#you know sometimes I wonder like
#if people who follow this blog but not my main blog have any idea what to expect here anymore
#anyway I loveee little titbits and trivia about long-running characters and how they developed over the years
#especially when there are noticeable differences between early instalments and their later more well-known versions
#e.g. m.oominmamma didn't get her apron until the newspaper comics!
#so learning that marvin's original internal name was antwerp is cool!!
#which is such a fun name in itself!! bc not only is that said to derive from the myth of roman solider
#it can also be read as a portmanteau of ant and twerp! marvin's cute for the alliteration and satisfying similarity to martian
#but man that's a good bunch of wordplay
#I also love consuming any sort of supplementary/promotional/concept material of things and finding out mel blanc once recorded a song
#called ''antwerp is my name'' for like a stage show or something which is Likely lost media by now is
#Such a shame
#bc that was probably the only time it was officially used outside of chuck jones' personal notes before his current name was chosen
#lost media my beloathed :(
#not searching for it that's fascinating but just that it like. occurs at all
#anyway hi I didn't post any art for over month thank you for reading my infodumping here
#oh & also I know he's been shown without the helmet & he really is just a little bowling ball. but I want to believe
