Accidentally frozen in time for 351 years, Duck Dodgers (played by Daffy Duck) is thawed out by Dr. I.Q. Hi in the twenty-fourth and a half Century. Dodger’s uses lies and deceit to convince the Earth’s Defensive Protectorate that, in his time, he was a great hero; when in reality he was really a water-boy for a football team. Given the ship Sisyphus and an Eager Young Space Cadet (Porky Pig), the really cowardly and incompetent Dodger’s is entrusted with protecting Earth from the enemy forces of Mars and their dreaded Commander X-2 (Marvin the Martian).
