What does the Pageticker team say about Bunny vs Monkey: Rise of the Maniacal Badger?
More fast-paced Bunny Monkey comic energy, outrageous inventions and wonderfully silly animal characters in this chaotic woodland adventure. Bunny and Monkey’s uneasy teamwork gives the story a satisfying theme of putting differences aside, while the lively panels and visual jokes make it especially appealing to fans of graphic novels and the wider series. The cartoon peril and constant mayhem are playful rather than frightening, but newcomers may enjoy it most with some knowledge of the earlier books.
