Wander Over Yonder logo

Wander Over Yonder was a DIsney television animated series. Taking place in far-off galaxy, it featured no classic Duck-Mouse cast, but rather an all-new set of characters; however, it is likely that it takes place in the same universe as DuckTales 2017, as alluded to by a few minor references back and forth. 

Synopsis[]

Wander Over Yonder unfolds in a kooky sci-fi setting and follows the adventure of an extraordinary kind-hearted and helpful galactic wanderer (appropriately named Wander) who tries to make friends with everyone he meets and generally make the universe a better place. Wander is flanked with sapient steed Sylvia, who is as good-hearted as he is, but somewhat less "nice", being a woman of action who rather likes a fistfight now and then just for the heck of it. The third wheel of this relationship is Lord Hater, "electric-skeleton-man" and would-be-terrifying wannabe-galactic-dictator, whose efforts to take over the galaxy and become the greatest villain of all times are perpetually thwarted by Wander's attempts to become friends with him and turn him good.

Behind the scenes[]

Wander Over Yonder started airing in August of 2013. 

Wander Over Yonder actually started as a graphic novel penned by Craig McCracken, Into the Cold Black Heart of Hate, prior to McCracken seeking out Disney to turn the concept into a TV series. The comic remained unfinished, and differed in several respects from the finished series, notably having a different design for Sylvia and nearly-unrecognizable Watchdogs, who were then conceived of not as small humanoids in uniforms, but as eye-shaped robots (this switch would be the object of a passing reference in The Axe).

After a second season which introduced more backstory for the main characters, substantial character development of Lord Hater, and the introduction of new antagonist Lord Dominator, McCracken and his writing team planned out a Season 3, set to fully explore Hater's origin and complete the growth of various characters. However, for unclear reasons, Disney refused to fund a third season, a decision they refused to overturn despite monumental fan outcry. 

Francisco Angones, one of the most major writers for the show aside from McCracken himself, went on to be put in charge of DuckTales 2017, and wasted no time in establishing the shared universe, with a reference to the Oblivion Mirror of Wander making it into the very first episode of DuckTales. He further explored the concept on his blog
