Roger also starred in a [[Roger Rabbit (comic book)|comic book series]] from April 1990 to September 1991 and a spin-off series called ''[[Roger Rabbit's Toontown]]'', published from June to October 1991, which featured Roger in the first story and supporting characters like [[Jessica Rabbit]] (Roger's voluptuous human wife), [[Baby Herman]] (his co-star in [[Maroon Cartoons]]), [[Benny the Cab]] (Roger's taxicab friend), and the [[Toon Patrol]] (Roger's enemies).

In the 1988 ABC special [[Mickey's 60th Birthday]], Mickey Mouse is punished by a sorcerer for his conceited, "everybody loves me" attitude with a curse which results in no-one knowing who he is. Mickey must now wander the real world as an unknown, until he finally learns humility. After the curse is lifted, Roger Rabbit rediscovers Mickey, and is hailed as a hero.

Disney and [[Amblin Entertainment]] attempted to resurrect Roger for a sequel. However, a preliminary budget was deemed too large and the film never got past the script stage. Several 3D CGI tests and a 3D CGI rendering of Roger were completed, however, despite the fact that no actual footage was actually shot or completed. However, [[Frank Marshall]], the producer of the first film, told MTV in late 2007 that he would be open to any plans to bring the Roger sequel back in the works.
