Oh, yeah, the "Crisis on Infinite Darkwings" arc tries hard to reconcile some of the weird continuity contradictions concerning the various Darkwing origin stories as well.

I didn't notice any. That particular arc in the comic features oodles of variations on Darkwing, with only
Spoiler:
Quiverwing Duck and Darkwarrior Duck
getting sustained moments of character development.

I can never get enough of the Darkwing Duck comics! They didn't skimp out on the quality and the plots just hook you in!
I had been wandering when they'd do a Ducktales/Darkwing crossover every since they had the issue where Magica teamed up with Negaduck! When I went to the comic book store and saw they finally had they long awaited team up, I nearly bolted to the store's counter to buy it so I could beginning reading.

Darkwarrior makes sense, since he is a alternate reality (mirror) DW, but Quiverwing Quack was a PR stunt gone wrong...unless he stayed QQ in an alternate reality.

EDIT: Wait...forgot...QQ is Goz's alter ego....my bad. What was the softer gentler DW called?

Are you talking about Darkwing from the episode "Lets Get Respectable". Than he was still called Darkwing Duck.

I could be wrong, but I think that "respectable" version of Darkwing was lampooned on Issue #9's "Cover A."
http://coa.inducks.org/issue.php?c=us/DARB+9A

The opening scene involves DW meeting with a PR agency to help better his public image after the fiasco of the Infinite Darkwings sullied his reputation.

Watching Steerminator as I type...surprisingly dark for a Darkwing episode.

"Darkly Dawns the Duck" stood out as such a different show than every other episode in the series. It was nice when "Steerminator" came along near the end of the series and brought some of those foundational themes back to the forefront.

I'm happy to say that I finally got to complete my Darkwing collection this holiday season in acquiring the "Duck Knight Returns" and "Campaign Carnage" TPBs.

Also, I received both Rescue Rangers TPBs for Christmas. I highly recommend those books, although I can't help but think that Ian Brill was heavily influenced by the legendary RR fan-comic, "Of Mice and Mayhem." I am really disappointed they ceased production on RR early to focus on the relaunch of Ducktales (which was a poor run from what I've been able to read).

Here are some cool previews of some of the TPBs:
