*** In a way, this makes him very similar to Quackerjack; both of them lacked an official origin story in Darkwing's show, are BadassNormal instead of gaining superpowers like the other Fearsome Five; and they went crazy out of a perceived lack of respect for their work, not recognizing their own mistakes, and putting all the blame on their replacement (video games for Quackerjack, a new Darkwing's performer for Jim).

* Classic Darkwing had always implied that Drake's obsession with fame and glory could have turned him evil, or at least with disregard for collateral damage, if Gosalyn and Launchpad hadn't stumbled into his life during the pilot. When [=DuckTales=] started up and Darkwing was a TV show... Jim Starling was missing two people: Gosalyn and Launchpad. Without their ability to rein him in/focus on the bigger picture, Jim Starling slowly turns into his worst self, Negaduck.

** Alternatively, the working electro-gun prop might have been an addition of ''Dewey's'' rather than Boorswan's. Considering Dewey had already added stuff like ''chainsaw jugglers'', it's not out of the question that he would ask for a cool-looking weapon without thinking of the consequences.

*** He'd still be trying to make trouble at a company owned by Scrooge [=McDuck=]. He'd only get so far before he was stopped. The real fridge-horror is that this means we never got to see Scrooge [=McDuck=] and Negaduck fight,

** GeniusBonus: Wether or not there was bleach in the water, there is the fact that any color of fabric will become either white or a yellowish color when exposed to it. In addition, if there was bleach in the water, it could have been used for a scene involving DW to swim through a body of water and it was added into the water in order to keep any bacteria or microbes from forming.

*** It's also worth noting that the show-within-a-show version of Darkwing may have also been darker because he lacked those elements, which would in-turn explain the deconstructionist direction the movie would have taken. Examining what separates a hero from the villains he fights when his methods are just as brutal isn't a good adaptation of Darkwing Duck, but it was arguable a part of the point of Darkwarrior Duck.



** Similarly, the enforced LockedOutOfTheLoop was something that happened to Clayton Moore, the 1950s' [[Series/TheLoneRanger Lone Ranger]], when the (relatively) gritty reboot ''Film/TheLegendOfTheLoneRanger'' was being produced in 1980. Up to and including forbidding Moore to make any public appearances as The Lone Ranger and even banning him from wearing his iconic mask. Fortunately the [[ExecutiveMeddling idiot executives]] belatedly came to their senses and relented on the whole mask thing.

*** Quackerjack: Mad toy maker; despite lacking a proper origin story, it was said that he owned a toy company, and once he went bankrupted, he blamed video games for 'corrupting' children so they no longer appreciated his toys, not realizing that much of his misfortune came from making downright dangerous toys; again, DW stopped him from achieving revenge.

** He also embodies the darker aspects of the original Darkwing's personality is also likely a nod to "Negaduck I" from the episode ''[[Recap/DarkwingDuckS2E3Negaduck]]'', where Negaduck was quite literally Darkwing's dark side given form.
