2 min read
On this Darkwing Duck podcast: the cancelled 16-bit game, the NES classic, the comics, the cartoon, and the terror that flaps in the night.

 

Two experts meet in St. Canard for this Darkwing Duck podcast: Nicole (@RedAuxPDX) and Ryan (@Retrogamebrews) discuss with me the terror that flaps in the 8-bit night! We’ll unpack Darkwing’s origins and inspirations, Disney+ and the full 91 episodes, RedAux’s cosplay and meeting the creators, 2017 DuckTales, remembering the beloved cartoon, the heart of the show, its characters and villains and our favorite episodes, ranking cartoon theme songs, the TurboGrafx-16 game, the tragically canceled sequel, the mobile game, Capcom and Mega Man, the hanging mechanic, late NES games, licensed games and their many woes, and the Disney afternoon multiverse.
