Behind the scenes

• This is the first even appearance of Marvin the Martian and K-9.
  • At the time, Marvin had no actual name but was referred to as Antwerp.
  • He also has a vastly different voice, with it being more nasally that usual.

Everlasting Influence

• Marvin returns in "The Hasty Hare" with the voice we are all familiar with today.
  • Marvin himself also became a hit, but Warner Bros would not profit off of him until July 16, 1969 when the moon landing happened and there was a high demand for space themed merchandise. Marvin would also be given the name Marvin.
