I'd love to hear more about this. Does the Brujo's Coyote take it in
the shorts as regularly as Chuck Jones'? I always thought of the
Coyote of legend as a successful rather than a schlemiel trickster.
Chuck Jones' intended prey, the Roadrunner, comes off as much
more of a badass, despite his lack of Acme munitions.
Otherwise, I'm with you in enjoying the moire of allusions and
references, and which ones "fatten up" or dimensionalize the reading
and which ones stay flat is, as always, left as an exercise for the
reader.
