Alex the Lion

Alex is the main protagonist of the Madagascar franchise. He is a lion who is the star attraction at the the Central Park Zoo.
==Why He Rocks==
#He is very caring to his friends and family, as seen when he's acting savage due to his starvation and isolates himself for the sake of their safety.
#He has a great design.
#Like his best bud Marty, he's extremely funny.
# He usually makes the right decisions after learning what makes him happy.
# He realizes that fame isn’t what his whole life is supposed to be about and that it’s all about being with your loved ones.
# He is also determined to fix things when he knows he spoiled them, like when he fights with Marty, or his attempt to re-fit into the lion's pack or to convince his friends to return to the circus and apologize to everyone.
# He was aware of his savage side during the first film.
# He's able to raise morale to everyone around him and also has good leadership skills (especially in the third film, when he even manages to lead a complete circus).
# Ben Stiller and Wally Wingert do a wonderful performance voicing him.
# His dancing moves in the 2nd film are great and memorable.
# He has even made an appearance on the spinoff series The Penguins of Madagascar and All Hail King Julien.
# He has spawned many internet memes, like "Alex the Lion, what are you doing in my car?".
==Bad Qualities==
# He often thought highly of himself.
# He sometimes has some pretty bad fights with Marty.
# He was somewhat stubborn in the beginning of the first film, firmly refusing to enjoy his time in the wild and wanting nothing more than to go home to New York.
