===Comic books===
Bugs Bunny was continuously featured in comic books for more than 40 years, from 1941 to 1983, and has appeared sporadically since then. Bugs first appeared in [[comic books]] in 1941, in ''[[Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies Comics]]'' #1, published by [[Dell Comics]]. Bugs was a recurring star in that book all through its 153-issue run, which lasted until July 1954. [[Western Publishing]] (and its [[Dell Comics|Dell]] imprint) published 245 issues of a Bugs Bunny comic book from Dec. 1952/Jan. 1953 to 1983. The company also published 81 issues of the joint title ''[[Yosemite Sam]] and Bugs Bunny'' from December 1970 to 1983. During the 1950s Dell also published a number of Bugs Bunny spinoff titles.
