DARKWING DUCK follows the adventures of Drake Mallard (voiced by Jim Cummings), a mild-mannered duck from the suburbs, who by night dons his cloak and mask to become vigilante hero Darkwing Duck. Darkwing is joined by his not-so-trusty sidekick, Launchpad McQuack (Terence McGovern), to fight various villains and crimes in his town of St. Canard. Darkwing must balance his superhero life with his life as a father to his daughter, Gosalyn (Christine Cavanaugh), while also dealing with their annoying next-door neighbors, the Muddlefoot family. The series sometimes features characters from the popular Disney series DuckTales.
