Review: Itty Bitty Bunnies in Rainbow Candyland: Bong Genie #1

Bong genieAction Lab Entertainment has done it again!  They’ve given us another funny, crazy and creative comic, written and designed by Dean Rankine. Itty Bitty Bunnies in Rainbow Candyland: Bong Genie is about two bunnies who have their wishes granted from a magic genie residing in a bong.  Their first wish doesn’t go to plan but they end up getting what they want in the end which is a huge mountain of drugs. What could possibly go wrong?

In terms of writing, there isn’t a lot to say as we’ve got the whimsical artwork to tell the story for us, nonetheless when there is dialogue between the protagonists and other characters the comedic feel is definitely there and it’s certainly amusing.  In regards to the art work, it’s mischievously charming, freakishly cute and a little psychedelic.  There’s a lot to look at and so much to keep you entertained.  Moreover, to some extent Bong Genie is fantastical as all of the vibrant colours, the crazy construction of the characters and settings and the wacky plot really takes you out of reality.

The main characters, Phil and Tyrone, are fantastic.  They’re lively, eerily adorable and rather reminiscent of the hit 90’s cartoon, Ren and Stimpy.  I can’t wait to follow them on their next adventure.

All in all, Bong Genie is a great comic.  It’s easy to read, funny and different.

Itty Bitty Bunnies creator and cartoonist extraordinaire Dean Rankine lives down under, where Christmas is celebrated in the summer, so it makes perfect sense for his depraved creations to go on a holiday adventure now stateside. It also makes sense to the Bunnies to cook up a big batch of meth to help fund their Yuletide activities! Also available in a “Tickle Me Tyrone gift” variant cover, limited to 1500 copies!

ACTION LAB’S DIGITAL DEBUTS: EXCLUSIVE CONTENT, EXCITING CREATORS, A WHOLE NEW WAY TO READ COMICS!!

Action Lab Extends Line with New Digital First Books

Action Lab Danger Zone is launching a line of “digital first” comics by adding four new series to the mix. Scum of the Earth, Itty Bitty Bunnies in Rainbow Pixie Candy Land, Bo Plushy Gangsta and Crimson Society will all be hitting comiXology in October 2013. The four new comics were announced at San Diego Comic Con 2013.

Bo Plushy Gangsta is a tale of a gang boss who becomes the victim of a voodoo curse and is turned into a cuddly teddy bear, but retains his lethal personality. Created by a Russian video game artist, Bo’s wild concept is equally matched by its amazing visuals.

Itty Bitty Bunnies in Rainbow Pixie Candy Land is by Australian cartoonist Dean Rankine, touted by Action Lab as “the foulest comic you will ever read.” Danger Zone president Jason Martin has described it as, “It’s basically Adventure Time by way of Freak Brothers!”

Scum of the Earth is advertised as “southern-friend grindhouse with a twist”, and Crimson Society features a man, infected with lycanthropy, in a near-future world that puts a new spin on monster archetypes.
