Declan Antlin is a recurring character in Contact, as well as a guest character in Justice. 
In terms of the series narrative, Declan Antlin is an entertainment magnate and popular host of Toontown events. He notably hosted the Election results in "Voice to the Chorus." 
==Appearances==
===Justice===
Declan made his first appearance in "Voice to the Chorus," when he hosted the Election results live. He was described as charismatic and captivating, and also physically attractive and desirable. He returned in "Trouble" in a news narration of the events of Constance Miller's Oak Street tunnel scandal. 
Though he didn't appear in "The Last Cow," he still helped deliver the news of Clarabelle's arrest and the truth about the Toons of the World vases to Toontown. 
===Contact===
Declan returned in "They Came From the North" during a television broadcast informing Toontown of the events of the day before (depicted in "Hearts Ablaze" and "Banners High"). His tone throughout was grave, and he concluded by informing the town of the arrival of six Cartonians by ship. 
Declan conducted a televised interview with the five non-fox Cartonians in "Welcome to Toontown" after they had been released from prison and transitioned into a house arrest program. He asked extensive questions about each of their backgrounds, their lives in Cartonia, and their decisions that led them out of the Kingdoms and down to Toontown. Though viewership was unprecedented, the interview portrayed the Cartonians as aloof and distant, which did little to cement their innocuousness in the eyes of Toontown. 
Declan's services were required in "This Too Shall Pass" when he announced to Toontown the dire situation of the grey wave and the jail break of Clarabelle Cow and Blair Fawkes. 
Declan's voice appeared in "Split the Heavens" after the Deluge, when he announced that no Cog activity could be located throughout Toontown, heralding the end of the Cogs in Toontown. 
In "Song of the Siren," Declan appeared on television to introduce the crew of the Chipper dinner cruise celebrations, as well as announce the first 200 passengers. In "Out of the Frying Pan," Declan spread the information of the ship's destruction and the arrival of the Vulpus Armada to the Bay of Toontown.
