Roger Rabbit is a fictional cartoon rabbit. The character first appeared in the book Who Censored Roger Rabbit?, which was loosely adapted as the film Who Framed Roger Rabbit; both stories center around a world in which animated films are produced by filming actual living cartoon characters, or "toons", who coexist with the human world in 1940s Los Angeles.

Roger also starred in a comic book series from April 1990 to September 1991 and a spinoff series called Roger Rabbit's Toontown - which featured Roger in the first story and supporting characters like Jessica Rabbit (Roger's Wife), Baby Herman (his co-star in Maroon Cartoons), Benny the Cab (Roger's Taxi Cab friend), and The Weasels (Roger's Enemies) - from June to October 1991. Roger Rabbit isn't as popular as he used to be but he isn't to be forgotten.
