A TREASURY OF THE TERROR THAT FLAPS IN THE NIGHT! In 1991, the original animated adventures of Darkwing Duck debuted on THE DISNEY AFTERNOON and ABC. Over the next two years, 91 episodes were aired, and the critically acclaimed series won a legion of die-hard fans while becoming a cultural touchstone for a generation.

Now, over 30 years later, Dynamite is proud to add to the legacy of the Duck Knight by bringing these timeless tales back into print in an all-new omnibus edition! Reprinted here for the first time in a single volume are all of the Guardian of St. Canard’s comic book adventures from the original DARKWING DUCK miniseries and THE DISNEY AFTERNOON #1-10. This comprehensive hardcover collection also features a complete cover gallery from the original publications!

DEMONA WILL MAKE SURE THIS CAGED DUCK SINGS! The creators of the original Gargoyles and Darkwing Duck animated series return for the second installment of their hotly anticipated comics crossover adventure! With Darkwing’s magical amour Morgana Macawber now in Demona’s clutches, it’s a race against time for the Terror That Flaps in the Night to locate the two sorceresses before Morgana is coerced into revealing the location of the sinister spell book known as the Quackronomicon — and thus handing Demona the keys to world domination! But DW won’t get far without Elisa and Goliath’s help — and the head of the Manhattan Clan is down for the count until sunset. With half a day of downtime to contend with, can this unlikely trio of heroes crack the case before Morgana cracks under Demona’s interrogation? And while we’re on the subject, what have Launchpad and Gosalyn been doing all this time? The answers to these and many more burning questions will be revealed in the portent-filled pages of Gargoyles/Darkwing Duck #2 — crafted by tandem authors GREG WEISMAN and TAD STONES and artist CIRO CANGIALOSI, and enriched by hand-carved covers from STONES, CANGIALOSI, CLAYTON HENRY, and IVAN BIGARELLA!

JUSTICE KNOWS NO BOUNDARIES! Worlds collide as two of the most beloved entries in the legendary Disney Afternoon lineup of animated shows meet for the first time ever in a brand-new title crafted by both series’ original authors!
Gargoyles creator GREG WEISMAN and Darkwing Duck creator TAD STONES join forces with acclaimed artist CIRO CANGIALOSI to bring the Defenders of St. Canard and the Manhattan Clan together for an adventure so epic that no single continuity could contain it! After contacting a wary Morgana Macawber through her magic mirror, the scheming Demona whisks the uncooperative sorceress out of St. Canard and into her New York City lair, where she proceeds to grill Morgana for the location of a certain mystical tome with enough eldritch energy to allow Demona to finally conquer the world. Darkwing Duck, of course, isn’t about to take this lying down. As soon as he learns about Morgana’s abduction, DW and his stalwart sidekick Launchpad McQuack are in the air, racing towards the Big Apple to rescue his avian amour. But will the Terror That Flaps in the Night be able to handle the City That Never Sleeps — not to mention the stone guardians who protect it? Find out in the action-packed first issue of GARGOYLES/DARKWING DUCK, featuring tantalizingly transformative covers by STONES, CANGIALOSI, DECLAN SHALVEY, and IVAN BIGARELLA — as well as an exclusive BLIND BAG VARIANT!

Dynamite Entertainment has announced a brand-new Disney cartoon and comics crossover! The two franchises at the foundation of Dynamite’s new era of Disney comics collide in Gargoyles/Darkwing Duck starting January 2026 — heightened even more by the ultimate creative team! The series will be written by Greg Weisman and Tad Stones with art by Ciro Cangialosi and lettering by Fabio Amelia.
“I am the Terror That Flaps in the Night!” “We are the Defenders of the Night!” “I am Darkwing Duck!” “We are Gargoyles!”
In the 1990s, the beloved Disney Afternoon TV programming block inspired a legion of fans, and continues to do so for further generations to this day. Two shows stood out from the pack with their superhero genre inspired ethos, portraying powerful heroes protecting their cities from evildoers of all kinds. With fan-favorite characters and expansive lore, Gargoyles and Darkwing Duck had an indelible impact on audiences. Now the principal creators behind both mythos are coming together for an unprecedented comic book event!
When the diabolical Demona uses a mysterious magic mirror to recruit Morgana Macawber to her cause of mass destruction, Darkwing Duck and Launchpad McQuack flap their wings — actually they board the Thunderquack — over to Manhattan. They’ll quickly cross paths with Goliath and Elisa. It might be time for a classic hero versus hero misunderstanding brawl, and so much more will follow!
Greg Weisman is a revered writer and producer behind several hit animated series, as well as a long legacy in comics, with Gargoyles being his magnum opus across both mediums. Since 2022 he has been continuously chronicling new tales of his stone guardians with Dynamite, with comics picking up right where he left things. He’s continued to flesh out the arcs of his deep bench of characters, and now in this series will have a whole new set of relationships to work his magic on.
The talented Tad Stones is no rookie either, with nearly three decades working directly under the Disney umbrella. He played a key role in developing other Disney Afternoon staples like Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers and the follow up series for Aladdin and Hercules. His most iconic creation is the one and only Drake Mallard, known to his St. Canard criminal foes as Darkwing Duck. He’s recently returned as well, with a series of stunning covers on the latest series by creators Daniel Kibblesmith, Ted Brandt, and Ro Stein. This titanic team-up with Weisman will mark his first time writing Darkwing in 15 years!
The colossal co-writing tandem of Greg Weisman and Tad Stones will be ably assisted in this historic epic by the Disney comics veteran virtuoso Ciro Cangialosi. No stranger to these characters, such as illustrating Dynamite’s spotlight on Negaduck, this will be his first chance to flex his skills on the Manhattan Clan. Letterer Fabio Amelia rounds out the core team.
The worlds of Gargoyles and Darkwing Duck colliding is a can’t-miss chapter in comics, and to mark the occasion editor Nate Cosby has assembled an all-star team of top names for covers. Italian master Ivan Bigarella delighted fans on DuckTales, and will here as well. Clayton Henry‘s mastery of superheroic artwork fits these unique heroes well. Recent Dynamite superstar Declan Shalvey dishes up a delightful addition. Then both Tad Stones himself and Ciro Cangialosi pull double beyond the interior pages with covers.
