10 Iconic Animated Series To Stream On Disney+

8. Darkwing Duck

Gargoyles Series

Before there was an MCU, there was Darkwing Duck. He's a dark and mysterious hero who ultimately saved the day despite himself and his ego. On the flip side, he is also navigating life as a single father of one adopted daughter, Gosalyn. Being a neophyte hero and father makes for some interesting story lines that parody many comic books.

While the creator of the series reputedly says otherwise, all indications are that Darkwing Duck and DuckTales, another duck-based animated series, happen in the same universe. Both series feature Launchpad McQuack as a main character as well as Gizmoduck as a side character. Additionally, Scrooge McDuck, the richest duck in the world on DuckTales, gets name checked on Darkwing Duck more than once.

Regardless, this is one of those shows that is a must watch for any fan.
