About the Dance of The Comedians: 75 Years of The Road Runner And Wile E. Coyote

In 1949, director Chuck Jones and writer Mike Maltese made history with “Fast and Furry-ous,” the first Looney Tunes cartoon starring the Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote.

75 years later, these beloved characters have become bona fide cultural icons. Dance of the Comedians covers the entire history of the Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote, tracing their long career in cartoons, comic books, films, television shows, video games, and more. Author Dan Sendker leaves no stone (or giant boulder) unturned as he examines just what makes these characters so famous, and why they still endure today.
