----
!!!Tropes applying to this game:

* AdaptationalBadass: Marvin in the actual WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes cartoon is an IneffectualSympatheticVillain who gets easily owned by Bugs most of the time.

* EarthShatteringKaboom: as usual, this is Marvin's goal.

* BadBoss: despite the fact you control Marvin in the game, the Martian Soldiers are still enemies. The reason ? Marvin reveals at the beginning of the game that he makes a habit to fight them for training. Well, at least he captures them when they are defeated instead of killing them...

* TheDragon: K9 and Martian are both co-dragons to Marvin.
