Today, we will take a look at Negaduck #3 published by Dynamite Comics.

Release Date: December 6th, 2024

Writer: Jeff Parker

Artist: Ciro Cangialosi

Letterer: Jeff Eckleberry

Editor: Nate Cosby

Covers by: Jae Lee, Trish Forstner, Drew Moss, and Ciro Cangialosi

Official Synopsis:

After using his bad-boy charm on the sorceress Morgana, our proud arch-villain Negaduck has learned the location of Agony Island, where King Midas’ vault hides the Gauntlet of Gold! Only one problem: Once he gets there, he discovers that everything on the island is trying to destroy him!

Check out the amazing action figure variant cover below by Ciro Cangialosi featuring Hammerhead. The action figure variant covers have been a highlight for me between the Disney Villains, Gargoyles, Darkwing Duck, and Negaduck comics. It is too bad that many of these action figures do no exist in real life.

My Review

*STOP READING HERE IF YOU WANT TO AVOID ALL SPOILERS*

Negaduck’s quest for King Midas’ Gauntlet of Gold continues. For Negaduck to reach his goal, he will need to travel the dangerous journey to Agony Island which has him battling a giant kraken and many underwater monsters as he takes Taurus Bulba’s ship into submarine mode. When he finally arrives on Agony Island, he discovers that many of St, Canard’s villains beat him too the island.

There are many obstacles on the path to the vault of King Midas including strangleberry vines and quick sand. Negaduck is content with letting the other villains clear the path to the vault. In the end, only Megavolt, Bushroot, Quackerjack, and the Liquidator make it to the end goal. Negaduck proposes a short reunion of the Fearsome Five.

There are many gloves that are found in King Midas’ vault. Quackerjack’s glove turns objects in to stone. Megavolt finds a glove that can turn what he touches to valuable diamonds. The Liquidator’s glove makes items into chocolate. The diamond and chocolate gloves don’t seem so bad, but Negaduck finally finds what he is after…King Midas’ Gauntlet of Gold.

YES! I love the Fearsome Five. I wonder if we will get a Fearsome Five comic after this series? Negaduck has the golden touch and his “Goldfeather” story line concludes in the next issue. Everything that Negaduck turns to gold including this comic series. We are living the Nega Dream reading comics starring Negaduck in 2024.

The next issue of Negaduck has a tentative release date of February 28th, 2024. Please make sure to support the other Dynamite Comics Disney releases: Justice Ducks, Gargoyles, Gargoyles: Dark Ages, Lilo and Stitch, and Disney Villains Cruella De Vil.
