Disney Company for unpaid royalties. After appeals and hearings, Wolf prevailed in 2005. Wolf proposed a prequel to Who Framed Roger Rabbit in 2013, reimagining Disney’s The Stooge with Roger and Mickey Mouse, exploring Roger’s backstory and his relationship with Jessica Rabbit. Following Roger Rabbit’s cameo in Disney+’s 2022 Chip ’n Dale: Rescue Rangers film, reports emerged that character rights were reverting to Wolf. The novel features the original main characters Roger Rabbit, Eddie Valiant, Jessica Rabbit, and Baby Herman. Their personalities conform to those established in the Who Framed Roger Rabbit film, such as Jessica's devotion to Roger and Roger's cartoony quirks such as his speech impediment. The story starts out with Eddie Valiant at the front door of Roger Rabbit's house. Almost immediately after he is let inside the house, Roger tells him about the upcoming Gone with the Wind toon adaptation and how he has a chance to play the lead as Rhett Butler. However, the Telltale News, a newspaper that tends to toons, prints an article about Jessica Rabbit and her relationship with Clark.…
