This is why the 2011 comics are so freaking wierd: They tried establishing a set continuity in a series that handles continuity like numbered balls in a Bingo cage, by which I mean it's more of a luck of the draw and whatever works at the moment works for now. š
Like, for example, "A Star is Scorned" brings up the possibility that the characters are very much aware that they're just characters, with Bushroot showing no concern at the idea that he's conversing with cartoon analogs of Walt Disney ("Mr. Dizzy") and Tad Stones (Mr. Rockwell), and he just likes the idea of being the star of the program now. "Twitching Channels" also adds that little snarl where it establishes that Darkwing Duck as a series exists as a series in a fictional world that represents ours, and that Rockwell uses some transmitter helmet to get his ideas for the cartoon by tapping into other realities, even acknowledging that "Chip n Dale: Rescue Rangers" is another reality he could tap into that helmet with.
This kind of stuff really creates a loose continuity that we really can't rely on 100%, which is why I have to just wonder if the comics themselves are just an offshoot universe where the guy in charge of cultivating it read one too many DC comics, but ANYWAY...
I like to think that maybe the Friendly Four came first in the "Negaduck is from the Negaverse" alternate reality, and Negaduck just looked at them and thought:
"Fine, I'll go make my own team, and we'll have FIVE members instead of four, so my team is better than yours anyway."
And then he just happened to stumble on Megavolt, QuackerJack, Liquidator and Bushroot in the prime universe, and decided that was easy enough.
