Marty (Madagascar)

Marty is the deuteragonist of the 2005 full-length animated Dreamworks film, Madagascar, and the two sequels that followed it. He is the best friend of Alex, and a close friend of Gloria and Melman.

Why He Rocks

 * 1) Much like Donkey (another beloved Dreamworks comedic sidekick character), he's shown to be a real riot and manages to steal the show from time to time.
 * 2) He's shown to be very friendly and well-meaning, especially towards his friends.
 * 3) His spit tactic is one of the most memorable things about him.
 * 4) Chris Rock and Phil LaMarr do an amazing job at voicing this character.
 * 5) He's got many memorable lines of dialogue, such as his occasional catchphrase "Crackalackin'" and the infamous "Oh, Sugar Honey Ice Tea!".
 * 6) In the movies, he's shown to be able to survive and live in the wild outside of civilization.
 * 7) His song, Pock-a-dot Afro, from Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted is very short but unforgettable and catchy.
 * 8) He's willing to try new things and convinces his friends to do the same.
 * 9) Despite being afraid of Alex's wild manners in the first movie, he is quick to try and convince him to join the gang to return to New York once the ship gets to Madagascar, because that's how forgiving he is.

The Only Bad Quality

 * 1) He and Alex are sometimes prone to butting heads.
