Bubsy is running along collecting yarn balls like a boss when he sees a Woolie from behind. Initially he thinks it is kinda cute. It suddenly turns to face him and Bubsy suddenly realizes in abject horror that these are the most abhorrent creatures that have ever existed. He subsequently dies from the literal ugliness of this wretched being.
I don't know what's funnier, the fact that you mentioned Bubsy at all, or the fact that you have played Bubsy enough to be able to joke about it...  

A lot of people have a few games that summed up their childhood.  This cross between super mario and sonic the hedgehog was one of mine.  When I saw Katie had acquired it I knew it was my destiny to come up with comic ideas for it. I played so much I still know the passwords and I haven't played in years. 
I don't really know how to form a lead for this punchline, but there ought to be a comic where Bubsy and Knuckles collide in midair, because one of his game mechanics is also gliding from high places. I mean, at least people can say Knuckles floats on his dreads, but Bubsy is a bobcat in a t-shirt. He's probably the guy who taught Altaïr how to land in a haystack or something.
And the ways he can die are just crazy. There's obvious things like killer bees and just getting too close to the enemy, but then you've got all the unorthodox stuff like getting shot at by sentient gumball machines and having ice cream dripped on you or being crushed by a dancing hotdog in a bun... And then there isn't even a password for the final boss level, so if you die or just need to get some sleep you have to beat the three levels before the boss level all over again, and those three levels are. The. Toughest.
And don't get me started on Bubsy 2.
