So apparently Negaduck from Darkwing Duck is getting his own comic book series!

On the one hand, I've had issues (rimshot) with the ongoing DWD run.

On the other hand, I'd love to have a series that explores his background, and LBR, evil ham like him are a delight so count me in as invested.

Some of the first issue variants

And as for the plot we have thus far - "he’s ready to begin a reign of crime and terror the likes of which St. Canard has never seen — except… dang it, all of the other villains are ripping off his ideas! What’s a criminal mastermind to do when the city’s thick with other criminals, stealing his shine? Why, take his villainy on the road, of course!"

Oh so that's why he's the new hero in Disney Heroes Battle Mode!

Possibly! I mean Negs has always been one of the most popular DWD characters, so when that news came out I wasn't surprised, but at the same time if it's related, I wouldn't be shocked. I can already tell certain people on my twitter feed are gunna go bananas XD

An interesting surprise!

While I’m in the subject, I’ll never forgive the universe for canceling the Silvani and Sparrow run for many reasons and this Negaduck page is one of them

They were clearly going to lead up to something later down the line with that, like. That's a panel that lives in my mind rent-free.

Especially given that he technically has "his own" Gosalyn in the Negaverse (Nega!Bushroot even says "Gosalyn's guardian is Negaduck) and GODDAMMIT I WANTED TO KNOW THE CONTEXT, THE FEELINGS, THE IDEAS THAT SILVANI AND SPARROW WERE GOING TO GO WITH THIS, AUGH

AGREE SO HARD

and again with negsy, the DWD#7 variant will have him on a cover taking the mickey (rimshot again) on a batman cover

oh-ho, here are some page previews for the Negaduck comic Oh damn, the return of Lilliput? Amazing.

though the idea of DW having a statue makes me laugh because you know damn well he became 110% more insufferable that day

okay, this variant cover made me chuckle

Ahh, the memevestments in that one. XD

He has to make time in his daily schedule to pose next to his statue

okay but then the next day that statue is vandalized all to hell and he is aghast, ready to go after every villain in the city to find out who did it

Cut to Gosalyn inching all her spray cans behind her back

Oh Gosalyn... And she tells embarrassing stories about him to curious tourists

She’s doing it so everyone knows he’s just like you and me and to keep him humble and definitely not in revenge for being grounded

Another variant for 7. This is how Darkwing (and Morgana and LP) sees himself.

He commissioned that cover

pffff. "Make sure the cape is extra swooshy. That Edna woman has no idea what she's talking about, capes make the hero."

Darkwing, you're going to get caught in an AC fan.

I refuse to believe he hasn't before.
