Could Howard the Duck Be Appearing in Marvel's SHE-HULK Series at Disney+?
A new rumor has popped up involving one of the weirder Marvel characters, Howard the Duck. This guy, or duck, first appeared in the comic Adventure into Fear #19 in 1973, and several subsequent series have followed the misadventures of the ill-tempered anthropomorphic character. He starred in his own film in 1986, which was weird, and widely panned, and has since made background cameos in the first two Guardians of the Galaxy films, Avengers: Endgame, and in an actual storyline (voiced by Seth Green) in the Marvel Disney+ animated series, What If…?.
But the current rumor is that we may see the character return more prominently once more in the upcoming series She-Hulk. People are considering the possibility after a fan noticed Disney teasing Howard the Duck's return in She-Hulk in Picsou Magazine, an officially licensed French magazine, and reported the find on Twitter. Check out the magazine's excerpt below:
The English translation reads:
"A webbed future? Howard the Duck seems to be part of Marvel's plans again: in the What If...? series, he got married to Darcy Lewis...Does the duck, elected in 2009 as one of the strangest characters in the Marvel team by "Time" magazine, have a promising bright future? In any case, the She-Hulk series, which lands this year on Disney +, could reserve some "what the duck" surprises! This should delight lovers of this turbulent duck, determined to do as he pleases."
In the 1980s, Howard the Duck appeared in Sensational She-Hulk #14, and since he frequently acts as a private detective in the comics, he and Jennifer cross paths during her law career. Plus, we know the character appeared in Endgame among the Ravagers. Could he have stayed on earth since that time? For now, it’s just a rumor, but as the above mentioned magazine is Disney-licensed, this is a real possibility.
Would you be excited to see Howard the Duck appear in She-Hulk later this year?
