History:

(Spidey Super Stories#9/4 (fb)) - The person who would become Funny Bunny became very upset when a stranger sat on her Easter basket full of Easter treats.

(Spidey Super Stories#9/4 (fb) - BTS) - She took to a life of crime, wearing a rabbit costume and stealing others' Easter goodies. She even made the front page in the Daily Bugle newspaper.

(Spidey Super Stories#9/4) - Funny Bunny stole more Easter sweets and then chose the high-profile Easter egg rolling competition on the White House lawn in Washington, DC. Acting on a hunch, Spider-Man went there as well. When the competition started, Funny Bunny leapt out to steal the chocolate, but Spider-Man webbed her up and hauled her away. The American President congratulated Spidey on the capture.

Comments: Created by Jean Thomas (writer), Win Mortimer (pencils), Mike Esposito & Tony Mortellaro (inks). Based on the Electric Company script by Tom Whedon.

Forget the Green Goblin, that is one creepy outfit!

Not sure who played Funny Bunny in the TV series, but the same actors played various roles. What is notable is that the American President in the 1975 story is a black woman.

For non-American readers, the Presidential Easter Egg Roll is held annually on Easter Monday at theWhite House.
