🐰📺 TODAY IN HISTORY – April 30, 1938

On April 30, 1938, a kinda crazy rabbit with a mischievous look and a tongue sharper than a BBB edit was born—or like, almost born—the icon that would totally redefine animated humor: 🐇 “Happy Rabbit,” the prototype for Bugs Bunny, made his debut in a Warner Bros. short called Porky’s Hare Hunt.

On April 30, 1938, a kinda crazy rabbit with a mischievous look and a sharper tongue than a reality show edit…
was born — or almost — the icon that would redefine animated humor:

🐇 “Happy Rabbit,” the prototype for Bugs Bunny, first appeared in a Warner Bros. short called Porky’s Hare Hunt.

🌀 He didn’t say “What’s up, Doc?” yet.
But he was already a jokester, quick, sassy, and totally charismatic.
Just enough to officially become Bugs Bunny a few years later.

💥 So what does this have to do with digital creative economy?

EVERYTHING.

Bugs was one of the first transmedia characters in history.
Star of series, movies, games, products, memes, and conversational AI (!).
He created the model for animated IP that’s now used by Marvel, Pixar, DreamWorks, and even TikTokers with virtual avatars.

🎯 Moral of the story: Don’t underestimate the first draft.
Sometimes it turns into a billion-dollar rabbit.
