That's One Helluva Bunny
</hdr><body>
<p>By Howard G. Chua-Eoan
</p>
<p> Is that the ferryman on the river Styx? Not quite. Matt
Groening (Gray-ning) is the creator of Life in Hell, the
angst-driven comic strip that is breaking out of cult barriers
and stealing into Middle America. Plans are afoot to spin off
the cartoonist's animated, ornery Simpson family of The Tracey
Ullman Show into a prime-time series. The strip -- with its
traumatized rabbit Binky, the illegitimate one-eared Bongo,
twins Akbar and Jeff and their nephews Gooey, Screwy and
Ratatouille -- now haunts 105 publications. Notes Groening
incredulously: "One paper wanted me to change the strip's name
to Life in Heck." Heavens!
