This is a list of characters from the American animated television series Duck Dodgers.
Galactic Protectorate Duck Dodgers
Captain Daffy Edgar Dumas Aloysius Eoghain "the Duck" Dodgers (voiced by Joe Alaskey) was a water boy for a college football team who was accidentally frozen for over three centuries and revived by Dr. I.Q. Hi in the middle of the 24th century. Through scheming and lies, he managed to trick everyone into believing he was a 21st-century hero. dodgers is arrogant, rude, selfish, greedy, lazy, cowardly, gullible, and not particularly intelligent. He occasionally displays surprisingly high levels of heroism and competence, suggesting that he is not quite as daft as he appears to be, although he mostly succeeds through dumb luck and the work of the Eager Young Space Cadet.
Cadet
Eager Young Space Cadet (voiced by Bob Bergen) is the faithful sidekick of Duck Dodgers. Cadet is loyal to Dodgers and looks up to him, seeing him as a father-figure in many ways. Cadet is also fairly successful as a ladies' man, often being the one who ends up with the woman Dodgers swoons over. He graduated summa cum laude from the Protectorate Academy. Very little else is known about his past, though one episode portrays him as being the prince of the planet Swinus 9.
I.Q. Hi Dr. Ignatius Q. "I.Q." Hi (voiced by Richard McGonagle) is a scientist who revived Dodgers after he was frozen for three centuries. He is the Chief Scientist for the Galactic Protectorate and usually acts as a representative on Earth on behalf of the World President. Hi is responsible for giving missions to the team. Serious and hard-working, he is often irritated and frustrated with Dodgers's incompetent side, and doubts that Dodgers truly was a 21st-century hero.
Later episodes also show that I.Q. Hi owns an old castle inherited from his ancestors (which is later destroyed by Dodgers), enjoys lattes, fishing, and despite their rivalries, appears to be on friendly terms with Queen Tyr'ahnee. He also has a brother named Psy Q. Hi, who is a psychiatrist.
Captain Star Johnson Captain Star Johnson is a member of the Space Protectorate who serves as a rival to Duck Dodgers. Johnson once took Dodgers to court over Dodger's incompetence. Since then, Johnson has been involved in freeing Mars from the military coup by General Z9 and searching for gangsters when Dodgers went missing for a brief period of time.
Captain Long Captain Long (voiced by Michael Dorn) is a member of the Galactic Protectorate. He appeared in "The Fudd", where he was one of the victims of the Mother Fudd.
Captain Dallas Rodman Captain Dallas Rodman (voiced by Frank Welker) is a member of the Galactic Protectorate. Rodman solely appears in the episode "The Best of Captains, The Worst of Captains", where he is nominated for Captain of the Year at the Galactic Protectorate's Captainee Awards.
Captain Aurora Soleil Captain Aurora Soleil is a lieutenant in the Galactic Protectorate. At the Captainee Awards, Duck Dodgers and Star Johnson competed for her attention. At the awards, Soleil is promoted to Captain for her heroic actions.
Master Sergeant Emily Dickinson Jones Master Sergeant Emily Dickinson Jones (voiced by Randy Savage) works at the Galactic Protectorate Training Academy on Earth. He is responsible for monitoring Duck Dodgers during his annual Protectorate Training Test, which Dodgers routinely avoids taking. Jones respects individuals who can think out of the box, which led him to let Dodgers pass the test despite the fact Dodgers managed to fail every one of the tests.
Bigfoot Bigfoot (voiced by Michael Patrick McGill) is a maintenance supervisor who worked for the Protectorate and was the first being to receive cyborgan implants. He seems not to be very educated, as the only two words he says are "Duck" and "Stereo".
Martian Empire Queen Tyr'ahnee
Queen Tyr'ahnee (voiced by Tia Carrere) is the ruler of Mars. She is in love with Dodgers and, just like Cadet, believes him to be a true hero. She and Dodgers planned to marry until X-2 persuaded Dodgers to leave Tyr'ahnee. Tyr'ahnee never fully gets over her feelings for Dodgers, to the point of deserting X-2 at their wedding. She is shown to be good friends with I.Q. Hi, knowing and calling him by his first name, Ignatius, on many occasions.
Martian Commander X-2
Martian Commander X-2 Marvin (voiced by Joe Alaskey) is the commander of the Martian military. He is never named outside his official capacity as the Commander (possibly High Commander) of the fleet of Mars. X-2 is Dodgers' archenemy, though X-2 considers Dodgers more of a nuisance than a true enemy. X-2 serves Tyr'ahnee, with whom he is infatuated and loyal to. His crush is not requited for most of the series, until in the end of the second season, when Tyr'ahnee kisses X-2 in the cheek after learning of his crush. Despite their rivalry, both Dodgers and X-2 have worked together in several occasions to fight a common foe.
Commander K-9 Martian Commander K-9 (voiced by Frank Welker) is X-2's dog. He is loyal and loving and will do anything for his master. He'll always protect his master from danger, even if it makes K-9 look bad in front of him.
Martian General Z-9 Martian General Z-9 (voiced by Corey Burton) is a Martian general who serves Tyr'ahnee and X-2, secretly plotting to take over both Earth and Mars as their new ruler. Z-9 then staged a military coup on Mars by taking Tyr'ahnee as prisoner and sending X-2 on the run as a wanted criminal, declaring himself the new Martian King and Commander. Z-9 then plans to get hold of the shut-down codes of Earth's shield system by staging up a false peace treaty between Mars and Earth to finalize his invasion on Earth. Fortunately, Duck Dodgers manages to rescue Cadet, X-2, and Captain Johnson and they collaborated to keep the codes away to safety and save Tyr'ahnee from Z-9's grasp during a battle between Z-9's forces and Earth. Following the aftermath of the battle between Earth and Mars which ended in ceasefire, Z-9 is arrested, then sentenced to be imprisoned alongside the Andromeda Annihilator, who subjects him to painful torture.
Dish Dish (voiced by Tara Strong) is a cyborg who is Z-9's loyal second-in-command and counselor. She aids him into overthrowing Tyr'ahnee and sending X-2 on the run to finalize his takeover of Mars. In a battle between Earth's forces and Z-9's forces, Dish attempts to fire at the Protectorate HQ under Z-9's orders, but Tyr'ahnee stops her by cutting her head off.
