A couple more photos are in my IG account: https://instagram.com/p/Bim4NZagDSv/ ... I’ve only bought the duck ones so far but I think I’d like to get the entire set.

There is also a Darkwing pin available as parks merchandise (also my photo):

And in case you’re not following the DuckTales reboot, DA fans may want to take note that the latest episode featured both Gizmoduck and Darkwing, and a preview reveals an upcoming episode will have an appearance from Don Karnage (which is no surprise, since Cape Suzette has been mentioned in the show, and another preview seemed to give us a glimpse of air pirates.

I was at a Disney Afternoon-themed showing at Gallery Nucleus a couple of months ago, and I was able to buy an amazing print by James Silvani (official Disney/Darkwing artist for the comics)!

There was a lot of really cool art ranging from Gummi Bears to Star vs. the Forces of Evil. Opening night drew quite the crowd with a line wrapping far around the building (we actually opted to go get a drink and then come back when it had died down a little, lol).

I’m still pretty amazed this has all been coming back! It’s been a pretty awesome time to be an old-school fan. :D

A book about the history of the Disney Afternoon titled "The Disney Afternoon: The Making of a Television Renaissance" is coming on October 15, 2019.
When the Disney Afternoon premiered in 1990, kids tossed their backpacks aside to watch their favorite Disney television characters. Unlike with feature films, these stars had a new adventure every weekday, and their audience journeyed with them on a daily basis. Throughout the '80s and '90s, Disney raised the bar with a lineup of innovative, high-quality television animation. The characters were endearing, the writing was clever, and the art was exceptional. Those who grew up with these characters have continued their love affairs for shows like Darkwing Duck, Gargoyles, TaleSpin, and the irrepressibly beloved DuckTales, deep into adulthood. For the first time, learn the history of the Disney Afternoon shows, read interviews from the creative teams, and revel in rare, behind-the-scenes artwork, plus get the full making of story of the modern-day DuckTales series and its legacy connections to the past.
