Darkwing Duck Returns To DuckTales Next Week

He is the terror that flaps in the night. He is the sneeze on your enchilada! He is the soft brown doggie deposit that befouls the golf course of crime! He is DARKWING DUCK! And he’s coming back to TV….sort of. As viewers of Disney Channel and Disney XD’s 2017 DuckTales series know, the show has pulled in all sorts of characters from The Disney Afternoon’s first few years of existence, but with Darkwing Duck…it gets complicated. Darkwing was introduced to this version of Duckburg as a fictitious character with his own popular TV show the nephews happened to be obsessed with. He was played by actor Jim Starling (who in reality was original Darkwing VA Jim Cummings), a man who got a little too obsessed with his role. When he found his job threatened by another actor (this one named Drake Mallard), he became so agitated that he flipped from Darkwing into…Negaduck! Launchpad, the biggest Darkwing fan in the world, insisted Drake had what it took to become a

Years before the DuckTales TV series got a legitimate remake, a recreation of the NES game based on it came out for PC, Playstation 3 and Wii U. DuckTales Remastered earned critical praise for its faithful handling of the 1987 series. At the time, all the original voice actors were alive — Alan Young and June Foray were still able, in their 90s, to voice the characters of Scrooge and Magica. Now we have a new DuckTales series, with a new cast…how about a new game? That’s what dev studio FDG Entertainment was thinking. Early this morning they tweeted out images from what appeared to be a remake of Donald Duck’s Quackshot for the Sega Genesis, only reborn as a DuckTales game using the new designs. Surprise! We’re happy to announce our new game project #DuckTales QuackShots together with our #MonsterBoyGame development partner Game Atelier! pic.twitter.com/iQfmnwLcPH — FDG Entertainment (@FDG_Games) April 1, 2020 Some people were instantly excited, but others noted the date on the calendar. Eventually, FDG came clean:

SDCC 2019: DuckTales Confirms More Disney Afternoon Characters

SDCC 2019: DuckTales Confirms More Disney Afternoon Characters

Someone on my Twitter feed commented that the new DuckTales is fast becoming the Smash Bros of TV cartoons, and it’s hard to argue. EW.com published a new promotional image for Seasons 2 and 3 that confirms a lot of “new” characters are on the way, though if you remember watching the Disney Afternoon, you’ve seen them before. C-C-C-CHIP ‘N DALE and the RESCUE RANGERS are on their way to DuckTales, and it’s about time! We don’t know what Gadget, Monterey Jack or Zipper will look like, but here are the two main stars, and they translate to the modern DuckTales art style surprisingly well. Now there’s just the matter of scale….cats and ducks tower over these guys. Daisy Duck, Donald’s girlfriend, has surprisingly NEVER appeared on ANY version of DuckTales (she was on Quack Pack, but that doesn’t count). What role will she play in the larger plot? Goofy knows Donald in more than one continuity, but this time he’s wearing his Goof Troop outfit, which could mean we

DuckTales Officially Renewed For Season 3

DuckTales Officially Renewed For Season 3

The original DuckTales aired in the earliest days of Disney Channel, and marked a new age of animated cartoons. So much so that the theme song and show are still marked as classics to this day. Then, in 2017, they decided to reboot the franchise and give it a new spin with new voice actors, a more modern visual style, and more. And from the word “Woo-Hoo!” the show was a hit. Season 01 only ended recently, but Season 02 is launching next month! And now, Disney has revealed that no matter what happens, we are getting a third season of DuckTales, and it will air in 2019! Which means that much like the gap between 01 and 02, we won’t have to wait that long for the new episodes to roll out. To help commemorate the announcement, Disney released a “booth video” showing off the four main stars of the show (the voices behind Huey, Duey, and Louie and Scrooge McDuck) in a voice acting session. Naturally, DuckTales shenanigans ensue.

DuckTales (Woo-hoo!) is coming back to the world in a big way. A prequel coming already started the fun, and now, the series itself will return on Disney XD August 12th. This i s a complete reboot of the original classic series, and will feature an all-new cast, including legendary actor David Tennant as Scrooge McDuck. Now, to start of the fun in a way only the DuckTales show can do, on the premiere day, the show will kick off with two episodes put back to back…and then played every hour all day long. Woo-hoo! “The movie is really a two-part kick-off series premiere,” DuckTales executive producer Matt Youngberg told ComicBookResources, “That’s where we have the introduction on what’s happening with the family. There’s been a history. There’s been a reason that Donald and Scrooge don’t talk to each other. And we come into it with the boys experiencing their first adventure with Scrooge McDuck. We wanted to be able to kick off the series with how everything comes together, so as

The upcoming Ducktales revival is something that fans old and new have been wanting for a long time. But, with its revival comes questions about what other classic Disney shows could return. One of the biggest requests by far is the originals “sister show” Darkwing Duck. Both shows used the character called Launchpad McQuack, but, both were confirmed to be separate universes…until San Diego Comic Con that is. Because, for the first time ever, Darkwing Duck will appear in the universe alongside Scrooge McDuck, Donald, Huey, Duey, and Louie, and the rest. Now, it wasn’t made clear when in the first season he will appear, but he IS coming. And, he’ll have his adopted daughter Gosalyn with him. So, say it with me kids, “Let’s get dangerous!”

Rip Taylor is a very unique performer. With his rapid wit, quickfire puns and bursts of confetti, he’s been the Clown Prince Of Pandemonium for more than half-a-century. In the 90s, I saw him in a variety of projects ranging from Ducktales The Movie and Wayne’s World 2 on the big screen to Amazon Women On The Moon on VHS. Always an enjoyable talent, I was able to speak to Mr. Taylor on February 27th. I hope you all enjoy this interview. Say hello to Rip Taylor! Rip: Hello. Johnny: Hello, Mr. Taylor. This is Johnny Caps of Pop Geeks, calling for the interview. Rip: Hiya, pal. Johnny: Hello. Thank you for taking the time out of your schedule to speak to me. Rip: Where are you? Johnny: I’m based in New York. Rip: Oh, really? How’s the weather there? Johnny: The weather’s been kind of schizophrenic these past few weeks over here, with snow, then heat. You never know what it’s going to be next. Rip: Yeah. Johnny: I

DuckTales Voice Cast Revealed: David Tennant, Danny Pudi And More

DuckTales Voice Cast Revealed: David Tennant, Danny Pudi And More

For the past two years Disney’s TV animation department has been working on a 21st century revival of their classic syndicated series DuckTales. Most of the original voice cast that gave life to the characters in the 1980’s don’t work anymore; some, like Alan Young (the voice of Scrooge) have already passed. Who could possibly fill their shoes? Today Disney released a video revealing the full voice cast, and they’ve clearly given it their best shot. Some talented and respected people are on this list: David Tennant of Doctor Who and Jessica Jones fame is taking the role of Scrooge McDuck, and by the way, he actually is Scottish (although Young had ancestry from the region, he was not raised there). Scrooge’s grandnephews, Huey, Dewey, and Louie, will be voiced by Danny Pudi, Ben Schwartz, and Bobby Moynihan respectively. Another SNL alum, Beck Bennett, will take to the skies as Launchpad McQuack, while Kate Micucci (Garfunkel and Oates) will transfer her cuteness into Webby Vanderquack and someone named Toks Olagundoye
