But a rocket is not a racoon
If you watch the latest Guardians, Rocket does come to the realization (and acceptance) that he is, in fact, a raccoon.
I think the joke was to quote Rocket

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_Raccoon
Seems like "Rocket Raccoon" is most certainly a raccoon.
Rocket... The Trash Panda?!
What about the racoon that tried to wash cotton candy, only for it to be absorbed, leaving him with nothing but sadness and confusion.
Sly Cooper, anyone?

Bob's Burgers has the famous Little King Trashmouth and his husband Gary.
Let's not leave El Diablo out, or Little Baby Pudding Snatcher.
Oooooooooooooooooh!
Hmm! hmm! Hmm!
Clearly from not "Canada in the late 80s"
Or that more decent dead one everyone left offerings to in Toronto
There was a whole show about Raccoons in the late '80s & early '90s. I still remember Bert Raccoon's name so he must have been at least somewhat famous. I admit I didn't remember the other raccoons' names without looking them up, but it has been a while.
Looks like many episodes are up on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@runwithusproductions/videos
Also, I'm surprised no-one's said Tom Nook, even though he's technically a tanuki, not an actual raccoon.
What about the raccoons from that show The Raccoons?
Only Canadians of middle age will remember them.
Can’t think of any famous raccoons? Has he even played doughnut county?
A great indie gem! Highly recommend it.
Does this raccoon know about Conrad?

So I came here to mention this!
Rocky Raccoon and Bullwinkle Moose.
Iz it not moose and skvuirrel, comrade?
I always figured that was Russian Disinformation. But today I think I'll blame... The Beatles.

What about Ranger Rick.
sly cooper
That expression has a completely opposite meaning depending on whether we're doing the limbo or doing high jump.

Franklin is famous. So is The Kid.
No love for Rambley the Raccoon?
I think I just found my spirit animal
