I was never much into the Looney Tunes bandwagon (more of a Hanna-Barbera fan actually) but when I first caught a glimpse of Duck Dodgers on the Boomerang Channel, that was it! I have been following it loyally ever since. The show is funny, very graphically-detailed and well put together. The relationship between Dodgers and his "eager space cadet" Porky kills me with laughter, as does his hi-jinx confrontations with his rival Marvin the Martian, all amid
the "cold war/ us versus them" face-off between Earth and Mars. I love the ship designs , not to mention plots borrowed from other science-fiction movies and shows (i.e. the episode where the Martian Queen pursues Dodgers into a Nebula thus provoking a game of hide-and-seek a-la-Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan). I honestly cannot get enough of this show; for a cartoon, in my opinion, it is definitely up there with all sci-fi/comedy/actioners! Wonderfully thought out indeed.
