Are issues of Conan, The Frazetta Cover Series just reprints of his work inside? Do they contain stories? If so, are they good? They are sitting in dollar boxes at a local store and I want to know if it’s worth it to make a second trip back there this week...(cue the “It’s Frazetta! Of course go back you moron” responses)

It’s badass Dick love interest, but okay. XD. For the solo parts he got in Star-Spangled Comics, this was one of the best. Yeah, just being cheeky. And I really like those solo Robin stories in Star-Spangled Comics!

DC is part of WarnerMedia, right? So why did they publish re-imagined Hannah-Barbera comics, but there's no Captain Carrot/Bugs Bunny crossover? Or Animaniacs Meet the Legion of Super-Pets?

Nobody thought of it? Re: Captain Carrot-they'd have to pay Roy Thomas some royalties and we can't have that! You want a crossover? Space Ghost and the Legion of Superheroes!

Same as above, and we also have the Hanna-Barbera/DC crossovers. We got Deathstroke/Yogi Bear, for gods’ sake.

Way better than it had any right to be.

Because nobody cares about Captain Carrot and it's less likely to sell. Because there's less significant contrast between the characters so it's less interesting. Because the creators didn't want too. There's tons of potential reasons.

I have to turn my nose up on looney tunes crossing over with the DC heroes. Silliest thing I ever heard of.

Archie vs the Punisher sounded like a trainwreck; yet, it was one of the best crossovers in a flurry of Marvel crossovers, second only to Batman/Captain America and Amalgam.
Sometimes, something which sounds dumb on paper has a seed of brilliance that flourishes. Who'd have thought a movie with Jean Claude Van Damme, about him being a washed up star caught in an attempted robbery would actually be a really good film and allow him to actually act? Or Michael Keaton in a film about a washed up actor who played a superhero becoming obsessed with the character, as he tries to stage a play?
Who Framed Roger Rabbit sounded like a longshot; but was brilliantly funny and the Donald and Daffy scene was classic (not so much Mickey and Bugs).

Because the creators didn't want too. There's tons of potential reasons. I didn't literally mean Captain Carrot. It could be any DC character crossing over with any Warner Brothers character. Somebody mentioned above that there was a Batman/Elmer Fudd crossover. Why not others? ETA: Grant Morrison did it covertly in "The Coyote Gospel," which is considered a classic. So maybe not as ridiculous as icctrombone thinks, depending on implementation of course.
