I'll Kill Him!

”You don't really mean you'll kill me, do you?”

Counterpart to [link] and a commission for , who wanted to see a scene from 12 Angry Men (1957) crossed-over with the Looney Tunes, during the murder trial where the escalating dispute between the principled juror #8, played by Bugs Bunny, and the vicious juror #3, played by Sylvester, reaches its breaking point…#3 wants nothing more than to convict the defendant so he can be sentenced to death, and #8 calls him out on wanting to see someone die, referring to him as a sadist, which only causes his vengeful nature to surface…so much that he has to be restrained by jurors #5, 6, and 7 (Claude Cat, Barnyard Dawg, and Daffy Duck, respectively) as the rest of the jurors look on in varying degrees of shock. (Porky Pig, Foghorn Leghorn and the Roadrunner as #2, 10 and 12 are onscreen here accompanying #8.) Let’s just say this pic is the P.O.V. of one of the offscreen jurors.

Now that I think of it, drawing the Roadrunner wearing clothes gives me an unfortunate reminder of Rev Runner from Loonatics Unleashed, but he was the first one who came to mind when I thought of Juror #12.
