We've been pretty jazzed on Boom! Studios' resurgence of The Disney Afternoon series. The ongoing Darkwing Duck line and the Duck Tales stories in Uncle Scrooge have been a feathery feast for the eyes, but on the eve of next week's Chip 'n' Dale Rescue Rangers #1 debut, we're especially stoked to see its host of rad rodents return...
