Yes! I'd love to see that keychain, he's one of my top turtle artists, a total favorite.

Nothing you ain't seen before. It's the Blimp picture with each turtle an individual charm...part of me wonders if it's for someone of the female persuasion.

I used to have a rubber Shredder keychain, but he broke, and I made him a fridge magnet. My parents still have him on the fridge.

IS IT SAD THAT UPON SEEING YOUR PICTURE I REALIZED I OWN THAT SAME KEYCHAIN SET & DIDN'T REALIZE IT EITHER?!?!

Goodness.

The fact that this somehow turned back into another TMNT thread gives me humorous satisfaction.

I have the first two Darkwing trades, but have only read the first so far. It was really good though! I hadn't heard the series' were actually being canceled though, that's a shame. I was holding out hope that they would transfer over to Marvel somehow. I'm gonna pick up the rest of the trades eventually or as they're released. I love me some Disney-Afternoon.

That's also a shame about the DuckTales book too. I'll check it out for myself when the trades release, but one of the main draws for me was that Warren Spector was on board as the writer. I have that 'Like a Hurricane' TPB which was the first thing I bought from Boom!. I don't really think it's that good. I was kind of bored by it.

I guess that's still a possibility. It just depends on what Disney wants to do with it. I think they were really surprised Darkwing sold as well as it did.

Also, Crisis on Infinite Darkwings is a MUST READ (right now!) for any fan of the TV series. Soooo much continuity comes to the forefront, and it even attempts to reconcile those seemingly contradictory account of DW's origins that appeared in the TV show from time to time. Even the "original Negaduck" that Megavolt created gets referenced!

I actually contemplated asking a mod to split the thread, to create a TMNT thread out of our diversion.

I read through it and It was pretty good. Very cool series. I notice a lot of nods to other disney and even non-disney properties. I'm sure I'd catch more of the easter eggs if I was more up to snuff on my Darkwing lore. I watched the show passively as a child, but I've bought and watched all of the first dvd set. I'm still looking forward to the Ducktales crossover though to end it all. It SHOULD be awesome. Ducktales and Talespin were my two favorite Disney Afternoon shows.

Even speaking as a pretty die-hard Darkwing fan back in the day, it's hard for me to recall all the references as well. I own the first two DVD sets, yet sadly many of the most important episodes of the series (and for the Boom comics, i.e, Paddywhacker's introduction) would have been included on later sets that never got released.

The grande finale "Dangerous Currency" arc is now at its halfway point, and it's looking bleak for our Duck heroes! Ducktales #5 was a fine issue to set the stage, but Darkwing Duck #17 really took me for a thrill ride with the return of:

Anybody else been reading it?

It's good to hear that

Spoiler:

showed up. I wanna read this series so bad now (As I'm watching the episodes of DuckTales and Darkwing that aren't on DVD ATM. Though I seem to have also added episodes I do have on DVD to the folder...must be a release date/production # issue...maybe.).

I'm working on the DW episodes now...I'll let ya know.

The episode where Fenton goes to St. Canard was "Tiff of the Titans," which I don't believe was on the DVD releases.

It's so frustrating that there are quite a few episodes that are key to really understanding the comic series' backstory that have yet to be available to own on DVD, like "Steerminator," "The Haunting of Mr. Banana Brain," "The Quiverwing Quack," and "Negaduck."

If only Disney would release them because of the comic...yeah like that's gonna happen.

Your right the episode is not on DVD, but was released on the VHS "Birth of Negaduck".

Here is a screencap from the episode

Hey, cool info! So that tape's got two of the series' "key" episodes on it (The "Negaduck" episode features an event referred to by Darkwing in the comic as "the incident with Megavolt, me, the Original Negaduck, and the Tronsplitter.)"

So the KaBoom! series actually references the 2 different Negaducks? Interesting.
