### Other Appearances

Toon Wars: Shorts

Danny Fenton Phantom is the title character from his own series by Butch Hartman in 2004 and a frequent character in the *Nicktoons Unite* series who returns for Frozarburst's Toon Wars crossover series as one of the starring cast. He was a teenage boy who was mutated with ghost energy that gave him an array of superpowers, forcing him to juggle the duty of being a superhero with his everyday life. However, throughout the Nicktoons Unite series, which took place between events of his cartoon, he and his friends became an occasional part of a team of other Nicktoons whenever their worlds were in danger. And years after, in Toon Wars as an adult, he co-founded the Toon Force with Jimmy Neutron and Timmy Turner to fight in a war caused by the Syndicate. In Toon Wars: The Final Days, he returns once again as leader of the Toon Force and regroups the team when reality is in danger even in Jimmy's absence, enduring many gruesome battles, including the devastating Ghost Zone and Toon Goddess fights up until the final confrontation against the Toon God. Following the villain's demise and the deletion of the Virus Entity, Danny accompanied his friends to assess the fix and changes of reality, relieved that the conflict had finally ended. He was also part of the crew of the Javelin, traveling through Unknown Space with his friends to crossover with other media. In the dark future of Dark Disney, Danny's essence is used to make the Phantom Soul Retriever and could be summoned by Max.

He is voiced by David Kaufman.

## Appearance

To quote from the Danny Phantom wiki,"Danny Fenton has black hair and blue eyes. He wears a white T-shirt with a thin red collar, red cuffs, and a red circle in the middle, light
blue jeans, and red-and-white sneakers. When he transforms into Danny Phantom, his hair becomes snow white, his eyes become glowing green, and his skin changes from light to tanned. Danny Phantom wears a black jumpsuit with white boots, collar, belt, and forearm-length gloves. After "Memory Blank," he wears his logo, a white "D" with the negative space inside it forming a "P," on his chest."

   In the Toon Wars series, he appears much taller and broad but still maintains his original look from the cartoon and *Nicktoons Unite* until the events of Magiswords: Echoes where along with his outfit, which at the time was unfinished from modification, his physical appearance had been drastically changed from fighting and age. By design, he still keeps his physical build with a slight gain in muscle mass, but his skin tone is now permanently pale in and out of his ghost form. His hair has a grey or black streak depending on his form and appears to have bags under his eyes; a sign that he's growing tired from the past three sagas. His hair has also grown longer, appearing with a slight curve from either side.

His upgraded suit's inner workings are exposed in Magiswords Echoes, detailing several mechanized armor parts constructed by Jimmy and the Fentons. While the finished model has its shell hidden and appears more akin to that of his original design, but with more silver parts and green highlights that go black if powered down to his human form. His Phantom logo also is highlighted green instead of silver.

## Personality

As a teenager, Danny was awkward but friendly to people and very much a glorified hero at heart when he is given his ghost powers after the portal accident. He is very compassionate to others, including some of the ghosts he meets such as Wulf and Frostbite. And his bravery and determination to protect his city kept him going, along with his close friendship with Sam Manson and Tucker Foley, who are always there to help him in both school and his adventures. However, with the struggles of balancing his life between hero, family life, and school life, he grew frustrated even to the point of trying to give up his powers to cope. Or in most cases, heavily blame himself when he fails to protect anyone from anything (which in of itself ended up leading to the creation of the otherwise ruthless Dan Phantom). Nevertheless, he always managed to persevere and maintained his maturity and heroics throughout his life, even when all odds are stacked against him.

In contrast to Timmy Turner and Spongebob Squarepants in the Nicktoons Unite series, Danny is seen to be the most mature of the team next to Jimmy Neutron and even led the Nicktoons in *Volcano Island* in Jimmy's absence. This leadership role remained that way in his own fan miniseries, Wrath of the Phantom, and the Toon Wars series, where along with Jimmy and Timmy was leader and founder of the Toon Force and led a multitude of battles with them. Most notably in Magiswords: Echoes, Danny is seen to be very encouraging, not only motivating lesser fighters like the Cave Weirdos but also fighting with them in the heat of battle. Eventually, however, he grew tired of fighting in Toon Wars: The Final Days until he was forced to step back in the role of leadership immediately after the team was disbanded. Although much of the Toon Force had doubt, given the dire situation they're in throughout the arc, Danny still keeps his head high and supports everyone personally. Most especially Spongebob, who was absent in the Toon Wars until this point, as well as Bimm whom he felt extremely sorry for. He is, fortunately, relieved when the conflict ends after many gruesome challenges throughout.

## Armors

### Defaults

* Phantom Suit: The original Phantom suit was a jumpsuit worn by Danny Fenton before stepping into the Ghost Portal and accidentally activating it while he was inside. This caused him to first gain his ghost powers while also permanently merging his suit with his clothes, transforming them into his default hero-suit whenever he goes ghost. While it was most iconic and almost always used by him, Danny's suit was also prone to multiple damages that reveal tears and scratches for a majority of his battles. Later on in the third arc of Toon Wars, it would quickly become apparent that his suit had quickly begun to ware, tearing so much that it completely exposed his bare chest and shoulders, prompting a redesign from his parents and Jimmy Neutron.
* Type-2 Armor (10-Year Armor): During the later half of the Toon Wars following the events of the Samurai Jack Saga, Danny's original outfit was heavily modified into a cybernetically enhanced armor Danny can spawn at will over his regular outfit, which debuted in a prototype phase in Magiswords: Echoes. The suit is visibly powered by the raw ecto energy coming from inside of Danny and also energized by a reserve power source invented by Jimmy Neutron running on plasma in the second layer of his suit, including his own ectoranium material. Due to the nature of his mechanized armor, he was constantly met with the fear of it ever malfunctioning due to a glitch. To avoid this, Jimmy made sure that the suit itself was built almost identical to its original design with lesser equipment so it would be easier to maneuver in. There are two layers of the suit: the inner shell and outer shell, which are both insulted and powered with nanotechnology. Thanks to these upgrades, Danny was able to adjust to them and would continue to use the armor throughout the rest of the series. However, in the Final Days Saga, it is shown that if damaged enough, Danny's flesh will be much easier to expose. In the arc, Danny's back is visibly injured, though this was done in part of a much stronger attack by surprise, meaning in order to break through his gear, an opponent will have to perform a more forceful maneuver.

## Stats

At first, even with his strength being boosted by his power whenever he transformed, Danny still needed more experience against greater foes throughout his series to get more acquainted with his abilities and how to use them. His most toughest opponents included Vlad Plasmius, Dan Phantom, and Pariah Dark; the latter having Danny use a mech suit to even the odds. Pariah was defeated in the episode he appeared in, but for almost every other appearance Vlad makes, Danny either struggles or matches his strength despite the former's experience over the years. The same happens for the Nicktoons Unite and Toon Wars series where against those like the Mawgu or the resurging Dan Phantom, he is overpowered by them but still manages to hold his own until he finds a solution and defeats them. Both in particular required Danny to have assistance in combat (though at first, Dan was defeated by Danny alone); Dan having he and much of his friends and family, and the Mawgu having Spongebob and the other Nicktoons.

After the cartoon, Danny's power had been increased to the point where he is evenly matched with Vlad regardless of the time and can take on overwhelming numbers of enemies without the need for a mech suit, usually thanks to his ice powers or air superiority. He is, however, able to be trapped by magic-based users like Aku and the Mawgu (i.e. when the latter used a bubble to disable Danny's ghost form or Aku using a web to prevent him from going intangible). Nevertheless, Danny continued to persevere against his foes and had eventually defeated Vlad with a surprise maneuver in the final battle against the Syndicate. However, in the middle of Magiswords Echoes, Danny had started to show signs of fatigue from fighting for so long when he struggles against even the smaller Echo Drones. This would especially become apparent when he is cornered by the corrupted ghosts of the Ghost Zone and critically wounded by Amethyst, causing him to go into an extensive period of recovery in the middle of Toon Wars: The Final Days. This did not stop him from leading the team with Timmy and occasionally physically helping them in combat only using his special abilities stealthily and defensively until he recovers halfway into the story. He was able to hold his own against the Crystal Gems, whom the Toon Goddess believed to be the strongest cartoon, and exploited their weaknesses with the team. Though against the Toon Goddess, he was quickly defeated when she countered his team combo and stabbed him. Surprisingly, this too wasn't enough to kill him as he was still able to endure the pain and fight in a limited capacity. The same also applied for the Toon God, who was arguably his worst opponent, at one point trying to keep the man back to save Jimmy from being choked. While holding both arms, the Toon God's energy aura was enough to mangle and fry Danny's arms. But through the pain, he was able to endure it long enough to strike the man down to temporary submission at the cost of the use of his arms.

Against those of his own like Sam, Jimmy, Timmy, and Spongebob, Danny finds himself at equal odds with them despite their looks and limited abilities. Sam in particular was once corrupted by Undergrowth and became queen of his plant empire. Although not engaging hand-to-hand against her, Danny has been cornered and trapped by her a number of times almost to near death. Even without the influence, Sam on her own is physically capable of competing with him and anyone else. The other Nicktoons were also able to match up to Danny; Jimmy using science and gadgetry to his advantage, Timmy with useful wishes, and Spongebob with an array of bubble constructs. At one point, when overshadowing Timmy to become Timmy Phantom, both were capable of battling Jimmy to a standstill when he activated a power boost. But he was still damaged severely like both Jimmy and Timmy.

## Trivia

* Danny Phantom's redesign present after the Samurai Jack Saga was based on the design by Butch Hartman 10-years later with some slight modifications to keep it more stylized like the show.
	+ When Danny first appears in Toon Wars, he was originally supposed to be wearing the upgraded outfit. This was quickly changed so it would instead appear late into the series.
* Like Timmy, who mainly partners with Jimmy, Danny often partners with Spongebob when crossed over with one another. They're most prominently shown together like this in Battle for Volcano Island and Toon Wars: The Final Days.
* Danny's POW Card, according to K.O., is "Phantom." This confused Danny since numbers only appear for those in K.O.'s world, but stats at the time indicated he was level 15 midway in the war.
* Danny, at least in Toon Wars, had committed one crime. He accidentally blew up a farm while fighting a ghost costing 1 million in property damage without telling anyone. To this day, no one knows it was him.
* For one moment in Danny's transformation scene in his fight against Mechanikat and the Dogstars, his body flashes a blue aura instead of a traditional warm green. This, like many instances, is a possible sign that Danny has achieved/about to achieve Absolute Power.
* In Toon Wars: Shorts, Frozarburst compares Gumball and Danny's relationship to Iron Man and Spider-Man from the *Marvel Cinematic Universe*.
	+ Similarly, Danny's guest appearance in Magiswords: Echoes is similar to Hulk's in *Thor Ragnorok*.
* Initially as a child, Frozarburst did not like *Danny Phantom* but quickly grew to enjoy the series after playing as Danny in *Nicktoons Unite*. He has since become a fan favorite of his and appears in a majority of his fan works. Most especially Toon Wars: Shorts.
* In almost every cover for the Toon Wars, Danny is front and center even if other notable characters are missing.
* In Magiswords Echoes, Danny would have said to Vambre and Prohyas "Sometimes you need someone to tell you, no. Bad idea." It's likely this was done to keep them from making a mistake in light of the times they had in their own series, echoing his wisdom from the errors he made.
* The pose Danny makes holding the Ecto-Yarn Magisword is the same as a pose from Goku in a cover for *Return of Cooler*.
