Nasty Canasta



Nasty Canasta is an antagonist of the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies franchise. He was created by the late director Chuck Jones. Canasta is a tough and intimidating outlaw and is mostly more dangerous than the other villains in the series. He is the second boss in the Super Nintendo Entertainment System game, Bugs Bunny Rabbit Rampage and one of Yosemite Sam's henchmen in Looney Tunes: Back In Action.

Role
Nasty Canasta is an outlaw who appeared in three cartoons. He is one of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck's enemies.

He appeared in one episode of The Sylvester & Tweety Mysteries called "B2 or Not B2" where he was voiced by Jim Cummings. But Nasty did not play a villainous role here unlike most of his appearances. He and his wife Inga were both champion bingo players, and were put out of commission by the episode's antagonist.

Canasta also appeared in the TV show Duck Dodgers where voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson.

Canasta later returned in Looney Tunes: Back in Action where he, along with Yosemite Sam and Cottontail Smith teamed up where they try and plan to obtain the map to the Blue Monkey Diamond from DJ Drake.

He also appeared in a couple of video games. In Bugs Bunny Rabbit Rampage, he was a boss character and in Looney Tunes: Acme Arsenal, he was an NPC.
