Killing Bunnies and Dissolving Rubik’s Cube

The Andy Riley Bunny Suicide exhibition in the ECC is a huge success. At the opening, Andy Riley was so kind to draw some cartoons in the two Bunny Suicide books I own.

I recently found the cartoon book “ DISSOLVING RUBIK'S CUBE The Ultimate Solution.” by Ken Lawless. I own a Dutch edition (Mondria, 1982): “Kubieke Humor of: Hoe kom ik van die kubus af ?!”  In this book, Ken Lawless does the same with Rubik’s Cube, as Andy Riley does with Bunnies.
I don’t know if Andy Riley knows of this book, but It’s surprising to notice some similarities in the ideas of the two cartoonists. Here are some examples:
