Darkwing Duck and Duck Dodgers

 

Doctor Doom faced off against Bugs Bunny in STF 4120, so it was only a matter of time before that envious Daffy had to take his own crack at the Lord of Latveria.  At least he had the good sense to bring along Darkwing Duck to help out.

  1. Wouldn't they be fighting Ducktor Doom??? From Spider ham ha ha.

  2. You can't see his face so there's no reason to believe it's NOT Ducktor Doom

  3. What Big Mike said. I can't help wondering, though, if even Ducktor Doom would be able to outwit Prof. Ludwig Von Drake?

    In either case, thanks for this great chuckle on a rainy Friday morning, Ross. :-)

  4. At the risk of sounding like Little Sir Echo, I have to agree with my three fellow reviewers. Maybe finding this particular image of Dr. Doom was just a lucky coincidence. But, deciding to use it, nonetheless, was inspired genius on your part!

    Now, if we could someday see the equally ingenious confrontation of Mantis (of Apokolips) vs. Mantis (mother of Sequoia)...?

    ;-D

  5. I, too, was on the presumption that this was Ducktor Doom.

    But personally I'd like to see Darkwing Duck with Captain Carrot, perhaps as a prelude to an anniversary issue featuring the Justice Ducks and the Zoo Crew.

  6. This is great Ross! The friction alone between Darkwing and Daffy would drive whichever Doom this is crazy, à la the classic "Wabbit Season-Duck Season" scene. Bring in Howard the Duck, and you've got Daffy Duck: Across the Duckverse. Then suddenly, every piece of equipment in Doom's lair would be labeled "Acme".

  7. Dear Bob: see STF #2987 ("copyright" 6/17/2020).

  8. Just got up from a nap, during which time I somehow thought of Spider-Ham and LEGO Batman.

  9. Duck Dodgers was always hilarious! I could imagine his dealings with Ducktor Doom! Not as familiar with Darkwing, but a team up with Howard the Duck seems a natural just for being unusual in their styles and humor! I do think a Duckverse comic team would be great, I think there were other ducks outside Disney and the familiar ones.
    Bob's mention of Spider-Ham makes me wonder if there are any heroes he could team with? I think he's only been seen a few times.
    Thanks for making me smile after a long day at work!

  10. @Paul Green: perhaps, Eggs (from the movie "Box Trolls")?

  11. I'd rather see Super Squirrel trying to rescue Squirrel Girl from the Superior Man=Spider!*

  12. after the day with comcast, i'm just going to.... duck the issues. Introduce them to the X-files. Dark wings and chicken wings. And without being "sauced".
    Victor meeting a duck version of himself?? that could be interesting... which way would he go first?

  13. Unless, of course, Howard employs the 41st century "quack fu" taught him by Magnus the Robot Fighter (who mistakes Louis' exo-skeletal armor for that of a cyborg).

  14. All this animal talk has me yearning for a reunion of Man-Bat and the Lizard (and this would be the season for it).

  15. I'd like to second Bob's request. And one premise that might make it possible? Make it the third part of a trilogy that started with STF #3080 and continued through STF #4194. With Mary Marvel, perhaps, initially mistaking Man-Bat for Jeepers (Mr. Mind's chiropteroid accomplice).

    X-Files? Don’t you mean the Eggs-Files?
