Two more for Death today. I assume the Bizarro is somehow related to “cummerbund” and “moribund” sounding a little sort of alike (though I’m open to other suggestions); and the Buni is a full-fledged CIDU.

This might be a repeat from last year. Hard to tell, thanks to the Comicalypse
Obviously, Pinocchio, Jonah and Ahab have all had interactions with whales. Less obviously… huh???
