  Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew
It contained their first new funny animal superheroes in decades — and with the exception of a few licensed properties, their last foray into the funny animal genre for decades to come.
Thus were born Alleycat-Abra, Fastback, Pig Iron, Rubber Duck, Yankee Poodle and, of course, Captain Carrot himself.
DC has very little interest in its funny animal properties these days, but if their attention ever turns that way again, this will probably be one of the first they look at.

BM: Captain Carrot’s world is definitely a darker place than it was in the ‘80s, but not so dark that we won’t be able to have some laughs.

 Slugfest Special - Teen Titans #30 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
Geoff Johns, along with Captain Carrot and the Amazing Zoo Crew creator Scott Shaw!, does what appears to be the impossible; he brings back Captain Carrot.
How Johns is able to interweave the Carrot storyline and the Titans storyline is not quite pure genius, it has been done before after all, but it's a hell of an homage to Watchmen..., up to and including the Watchmen-like “style” of the Carrot book that is being read within the Titans story.
Captain Carrot isn’t the only long-absent hero to grace this issue; the last page is a shocker.
