“Pete, what did you expect?
Much like Archie vs. Predator or the time Archie was hunted by The Punisher, I guess I expected a mayhem-filled, rule-breaking crossover that didn’t really play by the rules of either universe.
Man, Archie really can’t stay out of trouble, can he? I guess it figures, I mean, how many stories can you read about whether he ends up with a rich total babe or a not rich total babe? Did you know, in later Archie books, they were running two parallel worlds, one where he married Betty, one where he married Veronica? They had their cake and ate it. As did Archie. I hear that’s his thing, anyway, he must be offering SOMETHING because he’s a redhead dweeb with a bowtie and a sweater vest in high school.
There’s an easy fix for DC Meets Looney Tunes: Pick a lane for each story.
Lobo going after the Road Runner? Great idea, needs to be a cartoon.
Batman hunting Elmer Fudd for killing Bruce Wayne through an underworld of looney characters? Great idea, pretty much worked, happens in a Dick Tracy kind of world.
Martian Manhunter and Marvin the Martian? Also worked, but just make it in the DC reality.
But the key is to pick one, which they couldn’t do as evidenced by each DC-style story having a Looney Tunes style backup 4-pager. “
