This is the cartoon that introduced one of my favourite Loony Tunes characters; Marvin the Martian, although we don't learn his name just yet.
Bugs Bunny is lured into a rocket which will take him to the moon. Once there he expects to be alone but is soon joined by a strange creature from Mars who has gone there in order to destroy the Earth using his "Uranium Pu-36 Explosive Space Modulator". When Bugs takes his device Marvin summons his strange green dog-like creature to retrieve it. After a bit of word play the dog lets Bugs keep the device but he returns it to Marvin... only to detonate it before it can be used against the Earth.
This was a fun cartoon, Marvin is brilliantly designed; dressed almost like a Roman centurion he has a black sphere for a head which has two large eyes but no other visible features. Voiced by Mel Blanc, he is much calmer than other Loony Tunes characters, even when he is very angry he doesn't raise his voice. I thought he was a great character when I watched these cartoons as a child and still think he is funny when watching as an adult.
