Hoppy the Marvel Bunny is a comic book superhero, an anthropomorphic pink rabbit. He was created by Chad Grothkopf (1914 - 2005) in 1942, and originally published by Fawcett Comics as a funny animal spin-off of their popular Captain Marvel character, and got his own comic book in 1945. His actual superhero name is Captain Marvel Bunny (or simply Marvel Bunny), and his mild-mannered alter-ego is referred to simply as Hoppy.
Hoppy is now owned by DC Comics, and has made periodic appearances in Captain Marvel-related stories. He also appeared in The Oz-Wonderland War alongside Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew. Hoppy was lampooned in a short featured on the DVD release of The Incredibles.[citation needed]
[edit] Powers and Abilities
Hoppy has powers roughly similar to those of Captain Marvel. He accesses his powers by yelling "SHAZAM!" but his pantheon differs. His patron deities are Salamander, Hogules, Antlers, Zebreus, Abalone and Monkury.
