Go back to the very first theatrically released feature length film based on a Marvel Comic. Back then things where... a little bit different. That Film Stew's Luke and Damian are talking all things Howard the Duck - from comics to the 1986 movie. You may have caught his cameos in the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, or even spotted him in Avengers: Endgame. Perhaps you're looking forward to the upcoming Hulu series, or maybe you're just wondering who the quack is this duck? The movie is directed by Willard Huyckand and stars Lea Thompson, Jeffrey Jones, and Tim Robbins. Produced by Gloria Katz, with George Lucas as executive producer, Howard the Duck follows a sarcastic humanoid duck who is plucked from Duck World to Earth where he must stop a hellish alien invasion with the help of a nerdy scientist and a cute struggling female rock singer.
