Dynamite Reveals Darkwing Duck Collection Preview, Creator Teases New Series (Exclusive)

Dynamite Entertainment's Darkwing Duck comics have allowed fans to jump back into the world of the hit animated series with new adventures with books like Darkwing Duck, Justice Ducks, and Negaduck. Now Dynamite is offering fans a chance to get those new stories and Darkwing's classic comic adventures in one place with the Darkwing Duck Graphic Novels Collection. The campaign is currently live on Kickstarter and is ending soon, so if you haven't jumped in yet you've still got time. If you're on the fence, we've got an exclusive preview of the collection on the next slide, but we also have something from Darkwing Duck creator Tad Stones that longtime fans will find very interesting , with Stones revealing that he wanted to do more with the series outside of its initial run and that the team behind Disney's 2017 DuckTales series created a full pitch for the character.

Stones told ComicBook that he would have loved to do more with the character in the original series, but the 65-episode order was where things were capped. That said, Ducktales 2017 showrunners Frank Angones and Matt Youngberg were interested in doing more with the character and created a whole pitch. Stones said, "The initial 65-episode order was the business plan. Creatively, I would've liked to do more but that wasn't a thing at the time. The guys on DuckTales 2017 were definitely interested and created a whole pitch. Disney is developing him into a new show right now but I don't have any details."

The duo would eventually get to work with the character as part of Ducktales season 3, but the show ended after that season, so no further appearances had the chance to happen. That said, Stones does mention the character is developing something new with Darkwing Duck, but there aren't any details on that at the moment. That can only be good news, as perhaps fans are in for a new series in the near future.

We'll have to wait and see, but in the meantime, you can add the Darkwing Duck Graphic Novels to your collection. If you do, you are going to be getting something special, as each of these Graphic Novels will feature limited print runs and the hardcover editions will also be oversized at 9x12". You can find the full description for each of the collections below.
