Daffy Duck is an animated cartoon character in the Warner Brothers Looney Tunes series of cartoons. He first appeared in the 1937 cartoon Porky's Duck Hunt, directed by Tex Avery. Most of Daffy's cartoons were directed by Chuck Jones and his voice was provided by Mel Blanc.
Unlike Bugs Bunny who represents victory. Daffy Duck represents defeat. He is well known for messing up situations that he is in. He appears with Bugs Bunny in a number of cartoons in which Bugs ends up in the advantage. He also appears with Porky Pig in a number of parodies of television and movie genres of the 1940s and 1950s.
In his early career Daffy was merely irascible, not unlike Donald, but Jones's direction revealed a deeper duck. His appearance in Duck Amuck (1953) is accounted a classic of filmmaking. Duck Amuck has been selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry.
