Daffy Duck is an animated cartoon character in the Warner Brothers
Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of cartoons. Daffy was the first
of the new breed of "screwball" characters that emerged in the late 1930s
to supplant traditional everyman characters, such as Mickey Mouse and
Popeye, who were more popular earlier in the decade. Daffy is known as the
best friend of Bugs Bunny, though, he is known to be jealous of Bugs, as
shown in Looney Tunes: Back in Action.
Virtually every Warner Brothers animator put his own spin on the Daffy
Duck character, who may be a lunatic vigilante in one short but a greedy
gloryhound in another. Bob Clampett and Chuck Jones both made extensive
use of these two very different versions of the character.
