  If you grew up in the 1990s, you might have fond memories of the Disney Afternoon programming block, which included classic Disney cartoons like Ducktales, Talespin, Gargoyles, and--most importantly--Darkwing Duck. Now, Disney's vigilante superhero is coming back on Disney+, according to a report from Variety.

  A reboot of the animated series is in early development and, while a writer has not been found, Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, James Weaver, and Alex McAtee will produce. Rogen and Goldberg are also developing a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles CG-animated feature.

  Now Playing: Disney Plus: 9 Great '80s Movies To Watch

  Darkwing Duck debuted in 1991, with 91 episodes airing across three seasons. Most of us Elder Millennials remember Darkwing Duck from the aforementioned syndicated Disney Afternoon animation block.

  The premise of the show was a parody of vigilante heroes like The Shadow and Batman; Darkwing had all kinds of gadgets and villains that would've fit in fine in the Golden and Silver ages of comic books. Darkwing frequently dropped phrases like "I am the terror that flaps in the night," reminiscent of catch phrases like "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" and "I am vengeance, I am the night, I am Batman!" The show frequently lampooned pop culture, even spending an entire episode on a detailed Twin Peaks parody.

  Since then, Darkwing has lived on in comic books and has appeared in the ongoing Ducktales reboot airing on Disney XD, which features actors like David Tennant, Danny Pudi, and Ben Schwartz in major roles. Voice actor Chris Diamantopoulos voiced the character on Ducktales, but there's no word yet whether he'll reprise his role here or even if the two shows will cross over like they did back in the Disney Afternoon days.

  If you're as jazzed about the Darkwing Duck reboot as we are, check out some of our galleries of your favorite cartoons.
