History Fridge / DarkwingDuck

* Splatter Phoenix has the ability to bring paintings to life. When she dies, she melts like the other paintings. Maybe this isn't the real Splatter Phoenix, and the original was actually murdered by the painting of herself and she took her place.

*** Also, the same could apply to the Justice Ducks, with Megavolt being Gizmoduck ({{Gadgeteer Genius}}es), Bushroot being Stegmutt (products of experiments gone wrong), and Quackerjack being Neptunia (defenders of toys/sea beasts)

*** There are some implications that the justice system in that universe [[BlackComedy applies the chair willy nilly]].

* Furthermore, the appearance of Darkwarrior in [[ComicBook/DarkwingDuck the comics]] proves that that world did not get fixed when Gosalyn got back to the present. What do you suppose happened when Darkwarrior woke up from being knocked out and discovered Gosalyn was gone again?

* Doctor Slug is Public Enemy Number 1, in front of negaduck, since we've never seen him as any form of recurring villain, who knows what horrible things he has done to be able to surpass negaduck in criminality?

* The Brainteasers love to eat metal or rather ''[[BodySnatcher force their hosts]] to eat metal''. All the metal in their bodies will poison and kill them, and that's assuming that the host didn't puncture his/her stomach by eating nails or something.

*** There are some implications that the justice system in that universe [[DeadBabyComedy applies the chair willy nilly]].

*** Also (though your area's laws may vary) in many states the insane or retarded cannot receive the death penalty. Megavolt's memory lapses certainly qualify as impairment. [[BlessedWithSuck His power over electricity may slowly be killing him.]]

* It is implied in one episode that Tank Muddlefoot cut off his grandfather's leg when he was an infant. Considering how often he picks on his brother Honker without being reprimanded by his parents, one must wonder what other despicable things Tank might have gotten away with.

* Also about "Time and Punishment", after Gosalyn disappears, Darkwing lapses into catatonia, becoming completely unresponsive and only "doing" anything when Launchpad physically manipulates him. If Launchpad hadn't been there, would Darkwing have died of self-inflicted dehydration and starvation? (Of course, [[HeWhoFightsMonsters given what happened]], some people might say that would have been the better option...)

* The members of the Fearsome Five are all foils to Darkwing and his main family/team.
** Negaduck=Darkwing (Duh)
** Megavolt=Honker (genius, scientist, socially awkward geeks prior to heroic deeds, somewhat down-to-earth, often works with…)
** Quackerjack=Gosalyn (energetic, practical jokers, childish mentality, have names starting with Q as Quiverwing Quack, like playing games)
** Bushroot=Launchpad (the Woobie, generally defensive rather than offensive, nice guys on both teams)
** Liquidator=Morgana (corrupt businessman/woman, extremely powerful, became good/evil because of Darkwing)
*** Also, the same could apply to the Justice Ducks, with Megavolt being Gizmoduck (Gadgeteer Geniuses), Bushroot being Steggmutt (products of experiments gone wrong), and Quackerjack being Neptunia (defenders of toys/sea beasts)

* It is implied in one episode that Tank Muddlefoot cut off his grandfather's leg when he was an infant.

* One of the running themes of the show is that DarkIsNotEvil. Darkwing being the prime example, but Morgana is also a "night person". It never occurred to me how much they wanted to drive that theme home until I realized Megavolt is the other half of the analogy: one of the most dangerous criminals in St. Canard is [[LightIsNotGood constantly surrounded by light]].
** And Negaduck's costume is bright yellow and red. His cape is black, but it's lined with bright red.

* [[WholeEpisodeFlashback By narrating the plot of "Night of the Living Spud"]] to a group of Boy Scouts (or are they [[WesternAnimation/Junior Woodchucks]]?), Darkwing revealed his SecretIdentity as Drake Mallard, didn't he? Actually, no -- at no point in Darkwing's story do we see Drake Mallard changing into Darkwing Duck. In the story as told, Drake's merely the neighbor of the Muddlefoots, who sees them leave to go camping (establishing why they're there when the monster catches them), and then sees the strange news report that segues into Bushroot's latest crime spree and Darkwing Duck first getting involved. After that, he's never seen again, nor does Gosalyn ever address him as "Dad." In Darkwing's version, Drake is merely an innocent bystander used to provide exposition via what he observes, not an important character like Darkwing, and an in-universe listener who knew nothing about either of them would never make the connection.

* Ordinary Guy's ''life''. Is it any wonder he [[spoiler: snapped and became villainous?]]
