Michael Markowitz was responsible for the cliffhanger ending of the Duckman series, about which he has said: “We never formally planned Part II...and I’ll never tell what I personally had in mind. I’m hoping to leave it to my heirs, for the inevitable day when Duckman is revived by future generations. Ah, the Spandex suits they’ll wear, the hovercrafts they’ll fly!”
