Episode 49: Dynamite’s Darkwing Duck Issue#1!

The day has finally arrived! Dynamite Entertainment’s Darkwing Duck comic series has begun, and we’ll be talking all about the very first issue! Does the dialogue and plot measure up to our standards? How do we feel about the art? And most importantly… how much Muddlefooting is present in these pages?! 

This episode is filled with SPOILERS. If you haven’t read Issue #1, we recommend you purchase a copy beforehand! Or don’t, and just live vicariously through Kitty’s reactions and Anj’s vague descriptions.

Episode 48: A Duck By Any Other Pants

Today is Tuskerninni’s day to shine on stage, because we’re gonna be talking all about the episode “A Duck By Any Other Name”. But before we abandon our pants in favor of Darkwing cosplay, we’ve got some LISTENER MAIL to share and discuss!

Also! Next episode we WILL be discussing Issue #1 of the Dynamite Darkwing Duck comic! Bushy-brow Darkwing will have to wait a little bit longer! Don’t forget to pick up your copy, because our comic review will contain spoilers!

Episode 47: (Angry Tim Curry Noises)

We’re walking ourselves backwards by diving into one of the later episodes in the series which sees the return of a major antagonist: Taurus Bulba! That’s right, today is all about The Steerminator! Wherein we learn about 90’s mobility devices and the ducks who use them!  

But first! Some comic news!… Sort of. This episode was recorded back in the yester-year of December 2022, so the news is a smidge outdated! As of right now, it is confirmed that Issue #1 of the Dynamite Darkwing Duck comics is dropping on January 25th! Be sure to check your local comic book shop OR order them digitally for kindle on Amazon!

Episode 46: The Cows Are Not What They Seem…

Sit down and help yourself to a slice of pie and a darn fine cup of coffee (or don’t, the cows warned us). Today we’re talking about one of the most bizarre episodes in Darkwing’s Duck’s 91-episode run… Twin Beaks! Kitty will be our tour guide on this weird and wonderful journey as she walks us through some Twin Peaks lore. Plus a bit of news about Dynamite’s Darkwing Duck comic series!

Episode 45: Fresh Air Makes Me…

Grab your camping gear because today we’re heading into the wilderness where the robotic bears roam and inflatable rafts are not to be trusted. Yes, you guessed it, we’re talking about “Bearskin Thug”, a delightful episode about a delightful father-daughter bonding experience. Oh, and terrorist organizations stuffing nukes into trees. You know, Just Darkwing Things. 

Also, as promised, the link to the youtube interview with Darkwing Duck comic writer Amanda Diebert!

Episode 44: Winky the Clown is Real and Cannot Be Stopped

Bonjour Boneheads! Today we’re putting on our orange jumpsuits and getting arrested in a bid to find Negaduck’s secret hideout! That’s right, this week’s episode is all about “Jail Bird”, in which Kitty learns the chilling truth that some characters are NOT just a figment of Anj’s twisted imagination. Negaduck be Negaducking in all of the best ways (DW and the Fearsome Four may disagree with this sentiment) and what episodes are left on our wheel?? Tune in to find out!

We’re tossing all our cool spy gadgets out the window as we talk about the DWD 91 episode “In Like Blunt”! BUT FIRST, Anj talks about the new Art of Ducktales book which has finally been released! We also learn just how bad we are at remembering Launchpad exists. Maybe SHUSH wiped our memories…

Episode 40: The Jazz Ensemble Mystery We Never Got

Our 40th episode already?! How time flies (like a zeppelin carrying two unsupervised children). Today we’re flying over critical thinking territory as we talk about the episode “Dances With Bigfoot” which… well, you’ll see. This is another from our ‘Let’s Get Problematic’ category. Get ready to side-wind into booby trap and volcano sacrifice tropes! And also a world where children can take flying lessons at no cost (other than their lives).
