Duckman

Duckman is an offbeat, creator-owned comedy character by Andrew Murphy who debuted in the Dark Horse Presents anthology. His irreverent, adult-skewing humor earned him a solo series and the miniseries spin-off Duckman: The Mob Frog Saga.

Born in the pages of Dark Horse Presents #22 in 1988, Duckman is a Copper Age original conjured up by creator Andrew Murphy — a character offbeat enough to earn his own solo series and even a miniseries spin-off, Duckman: The Mob Frog Saga, before his run wound down in the mid-'90s. He's a genuinely quirky corner of the era, sharing anthology space with memorable figures like Concrete and Doc Stearn, which tells you something about the adventurous, creator-driven spirit that surrounded his debut. Eventually landing at Topps, Duckman carved out a small but distinct niche across fourteen catalog appearances — a cult figure whose irreverent energy made him stand out in an age that was learning to embrace the weird and wonderful.
