'''Marvin the Martian''', also occasionally known as '''Commander X-2''', is a major character from the ''Looney Tunes'' franchise. Considered one of the most notable recurring villains, Marvin is a alien from Mars who constantly has plans to destroy the Earth or claim planets for his home planet. His demeanor is meant as a large contrast to other villains in the series; while calm and polite in presentation he is the most dangerous and destructive of any villain in the series. He is often accompanied with his dog K-9, who aids in his plots. Marvin, at the time without a proper name, appeared in only five shorts during the initial theatrical run, starting with 1948's ''Haredevil Hare''. Four of those were against [[Bugs Bunny]]; the fifth, 1953's ''Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century'', pitted him against [[Daffy Duck]] and Porky Pig and is often considered among the top 10 best theatrical animation shorts ever made.
