Fun fact: Darkwing's " I am the ..." speeches weren't written in the script for the show. Instead there was a small note saying: "It doesn't matter what I write here, Jim's going to make something funnier up."

"Do you think he has like...a book full of these phrases that he writes down, and then has to cross off whenever he uses them?" It's Darkwing. I wouldn't put it past him, to be completely honest. xD;

“Disney does not own my childhood.” Give them a few years, they’ll buy it Linkara.

Scrooge McDuck: "The next Pokemon protagonist is going to be Scottish!!" That explains WAAAAY too much.

New AT4W t-shirt design "Disney does not own my childhood"

He's the terror that flaps in the night. He's the 90s cartoon in desperate need of a revival (Besides his guest appearance in the new Ducktales). He's Darkwing Duck!

"The next Pokémon protagonist will be Scottish!"

Jim Cummings would be very proud of you Lewis voicing DW.

More duck then hero, but more hero then Crazy Steve.

I can't believe we have Scrooge McDuck to thank for the Galar Region.

I was waiting for Negaduck to mention that he's from the Negaverse. An excellent opportunity to make a Sailor Moon joke.

"Still better than their old Slogan: We Own your ass, Deal with it!" God I love that line!🤣

23:51 Okay, that page right there? That's the purest essence of Darkwing to me. Throughout all the slapstick, despite all the ego, when it comes right down to the wire he's a true hero.

Months on Tony Bennet and only one week on Sinatra? That's like months on Liefield and a week on Jack Kirby.

he is the man who reads bad comics, he is the man who defeated a god from a videogame he is the man who says "I am a man!" HE IS LINKARA!

He is the GODAMN BATMAN who is nothing but death and crime to all! He is the Adamantium Rage of BEE'S, My God!! He is A MAN for comic publishers to fear!! HE....IS.......LINKARA THE COMIC BOOK CRUSADER!!!!!

So...does that mean Linkara could be considered a Disney princess?

I cannot recommend Don Rosa's The Life and Times if Scrooge McDuck highly enough. Lots of action and adventure, plus it's funny.

@14:41-14:51 Linkara: Harvey? Harvey(Off Screen): that school is for hacks and I never trust anybody with a degree from it; they spends MONTHS on tony bennett but ONE week on sinatra. Linkara: Fair Enough.

As the racoon once said, "Oh. *Yeah."*

Darkwing Duck is an amazing disney show. One of my personal favorites.

Game Freak: Hey that Scottish Protagonist thing is a good idea

3 video glitches in the first 3 minutes... VICE WAS RIGHT!!! THE ENTITY'S STILL ALIVE!!!

"I've never read them" Someone send Linkara a copy of The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck

Linkara, Lewis, between you, Diamanda Hagan, Sfdebris, Bennet the Sage, and Lindsy Ellis, you have all been the most attentive and wonderfully reliable entertainers in the nerdiverse. Other funny people came and went, other smart people started and stopped, other caring people stopped caring, but you are one of the greats.

Am I the only one who thought the whole shadowy evil corporation would be more of a F.O.W.L plot

How is it even possible to NOT have the Duck Tales theme permanently imprinted in your brain! Heh I'm pretty sure if you open my skull, somewhere in my brain, you will find the lyrics physically carved in there.

That is a really good impression of Darkwing.

24:50 So that's how we got our Scottish Lass!

$600-$1,000 for the omnibus?!? Damn, I got it a few years back on the cheap. I lucked out big time.

"So where did the organic bits for Bulba's new body come from?" Food residue left in the blender, obviously.

Bulbas bull, was definitely a pants to be darkened type a villain. I mean the entire tv series both started and ended with him both times before and then after he became a cyborg he was one of those legitimate threats like Negaduck.

I recommend reading the English translated Duck Avenger comics that was released by IDW, which was a 90s Italian Disney comic book that has Donald Duck as a superhero that comic series is awesome unfortunately IDW didn't translate the entire run luckily some fan translated the entire run before IDW acquired the rights.

The Borg being Founders seems to indicate they are expanding their Dominion...

19:11 Huh, Megavolt mildly swore by saying "crappy". Yep this was definately 2010, when Adventure Time started airing and almost every CN show had said mild cursing.

now linkara needs to review the Duck Avengers comics, maybe the first 4 or 5 issues

1:13 A.) How did the DuckTales theme not in your head B.) Nostalgia critic is probably jealous.

Hearing what you had to say about the omnibus's prices makes me glad I got my copy back when it was brand new.

This is an underrated show.

Steerminator...that...that is a FANTASTIC name. Also he was voiced by Tim Curry which automatically makes him best villain 24:51 The memes made with her are exquisite Negaduck and Magica joining forces?...My god

"Screw you, rehabilitation! Just shove 'em in cells!" Interesting, that. The second Scrooge takes over, and he more or less reverts to his Dickensian roots. "Mr. McDuck! We've captured this dangerous criminal. What should be done with him?" "Are there no prisons? Are there no workhouses?"

18:03 I like that little line after Launchpad mentions Darkwing getting second; "That was... a disappointment." Not denying it, not incredulity for thinking something so silly was the reason he retired -- no, it really *was* a soft spot for him, just not the one that made him hang up the hat.

“In reality its drugs.” Great joke.

When there’s trouble you can call DW! Let’s get dangerous!

Yay! I've been waiting for a while to review this one! Darkwing Duck is dope! Boy, I can't wait to- (hears the part where Linkara says he's not a Disney fan) ...And now I'm sad. (hears the part where he admits to being a fan of Darkwing and having already read these books) And now I'm emotionally confused! Either way, LET'S GET DANGEROUS!

I never knew I needed Linkara talking about Disney characters but I’m glad I got it.

If someone make a Darkwing Linkara t-shirt I sure damn will buy that shirt!

"Disney does not own my childhood" Somewhere, the South Park version of Mickey Mouse is cussing up a storm

I am the commenter that leaves obnoxious spam, I am a copyright bot from a particularly litigious company, I AM DARKWING DUCK!

When there's trouble you call DW! And when there's a bad comic you call Linkara!

The comic predicated the future of copyright

You are the best Linkara!!!!!! Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽

Have you seen the new "Ducktales," Linkara? Darkwing is shown in a cameo on a tv screen being watched by Huey.

I am very happy to say I already own the trade collecting these four issues. So worth the money.

I do wish Erod had been in on this but still very good episode

So Quackwerks was basically like OCP from original Robocop movies. Owning city and making every product possible.

The comic from 2010 is The Duck Knight Returns. The in the second season of the the 2017 Ducktales series there’s an episode called the Duck Knight Returns. In it Jim Cummings plays a parody character of himself obsessed with his role as Darkwing Duck as it got passed to a new Drake Mallard

9:00 - 9:20 was a golden missed opportunity to use the "Oh my god, so many stairs!" clip from Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged.

Could not agree more with your Mighty Max comment!

I freaking love Darkwing Duck. I’m so happy you reviewed these comics. This is already my favorite episode of AT4W

18:58-19:07 True enough, but it's likely that Gadget also knows how well Launchpad flies and that she's gonna have to fix it every time they wanna fly anywhere.

Let's get dangerous, ...unless we can't afford it.

Fun fact: Donald Duck *also* has a superhero career in comics as Paperinik/The Duck Avenger. In fact, there's conjecture that the reason that Darkwing was created was that Tony Anselmo was just starting his run as Donald they were trying to ease him into the role (which is why Donald was rarely on in the 87 Ducktales)

Disney was a big part of MY childhood. The original Cinderella was the very first Disney movie I remember watching, The Little Mermaid was the first movie I remember seeing in theaters at the time, The original Lion King was the first movie I've seen more than once in theaters, and I had the chance to go to Disney World with the rest of the high school marching band during my freshman year (it is a 4 year tradition). *Tobe Fair* , I didn't really stick that well with the Disney Afternoon, except for DuckTales, Goof Troop, Gargoyles, Timon & Pumbaa, and of course Darkwing Duck; and that's mostly because Fox Kids and Kids WB had shows that appealed more to me. 6:57- And somewhere in the city, Chandler Quack is trapped in an ATM vestibule with Jill Goodacre. 10:19- In other words, Quackwerks is like Trump's vision of the Trump Organization of the future. ...We are so screwed. 14:16- Or, speaking of Star Trek, since Darkwing Duck is looking for "The Founder," the creator could also be the Dominion. The scene in the robot factory reminds me of a certain similar scene in Attack of the Clones. 24:54- YOU MONSTER! 27:46- Or the elevator got broke thanks to Sheldon and Leonard from The Big Bang Theory.

Probably the best bit from this comic's run has to be the tie-in to Tiny Toons - Steelbeak was revealed to be Fowlmouth all grown up in the third set (according to the wiki page), as he woke up from being frozen saying: "Ma? That you? I will watch my language... Buster told me to."

As a fan who grew up with this series and as someone who followed closely to the new comic series when it came out along with being part of a forum who actually got a few clarifications by someone who worked hard to revive this series in comic form, Aaron Sparrow (to be precise) He was removed from the credits of the opening 4 part story arc. Ian Brill cannot write for Darkwing Duck and misses the point of what made the show great. While he wanted to send epic mega adventure one after the other, he ignored one of the biggest things that made Darkwing Unique: _"Super powers do not a hero make" - Darkwing Duck._ He threw Darkwing up against things like Cthulhu, multiple dimensions where several different Darkwings wreaked havoc, (actually that would have been good, but then on part 4 they went too damn far by throwing in Paddy Whack and had him say to Negaduck "There is much fear in you." - which is bull, because Negaduck doesn't fear that clown, nor anything Darkwing has thrown at him. We NEVER see Negaduck grovel. If someone says, "Look! it's a Fuzzy Wuzzy bunny!" He would pull out a shotgun and start firing blindly to kill it. (That is NOT an exaggeration see episode "Just Us Justice Ducks" part 1) Brill would try to cram so much into something that should be fun and simple. Bulba coming back was awesome, but that's about it. The Ducktales cross over was a mess too. Even at the end. Negaduck merges with EVERY VILLAIN! and then what does defeat him? Not an epic battle. Darkwing just tells him. "You don't let yourself have any friends!" WTF was that?! Negaduck doesn't care about that. He doesn't need it. He rules with brute force, cunning schemes and fear. Also the comic relied too much on magic. Having Morgana in it was great, but it was always magic that would solve the problems, not Darkwing's insane dumb luck or clever wit. It was a mess. The only thing good about it aside from the first arc was seeing the brief return of Darkwarrior Duck, (which was awesome and needed to be longer imo) and the introduction of Quiverwing Duck, who was like Darkwarrior, but went down a more sane, reasonable route, and he reminded me of Hawkeye a bit. The other thing that was great about the comic was the art. James Silvani is an amazing artist and captures them all perfectly. Sabrine also did great work in the special edition which featured Quackerjack and a Time traveling turtle. James' easter eggs were always fun to point out, and it made up for some of the crappy writing. BOOM! Studios could not handle the Darkwing Duck comic properly. And the episode "Comic Book Capers" is a great comparison to what happened with this comic series as a whole. Long comment, I know, but It gives a decent insight into what happened, where it missed, where is worked and that we deserved better, which a reboot series did happen, and it was a lot better. Aaron Sparrow and James Silvani work together brilliantly. THEY can handle a proper DWD reboot.

After long say of work, it's good to see this after a tiring Monday.

THANK YOU! I was eagerly waiting for this episode all week after last week's hint. I never got further than the third storyline in the Boom run due to financial issues and my library system not having the subsequent omnibuses.

He’s gonna end up in a dangerous comic book, Well we can handle it, LET’S GET DANGEROUS!

You really might wanna take a look at the Paperinik comics :D

He is the terror that flaps in the night. He is the gum on your shoe that is impossible to get rid of no matter how hard you try. He is… DARKWING DUCK!

My childhood? Beast Wars and Digimon every weekday after school. That's what stuck with me, and I wouldn't change it for anything.

Lets get dangerous!! holy feathers flyin! Batman!! ;3 oooh next on LInkara, CA Raisin's IN 3D!! hmmm heard it through the grapevine..

WOW! Thank god I bought the omnibus off amazon when it first came out! Anyway, great review as always Lewis!

16:43 I do so love it when kids shows find a way to sneak in adult jokes

Your Darkwing voice is spot on!!! Loved this video

25:13 Actually, that makes perfect sense. Scrooge knows Launch Pad as a brave piolet who was present during what just took place. Man, why am I such a sucker for Darkwing and Ducktales meeting?

oh my god Linkara made me remember the Mighty Max cartoon. And also how it 'ended'

I loved watching Darkwing Duck everyday it came on such a great series. Glad to see someone made a awesome comic series based on it.

You made my day dude. Seriously

Glad this was uploaded on my birthday

It's kind of cool to see another "yeah, Disney's alright I guess" kid. I was more of a Fox Kids/Nickelodeon kid, too.

17:32 Wait, isn’t Nega Duck the Darkwing Duck from another universe? Shouldn’t he know who Darkwing Duck is already by virtue of... Well, being Darkwing’s counterpart?

Holy crap! The Disney Afternoon was a shared universe!

I am the terror that flaps in the night! I am the loan that puts you out of business! I am darkwing duck!

Am I the only one who remembers the Flamingos from "Fantasia 2000?"

Don rosa mentioned on this show, finally! Now I really want Linkara to review life and times of scrooge mcduck.. :D

This is a Disney review, better read this now before it is gone.

Darkwing Duck and the whole Disney Afternoon were way before my time. I was born in ‘97, so I grew up in the 2000s. I caught reruns of some shows on Jetix (before it was rebranded Disney XD), but Darkwing Duck just wasn’t one of them. Even so, this storyline was incredibly enjoyable to learn about through your review, Lewis, and while I can’t say I’ll go out looking for these issues or start watching the original cartoon anytime soon, my interest is definitely peaked and I’m sure I’ll be looking more into this franchise on my own in the future.

Oddly enough the Ducktales reboot used that title again when they introduced Darkwing in that series.

I friggin luv u. Darkwing duck is my fav show of all time.

Let’s get dangerous... by watching a comic review for over half an hour!

Finally, a Patreon episode about something I'm actually interested in. If people are going to bizarrely keep insisting Linkara read non-sucky comics, at least those comics can be about Darkwing Duck.

I gotta say that's actually a really solid Darkwing voice you've got there

Nice to see you tackle this book, Lewis. I think its be cool if you looked at more Disney stuff, like the Don Rosa Scrooge comics

This was epic. Now I actually want to see you do a review of the issues where Nega Duck and Magica DeSpell team up.

28:07 It's my headcanon that those subways are defended by the PR equivalent of ToQGer... if it ever comes to fruition, of course.

DARKWING DUCK 2...1...Risiko! sorry nostalgia took over great episode as always~

Eat it BoJack! Darkwing Duck beat you to the punch with the evil monopoly corporation talk!

12:42 Does...Does Linkara collect Marvel Legends? Also love that reference~
