Goofy (Disney)

Goofy Goof (simply known as Goofy) is a main character of the Mickey Mouse franchise. Clumsy but ultimately good-natured, Goofy is one of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck's best friends. However, he is not too bright and this can lead to problems sometimes. He is Clarabelle Cow's boyfriend and the father of Max Goof. 
Despite being one of the heroes, he was once shown as malicious during Motor Mania, a Disney short that reveals an alternate personality of Mr. Walker when he is driving.
In the 1992-1993 TV series Goof Troop, Goofy lives in the town of Spoonerville with his son Max and their cat Waffles and lives next door to his high school friend Pete, his wife Peg, their children P.J. and Pistol, and their dog Chainsaw.
He was voiced by the late Pinto Colvig (1932-1938, 1940-1967), the late George Johnson (1939-1943), the late Hal Smith (1967-1983, 1986-1987), the late Tony Pope (1979-1988) and currently by Bill Farmer since 1987. His hollering voice is also provided by the late Hannes Schroll since 1941.
==Personality==
Goofy's most notable personalities are how clumsy, dim-witted, and, of course, goofy he is. These are also his main flaws, and even Mickey and Donald sometimes consider him rather annoying because of that.
His behavior is often played for laughs, and there were time when he can be considered to be a comic-relief type of character when he's paired with other characters.
Aside from this, he is also charming and lovable, and Mickey and Donald still consider him very close friends. He is a nice guy, has a very good heart, and speaks with a southern drawl. He is great at sports and raising children, and has shown a degree of intelligence occasionally, and can notice things others can't at times.
He is always willing to help out and has the best intentions at heart, but sometimes causes a lot of problems, which can be annoying at best and disastrous at worst, which even he himself finds embarrassing. He's caring and supportive towards his friends and family and doesn't like being alone. Goofy can be be a little bit overprotective of his son, Max, but he still loves him deeply.
Max is also embarrassed by Goofy several times, but he still cares about his father. Goofy hates being thought of and referred to as dumb, as he is aware of his limited intelligence, and while he is calm and much more patient than Mickey, Donald and Daisy, being rarely angry, he loses his patience when someone says something insulting about him, refers to him as stupid or make him seem like he is, like when he realizes that Max lied to him and tricked him about the path on the map. Despite being bitter at the time towards Max and arguing with him as the car fell into the river, Goofy openly admitted that he just wanted to be a part of his life and that no matter how much Max grows up, he will always be his son, showing that he truly cares for and loves his only son.
==As Super Goof==
In the story The Ultra Goof against The Phantom Blot created by Del Connell and Paul Murry published in April 1965, Goofy is under the illusion that it has acquired superpowers that do not yet possess. In the next story Goofy and the lesser evil, consisting of only four tables and always made by the same duo of authors, the awkward inhabitant of Mickey Mouse wearing a cape made from special Gyro Gearloose and can artificially acquire real super powers. However, this mini-adventure the character is only sketched and have not yet been clearly defined its characteristics. The story of Goofy and the robbers of Zanzipar is considered the official debut of the character, who manages to earn (for a limited time) superhuman powers by eating some peanuts cultured from a plant grown in his garden.

==Trivia==
*Despite Mickey and Donald being the top stars, Goofy was Walt Disney's favorite character.
*Goofy is known for having more than one love interest/girlfriend unlike his friends/companions.
*In his 1930's cartoon appearances, Goofy commonly wore a black vest, blue pants, a turtleneck shirt (colored either red or orange), white gloves, extra-long brown shoes, and a very distinctive hat (either blue or green). This has been the character's iconic look ever since, even though it was seldom featured in cartoons after the 1930's.
*His original concept name was "Dippy Dawg" in cartoon shorts created during the 1930s; then his name was given as "George Geef" or "G.G. Geef" in cartoon shorts during the 1950's, implying that "Goofy" was a nickname. Contemporary sources, including the Goof Troop television show and A Goofy Movie, now give the character's full name to be Goofy Goof. The Goof Troop pilot also refers to 'G. G. Goof' on a diploma, likely a reference to the 1950's name.
*Goofy also appears in the YouTube series Cartoon Beatbox Battles with his opponent Patrick and lost.
*Goofy also appeared in DEATH BATTLE along with Donald watching the fight between Sora and Pit.
*In the Japanese version of the Kingdom Hearts games, he was voiced by the late Yuu Shimaka.
