Darkwing Duck

Darkwing Duck #1

/ / Comics

With a new creative team, Darkwing Duck gets a new start at Dynamite Entertainment. Darkwing Duck #1 puts Gosalyn a little more front-and-center than some of the DW comics, with some good-intentioned help that doesn’t go exactly as planned, and returns one of the show’s classic villains when Megavolt takes control of St. Canard through through people’s cellphones (because… electricity?).

Darkwing Duck - Dirty Money

Throwback Tuesday takes us back to crime-ridden streets of St. Canard and a hero who flaps in the night. After a robbery at a bank leaving all the cash without ink and the kidnapping of SHUSH Director J. Gander Hooter (Danny Mann) by Ammonia Pine (Mitzi McCall), Darkwing Duck (Jim Cummings) is forced to work under Vladimir Gryzlikoff (Ron Feinberg).

As in “Darkly Dawns the Duck,” Bulba wants to use the invention (this version pulls in matter from alternate dimensions) for his own fiendish plans. Standing in his way is the granddauther of Bulba’s missing partner, Gosalyn Waddlemeyer (Stephanie Beatriz).
