Marvin the Martian

Marvin the Martian is one of the many iconic characters from the Looney Tunes. Aside from the Looney Tunes being famous all over the world, there always being a Looney Tunes fandom on the internet, and him being a fan favorite, Marvin has an odd but dedicated small following of fans that find him devastatingly adorable.
==Basic Information==
Marvin is a Martian (obviously) who finds himself butting heads with Bugs Bunny and sometimes Daffy Duck when attempting to blow up Earth. Unlike fellow antagonists Elmer Fudd or Yosemite Sam, Marvin is actually competent and as clever as whichever protagonist he's up against. He's appeared in both stand-alone Looney Tunes shorts and the 2003 TV show Duck Dodgers. For the canon of the latter, Marvin is known as "Commander X2", commanding the Martian army and serving under Queen Tyr'ahnee, who he is in love with and who may also be a Tumblr Sexywoman in her own right. In this show, his rivals are Daffy and Porky Pig, who are referred to as Duck Dodgers and the Eager Young Space Cadet. Marvin's character changes by being more openly malicious as he's determined to see Duck Dodgers fail, but it could be out of jealousy, as the duck almost got married to his Queen. He isn't above occasionally joining forces with Duck Dodgers and the Young Space Cadet to fight a greater evil or achieve the same goal, however. In the show, Marvin is shirtless and has a somewhat prominent chest which adds onto his Sexyman allure.
(It should be noted that Duck Dodgers is apparently a show within the Looney Tunes universe, seeing as the opening credits list Commander X2 as being "played by Marvin the Martian".) 
==Archetypes==
===Distinctive Voice===
Marvin speaks in what is best described as a "soft but nasally" voice. It's typically very alien sounding but iconic and easily recognizable. He's had many voice actors over the years, the first being Mel Blanc (who did almost all of the voices in the original run of Looney Tunes during the Golden Age of Animation), but generally the favorite of people attracted to him is Joe Alaskey, who voiced him in the 90s and 2000s and gave him the ability to sort of threateningly purr his words that drives his fans wild. Here's a good example of this. Alaskey voiced Marvin in the aforementioned Duck Dodgers cartoon where he's shirtless. His current voice actor in most official Looney Tunes media is Eric Bauza, as unfortunately Joe Alaskey passed away in 2016.
===Creacher===
Marvin the Martian is an alien. It's been stated by his designers that he was intended to resemble an ant.
===Quotable Catchphrase(s)===
*"Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an Earth-shattering kaboom!" (This one is probably his most famous quote that even people outside the Looney Tunes fandom are familiar with.)
*"Isn't that lovely/delightful?"
*"This makes me very angry... (audible angry huffing breathing) ...very angry indeed!"
*"I'm a Martian! Not a great white shark!" (Marvin singing in The Looney Tunes Show.)
===Smol===
One of the shorter Looney Tunes character especially compared to Bugs and Daffy.
===Theme Song===
Very disputable, but Marvin sings an earworm of a song in The Looney Tunes Show.
==Fanon Tropes==
===LGBTQ+ Coded===
There isn't really a trope that fits this better so this will have to do. A lot of people in his fandom like to interpret the fact that his uniform includes a skirt as him being gender nonconforming. He also frequently is depicted in canon with mannerisms that were probably intended to come off as weird or alien but end up just looking somewhat feminine/campy, so that contributes to fan perception of him.
===Neurodivergent Coded===
Some fans like to consider Marvin to be autistic or neurodivergent as they relate to some of his mannerisms which resembles stimming with alleged evidence being found in Duck Dodgers (where we again remind you, was the cartoon in which he was shirtless.) Other fanon traits that fans like to give him are, for a lack of a better word, not so wholesome.
