From The TV IV

Darkwing Duck is an animated comedy that aired in syndication for one season and ABC for two seasons.

Taking a nod to The Spirit and (remotely) Batman, the series has Drake Mallard, an everyman duck, doubling in secret as cloaked crimefighter Darkwing Duck. He doubles as well as a parent to Gosalyn, a little girl duck he adopts from an orphanage. Along for the missisons is Launchpad McQuack (from DuckTales). Among the baddies Darkwing faces are Bushroot (a hybrid plant), Tuskernini (an opera-loving walrus), and Megavolt (an electrically charged villain). Seasons 1 and 2 had ABC episodes on Saturdays and syndicated episodes weekdays.
