- Lets get dangerous! Join me in St. Canard as I count down the five greatest (imo) rogues of the best Disney cartoon ever made!

All Darkwing Duck images used in the video are owned by Disney. Darkwing Duck and all related characters are properties of Disney.
You weren't kidding when you said there would be more variety. Bravo, Mr Rogues.
This list makes me want to rewatch Darkwing Duck all over again.
DARKWING DUCK
You should the show is on disney+.
The Terror That Flaps in The Night!!!! Well Done Rogues!
The real Disney cartoon I always watched.
*MOAR!!!*
There are so many more DarkWing Rogues you can cover! Go nuts! Go A through Z, you have my full support!
Also my favorite is Morgana Macabre, because of the whole Batman \ Catwoman relationship they had. She even reformed.
A list on Darkwing Duck, just when I thought these Rogue Countdowns couldn't be more incredible! Seriously, the amazingness is off the charts. Can't wait to see more list involving varied Do-Gooders and Rogues outside of Marvel or DC
Good choice of characters, even with so many more-than-worthy honorary mentions, like Taurus Bulba, Paddywhack, Moliarty, Splatter Phoenix, Beezlebob, Liquidator and Major Synapse (with Hotshot and Flygirl, obviously). But of course, you just had to drop the ball at the end, didn't you? Clearly the number one Darkwing Duck villain is Dr. Slug! ;P
My vote is just The Fearsome Five. Steelbeak and Taurus Bullba were also decent.
Makes me sad to see no love for Liquidator. He was easily my favorite. A water controlling-and-powered super-villain with the chatty cadence of an extremely successful salesman? Brilliant. DON'T WAIT, LIMITED TIME OFFER! TELL YOUR STORE YOU WANT LIQUIDATOR PRODUCTS! ACT NOW...OR ELSE! :D
Liquidator was great yeah, but he only had one single solo episode.
@@mr.rogues4145 That's fair. I guess he's kinda like X-Men's...Pyro is it? Nothing really going on by himself, but amazing in a group setting. Fearsome Five really helped Liquidator shine.
....even though the best pairing in Darkwing Duck is Megavolt and Quackerjack, hands down. Such a good series.
Yeah those two made for a real dynamic duo ;) I've read that the creators felt Liquidator was too "one-note", which is why they didn't use him more... whatever that's supposed to mean...
More likely they could not think of any thing for him so they just stuck him with the Fearsome 5. Shame. He has loads of potential.
Oops, I hadn't seen this comment, so I also posted mine own rant about Liquidator in another post ^^'
Bud Fludd's chara design really fascinated me as a kid; an aquatic dog that spouts slogans? Where do I sign?
(I guess that's why I expected so much of Mr. Combustible when he popped up in Batman New52, dat aqualook + part of a new team of colorful villains =gnnnn)
When there's trouble you call D.W.! Or in this case Mr. Rogues. :D
LOL.good joke buddy!you should be befriend with the joker.
Great video! Never expected this.
I love supervillains in fiction. Also, yeah....Megavolt seems based on Electro right down to his neurotic behavior.
It should be pointed out that Megavolt could be almost as sympathetic a villain as Bushroot. Because he was a living electricity generator, various agents of F.O.W.L. (including Steelbeak) hatched plots to kidnap him and "harvest" his life-force. I recall reading a comic in which Steelbeak literally turned him into a computer simulation, depriving him of his body! Perhaps the only time Megavolt and Darkwing had to team up, both to foil Steelbeak and gain Megavolt his freedom.
I can't wait to see if any of these villains come back due to the fact they've been showing off in the reboot almost all of them have been showing office TV show characters.
I love DW! His rogues were one of the highlights of the show. I love his interactions with Negaduck and Megavolt.
As for my top 5:
5. Bushroot
4. Megavolt
3. Steelbeak
2. Negaduck
1. Taurus Bulba
The only Villain DW (and his daughter) fears. Bulba was a cunning and ruthless criminal mastermind, who still operated his organisation while he was still in Prision.
After his first defeat, he came back as a cyborg and became more powerful. He was arguably the smartest villain on the show and would have deduced the secret ID of DW, if the show wasn't cancelled.
This was a pleasant surprise Rogues. I cannot wait to see what else you have planned for 2019.
Yeah, Bulba was cool too; a shame he didnt appear more often - ditto goes for Liquidator.
Let's get dangerous! This list brings me back to my childhood!
No waaaay! When I was trying to think of water-based villains the other day (after your fire & ices videos), I realized how big of an impact "Bud Flood" aka *the Liquidator* has had on me as a kid ^^
He better be in your list, Monsieur Rogues;
...
Now that I've calmed down, I can finally sit back and watch the video. Thanks in advance \o/
Curses, you did the 4 other members of the Fearsome 5, and left my poor wet dawg super villain out \o/
And just like that, the curse of having Liquidator as my favorite Duck-rogue strikes again...
Seriously, great video, Darkwing Duck was awesome.
Haha he seems to be a lot of people's favorite actually. If only he'd appeared more in solo episodes... :/
Wow, you really made my day with this one Mr. Rogues! To know that somebody who loves Batman so much appreciates Darkwing Duck just makes me feel not alone)) I guess DW had even bigger influence on me as a kid than the old Bats did! And as my top 5 Darwing's greatest foes are kinda simillar to yours, here comes my top 5 underated DW's rogues!
5. The Cheese Gang
(Maybe this 30s style gangster mice don't have the endless story potencial, but with that cool love-for-detail character design and cheese-shooting guns they surely deserved at least one whole episode in my opinion!)
4. Camille Chameleon
(Camille got her own episode, but it feels like the creators didn't have much heart for her to give her more sympathy and motivation. Yes her powers are not very original, but her design is cool and I think she had quite a potential!)
3. Anna Matronic
(Don't know why but already as a kid I loved her strange and simle design and asked myself who is this character who appears only once alongside with the prominent DuckTales villains?? Well, unfortunately this was her only cameo outside the comics and (imo) DW's rogues gallery could definitely use an evil-scientist-robot-genius type of villain!)
2. Mutant Mushroom Monsters
(This Addams Family style gang really reminds me of Count Duckula and other similar 70s/80s dark-themed comedy shows! I think with this great designs and developed characters they actually deserved there OWN show and not just one single episode in DW!)
1. Splatter Phoenix
(This art-themed villainess with a magic brush which gives her powers to enter any painting or draw anything which comes to life instantly was pretty much my favorite DW's foe as a kid and is now! I think her two episodes were actually quite enough for the show and her short story in Joe Books' Darkwing comics just makes her saga live on after this years. I said enough because I think such characters are not every man's taste and not every day villains, but they sure are fun and style combined! Something like Mad Mod in Teen Titans which just transforms the whole episode into a crazy artistic rollercoaster ride!)
Alright! Sorry for much text, but if you (or other DW fan) will find this informative it sure will make me happy as hell!!
NICE!
This may be a little strange to ask but a top 5 Dick Tracy villains would be cool.
I would like to, but I've never read any Tracy comics, and they're kinda hard to find too.
@@mr.rogues4145 Just read "Dick Tracy: Dead or Alive!" and really liked it! It's new, but I guess they tried hard to keep an old atmosphere and style! Now I wanna watch that 90s Dick Tracy movie!
loved this entire vid. my favs where Bushroot ant Steel Beak
Amazing how they got out 91 episodes in one year. With really good TV Animation and voice acting.....Wish Steven Universe took notes from this. 👀
Frog Glen well this was do to the fact that Darkwing Duck was airing Monday through Saturday, so that’s 6 episodes in a week. Children’s programming was different in the 90’s due to first run syndication. We don’t have that nowadays with so many cartoon channels available now compared to back then.
It should be noted that 91 episodes were divided between two "shows", the Disney Afternoon show, and the ABC Saturday Morning show. Episodes of the Saturday show never shown on Disney Afternoon and vica versa.
Nice Darkwing Duck was one of my favorite Cartoon shows
Now this is a good show, Great voice cast, awesome animation, a catchy intro, and It treats the superhero genre with respect, Plus, the comedy is spot on in my opinion.
I loved Darkwing Duck! I didn't even see him as funny; I saw him as "Duck Batman."
I was always a huge fan of the Liquidator. To bad he only ever got just one Episode dedicated to himself alone. But at least he was also a member of the big Evil 5.
It is a shame indeed... apprently the creators felt he was too "one-note", which I myself just cant see... they've could've fleshed him out too in further episodes.
It’s a shame Taurus Bulba didn’t make the list, especially given the impact he left on the series despite having only appeared in a couple of two part episodes (plus it helps he was voiced by Tim Curry).
Ah well, he’ll still always be my favorite Darkwing villain. :)
Interesting fact, he was going to be the primary villain of the next season of Darkwing Duck if the series continued (which would take place after the two part episode he became a cyborg). Thankfully, someone managed to actually use that factoid to create an awesome fanfic that served as a continuation, finale, and overall love letter for the original series.
It also does an amazing job showing just how cunning, ruthless and intimidating Taurus could really be; and overall it more or less helps to prove why I consider him to be Darkwing’s true archenemy:
m.fanfiction.net/s/4597585/1/One-Last-Dance
And without going into spoiler territory, let’s just say the final battle between DW and Taurus is not only fitting, but it shows just what Darkwing is truly capable of. :)
I’d say that there’s also elements from the Lizard in the personality of Bushroot.
Thank you Rogues! Great list. I used to tune into Darkwing after school everyday.
Thanks rogues. Also I didn't do any research first so I don't know if Europe decided to unleash chaos onto all UA-camrs there yet, but if not, then I am happy they didn't because I absolutely love this channel. Sure it may not be the best channel, but it's still a pretty dang good one that deserves more recognition. And I would be sad if something bad ever happened to it
Also can you cover the top 5 Spawn Villains
Nice choices loved darkening duck as a kid and the villains were definitely my favourite part.
Excellent number 1 choice always liked steelbeak I think it was the voice I lover trying to imitate him as a kid.
What I find cool about him is that hes a left over from the orginal early proto version of the show were darkwing was going to be more of a james bond parody called double o duck and steelbeak abd FOWL where going to be his main bad guy.
Obviously that changed but it was cool they kept him and put him in the show instead of discarding him.
It’s funny. I never really grew up watching a lot of super hero shows or reading the comics but There were so many cartoon parodies of the trope that I loved like Powefpuff girls and Darkwing
Powerpuff.*
The most unexpected video of 2019 in january... you always amazes me...
Always good to see some Darkwing love out there!
I guess for my top five, I'd also choose Negaduck, Megavolt and Quackerjack, but I think I'd add Nodoff and Splatter Phoenix on there, too, in no particular order. While I do own the (annoyingly incomplete) DVD release, most of my early exposure to DW was via various rented videotapes (yes, this was a while ago) - and those two villains featured prominently in the ones I saw. I think Nodoff only appeared the once, but it was a very memorable episode - Splatter Phoenix, I believe, was a recurring foe, albeit not for long.
This might be my favorite of your videos! Kudos Mr.Rogues!
Thanks!
I'm late to some of your work! If there was a top 5 villains group the Fearsome 5 have to be in there! Good job!
oh here it is
You have one of the best channels on the tube. Well done.
1:40 - N°5 - Negaduck
3:10 - N°4 - Quackerjack
4:30 - N°3 - Bushroot
6:05 - N°2 - Megavolt
7:45 - N°1 - Steelbeak
Niggaduck 🤣
@@salahdarity0991NOT FUNNY.!!.
Ahhhh such graceus memories
Of toon Disney darckwing duck
Another inspiration of my character and frealing sweet
List dear sir i need to rewatch the series
I actually did not see this video coming. I was introduced to this show because it was a spinoff of ducktales and they just recently gave that show a reboot. If you are serious of having this channel do a variety of of heroes and villains, could you please do characters like the shadow and the green hornet, or anything similar to pulp fiction characters as they were technically the first superheroes and played much of the ground work. Awesome video and always
I am actually planning a review of the 1994 Shadow movie, but other than that nothing else at the moment.
My Top 5 Favorite Darkwing Duck Villains:
#5 - Quackerjack
#4 - Steelbeak
#3 - Megavolt
#2 - Liquidator
#1 - Negaduck
A real man's rogues gallery!
Dude the DuckTales reboot is so good. It also touches on Goof Troop, Rescue Rangers, and mostly Darkwing Duck.
Steelbeak is a real class act. Wit, sophistication and real snazzy dresser! While his beak can crunch steel like nothing, he's way to do business is that of a silver fox! ( imagine him and 2face working together!)
Ye let's go!
Negaduck is the best villain
DarckingDuck is my fav character!
I watched the show on Disney+ it is very cool.
My....God....just when I thought this channel can't be better! Freaking Darkwing Duck! Captain Planet top 5 villains would be pretty cool to see. 😀😀
Haha =D Well unfortuanely I've never seen Captain Planet, so that seems unlikely.
Let's get Dangerous!
I feel a bit bad for bushroot, only cause he wanted to stop🌎hunger, but other's were being weasels to him. (Welcome to the club.). his counterpart, I'D be his pal in a flash.
My favorite Darkwing Duck foes were Taurus Bullba, and Negaduck. Bullba was like Marvel"s Kingpin with horns, and Negaduck was just vicious!
I always felt sorry for Bushroot. He just wants friends.
Yup I never saw this video coming, and I love it.
Certainly didn't see that coming. But if you're branching out to cover TV show characters, then I may have a suggestion for a forgotten super villain. You know those characters that got made for a cartoon adaptation of a comic book superhero only to later get adapted into the comics themselves? Like Harley Quinn, Agent Coulson or the modern version of Mr Freeze? There's this really obscure Spider-man villain who only appeared in one episode of the also forgotten Spider-man The New Animated Series, who I think SHOULD have been adapted into the comics.
Lewis Wyler AKA Turbo Jet. A guy in a spacesuit that travels at super speed, can push objects away or pull them nearer, and rather than being a straight up villain, he acts as more of a Robin Hood type of criminal, using the money he makes to help the residents of an underfunded building complex, ironically making him more popular with the public than Spider-man. I think he's interesting. Not to mention he's got a great visual design.
By the way, check out the Far From Home Trailer, it’s...mysterious
Nega Duck being *number 5!? What!?*
He'd be unhappy, had he had read this.
I am the Terror that flaps in the night! I am the leftover peanut butter and grape jelly sandwich that stains your math homework giving you a failing grade!! I AM DARK WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING DUCK!
I barely remember this show. I gotta watch it again!
Go for it!
Megavolt was always my favorite Darkwing villain, but I can respect your choice and reasoning for Steelbeak.
You saw this as a kid, you had a beautiful childhood!
You could get a lot of content going over unique and complex characters who started out as parodies. Deadpool, Rick & Morty, the list goes on and on.
Such a great show.
Hat aliens are another one of my favorites
SOMEONE ELSE REMEMBERS THE HAT ALIENS! :D
The liquidator
I want to see top villain women from darkwing duck
I remember the days when I was living in my child world, signing letters with "Kind regards, Darkwing" and stating I would take the teeth of Quackerjack
This seem like my show I would love to watch it
Awesome video man 👌👍👍👍👍
Thanks!
3:59 Actually you forgot about the time that Mr Banana brain got possesed by Paddywhack
No offense and awesome video by the way
My friend, my favorite villain in darkwing Duck, is megavolt. Cuz that dude sure knows when to start the party with a bang.
do the top 5 electric villains
My top 5
5. Liquidator
4. Splatter Phoenix/Quackerjack
3. Bushroot
2. Megavolte
1. Negaduck
Megavolt.*
I loved this show, but to decide on my favorites I would need to rewatch the show. Dark-Wing Duck also had his own ongoing comic series a few years ago that was sadly cancelled due to a licensing dispute.
I'm glad Steelbeak is getting some love. I've always felt he is a very underrated DW villain. But I'd say Taurus Bulba is the most evil villain of the show, and not Negaduck. But he is definitely the second most evil.
#1 deserved
Darkwing's rogues gallery is cool. My top 5 Darkwing Duck villains
1. Steelbeak
2. Megavolt
3. Quacker Jack
4. Negaduck
5. Taurus Bulba
Back when Disney had to work for it. It was way better too .
ah I remember when Disney wasn't disgusting
Darkwing Duck is in desperate need of a reboot.
1. Quackerjack
2. Negaduck
3. Liquidator
4. Camille Chameleon
5. Stealbeak
6. Dr Fossil
7. Splatter Phoenix
8. Megafold
9. Taurus Bulba
10. One-Shot (it’s a less known villain)
I think nega duck is my favorite. Because he reminds me of venom, like in the comics I was doing research on the internet he looked like he's got some black symbiotic power.
Wow Darkwing and Megavolt, the hero and villain born on the same night, like Spider-Man and The Green Goblin
This made my day. :3
2021 and sti waiting for a new Darkwing Duck show!!!!
Still.*
I LOVE DARKWING DUCK!
I think megavolt is the best!
Then negaduck, bushroot, splatter Phoenix, and cat-Tankeris from the comics.
Awesome man just awesome
I can safely say that I wasn't expecting this. That isn't a complaint, by the way; now I'm wondering what other sorts of Rogues Galleries you'll be looking at.
I'm actually going to decline to say much on this one, simply because I've actually had this exact idea for a list in mind for a LONG time, and I might be making it in the near future thanks to you. XD I'm probably going to bump things up all the way to a Top 10, rather than a mere Top 5, like I usually do. All of your choices would be among those ten, although I'm pretty sure most of them (except maybe Bushroot) would be in rather different places. For example, I actually would put Negaduck at number one...which I'm sure is a surprise to NO ONE, since I seem to be one of those people who favors the arch-nemesis in almost any Rogues Gallery. I swear, I have no idea why that is, by the way; it just seems like, nine times out of ten, my favorite villains are the arch-enemies to their respective heroes...even when they are overdone... (I'm looking at you, Lex and Mr. J.) There are exceptions, but they are rare. Which is especially funny, since you seem to be almost always of the opposite opinion there...again, not that I'm complaining. You haven't made a bad choice for your favorite baddie on any list yet. ;)
Anyway, I digress. This was an awesome thing to see today! Although, one quick thing: "the catchiest theme song of any cartoon," you say?
Another Duck-themed show might have something to say about that...
It aint got nuthin on the Darkwing theme! ;)
And yeah it's funny how we're opposite in that way, with the arch-enemies; and I remember you put Negaduck high on some list in the past... a list of Disney show villains I think it was. Anyway, looking forward to seeing your Darkwing list, and which other 5 rogues shows up on it; I assume Liquidator and Taurus Bulba - they seem to be real popular, and for a reason.
@@mr.rogues4145 Well, one being voiced by Tim Curry definitely helps his case a lot. Especially with me; Curry is one of the people who made me want to be an actor. XD
The biggest villain and threat to Darkwing was...Darkwing's ego.
He got himself into more trouble than anyone and was his own worst enemy.
I wished negatron negaduck had more screen time
Negaduck and Megavolt has always been my favorite villians.
Nice to see you branching out to works outside comics, and this was a great start since Darkwing Duck, while not my favorite Disney cartoon, still has a fantastically weird and memorable rogues gallery.
Any thoughts about doing a Top 5 Power Rangers villains in the future?
I don't know much about Power Rangers, so probably not - but there will be more of these "outside my comfort zone" lists and videos in the future regardless!
Why didn’t the Liquidator make your list?
Negaduck
Great video rogues
Thanks, cybermaster!
my fave Darkwing villains, in no particular order: Negaduck, Taurus Bulba and that gang of alien hats who possessed people (yes really) who appeared a couple of times.
True but some of the agents steel beak works with cause a bunch of head aces I think he once was forced to work with a evil house keeper .
Now do Duck Avenger/Paperinik villains! if you don't know hwo that is, it's donald duck as a superhero, and the main plot involves him fighting a race of evil, violent aliens. Helping him are a benevolent AI and an alien superpowered woman named Xadhoom. Villains include a time traveling thief, an evil twin of the good AI and of course the aforementioned alien race who act as Duck Avenger's collective archfoe.
You should cover ducktales villians next!
Before the video ...Nega Duck 😈.
What no mention of Dr Slug, the greatest villain to harrass St. Canard!?
but seriously, I would've liked to have seen Dr Slug actually appear as a villain in the comics if not the tv show. Sure that'd ruin the entire joke, but still.
I thought ALL the villains were great! I remember Tuskerlini, the snobbish walrus; the Bushwhacker, who was a gigantic Australian frontiersman stereotype; Fluffy, a kitten who became evil when he developed sentient intelligence and built a cyborg suit that allowed him to walk on two legs...and this other guy whose name I can't remember, who had a playing-card gimmick and tried to kill Darkwing and Launchpad by putting them on a conveyor belt headed for a card-cutting machine, in an obvious poke at the impractical death traps from the BATMAN TV show.
Negaduck better not had, read that.😏
What are your thoughts on Steelbeak from Ducktales 2017
Here's my top 5
5. Taurus Bulba
4. Steelbeak
3. Tuskernini
2. Bushroot
1. The Liquidator
For my top 5/6 - Jambalaya Jake and Gumbo, Taurus Bulba, Megavolt (I gotta say you sounded a bit like Castellanta), Tuskerninni and Steelbeak.
Some honorable/dishonorable mentions - Negaduck, Professor Moliarty, The Liquidator, Bushroot, Quackerjack and Mr. Banana Brain.
I heard that Bushroot’s voice actor passed away last year
Really? What a shame... RIP.
Mr. Rogues same.
Tino.insana. (cancer.).
Let's get dangerous.
I knew I subscribed for a reason
my favorite by far was The Liquidator
Mine too! What a ham!
My favorite superhero comedies have the heroes still be heroes, this show being a goof example
