I wonder how many of you know I "auditioned" for the Duck back in my IRON FIST days. Didn't get it, obviously, but it's amusing to ponder the course of my career if I had. Could have deflected me from the path that led to UNCANNY X-MEN.

Well, that would have changed a LOT! Even Hugh Jackman's career!

I think I hear sort of a cross between Ralph Kramden and Bugs Bunny.

And I don't know what a Cleveland accent is either - and I'm a native Clevelander! I hear the usual midwest speech with not too many distinctive features to it.

Thanks all for the suggestions!

Some great ones, I'm leaning towards Archie Bunker, maybe with a little Bugs and even Sylvester the Cat to blend Howard out.

Joe Murray: "I'm having a lil trouble in that I can't "hear" his voice.  I fell onto Daffy Duck now and again, but that doesn't work at all.  Anyone have any helpful hints on who or what Howard may sound like?"

You may be able to find out - HULU has ordered "adult" MARVEL cartoons, and one of them is Howard the Duck:  https://variety.com/2019/tv/news/marvel-hulu-howard-the-duck -modok-hit-monkey-dazzler-tigra-1203134321/

VARIETY: "The shows will be based on the following Marvel characters: Howard the Duck, M.O.D.O.K, Hit-Monkey, and Tigra and Dazzler. Like the Marvel-Netflix “Defenders” shows before them, the four characters will then team up in the animated special “The Offenders.”

I hear Bugs Bunny after a lifetime of smoking cigarettes.
