An imaginative Overwatch 2 player has created a concept skin for Juno that transforms her into Marvin the Martian from the popular cartoon show Looney Tunes. Juno is a new character in Overwatch 2 that was added to the game's roster of heroes in a recent content drop.
On August 20, developer Blizzard Entertainment shipped another major update for Overwatch 2, kicking off Season 12. Headlining the brand-new season is a new support hero named Juno, whereas more content such as the Mythic Reaper hero skin and the Clash Game Mode are also a part of the seasonal update. Juno is described as a Martian support hero who uses equipment like Mediblaster, Pulsar Torpedoes, and Hyper Ring to offer healing, damage, and maneuverability to her team. Thanks to the creativity of a certain player, Juno has received a makeover reminiscent of another popular Martian.
Reddit user Onframer recently posted pictures of their concept skin for Overwatch 2's Juno, showing the game's Martian hero in the guise of Looney Tunes' Marvin the Martian. The concept depicts Juno in full Marvin the Martian attire, right from the white shoes to the green skirt to the Roman soldier-like helmet. Moreover, it also shows the hero sporting a jetpack and brandishing a Mediblaster gun that takes inspiration from Marvin's laser gun. As an added bonus, the player also remade the Mediblaster's display to show Marvin's pet K-9's face for friendlies and nemesis Bugs Bunny's face for enemies. Talking about their fondness of the new Overwatch 2 character, the player revealed being "super excited for Juno."
New Overwatch 2 Hero Juno Reimagined as a Popular Looney Tunes Character
The reimagining of Juno as Marvin the Martian is a fitting mashup, given both characters are shown as Martians in their respective franchises. Certain comments on the post came up with more concept skin suggestions for other similar characters across the two different worlds. Users suggested possible concept images depicting Winston as Gossamer, Mercy as Tweety, Cassidy as Yosemite Sam, Venture as Bugs Bunny, and Roadhog as Porky Pig, among others. Moreover, there were several comments praising the player's work, with one of them saying, "This is amazing art honestly." Through their replies, the player hinted they are working on more Looney Tunes-themed concept skins for Overwatch 2 heroes.
While none of these fan concepts can be expected to make their way into the game, Overwatch 2 already has a variety of hero skins that are included in the newly released Season 12. Interestingly, some of the new additions, such as the Le Sserafim skins, are returning skins that are back only for a limited time. Players who couldn't claim these skins earlier now have the opportunity to go for them again.
