<p><b>Roboduck</b> is a <a href="Superhero" title="Superhero">superhero</a> that appears in the <a href="NEW-GEN_(Comic)" class="mw-redirect" title="NEW-GEN (Comic)">NEW-GEN</a> comic books published by <a href="Marvel_Comics" title="Marvel Comics">Marvel Comics</a>. Created by Chris Matonti, J.D. Matonti, and Julia Coppola, he first appeared in NEW-GEN #1 (2010). He is a sentient <a href="Robot" title="Robot">robot</a> from the world of NEW-GEN, and a member of the A.P.N.G. since its founding.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>Roboduck was assembled on New-Gen, as a first generation combat robot, equipped with an advanced weapons system. After being infected by a nanobot plague created by <a href="Deadalus_(comics)" title="Deadalus (comics)">Deadalus</a>, Roboduck gains enhanced human-level intelligence and is taken by a man named Gabriel, who trains him to use his abilities responsibly.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Training_with_A.P.N.G.">Training with A.P.N.G.</h3></div>

<p>As the human members of the A.P.N.G. grew up, Roboduck joined them in their combat training and school studies. As he is unable to learn like a normal New-Gen robot, via uploads and downloads, Roboduck lacks the vast informational wealth available to other robots, like Nate Guard, another member of the A.P.N.G. With his hyperactive and improvisational mind, he quickly established himself as the class clown of the A.P.N.G., wisecracking and causing mischief throughout much of their education.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Battle_with_Sly">Battle with Sly</h3></div>

<p>After Sly burrowed out of the underworld onto Zadaar IV with his army of MetalMites and <a href="Microtechnology" title="Microtechnology">microbots</a>, Roboduck was sent, along with the rest of the members of the A.P.N.G. to fight, after Sly's forces proved to powerful for Mini to beat on his own. Throughout the course of the battle, Roboduck destroyed several MetalMites with his weapons array. He also allows <a href="Minotaur_(New-Gen)" title="Minotaur (New-Gen)">Mini</a> to use him as a <a href="Cannon" title="Cannon">cannon</a> of sorts, Mini aiming him at enemies and squeezing him so a more powerful plasma burp can be shot.<sup id="cite_ref-New_Gen_5_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-New_Gen_5-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> When Sly uses his specialized laser and deactivates the nanobots inside the A.P.N.G., he also disables Roboduck's entire operating system, rendering him inert for a brief period of time. Gabriel resurrects Roboduck when he arrives and gives all the members of the A.P.N.G. specially designed nano-gloves, restoring them to full power. As Gabriel fights Sly, Roboduck resumes destroying MetalMites with his teammates, eventually emerging victorious and returning home to New-Gen.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Powers_and_abilities">Powers and abilities</h2></div>

<p>As a first generation battle robot, Roboduck possesses an advanced, plasma--based, weapon system for use in ranged combat. His arms transform into plasma cannons from which he can fire bolts of plasma. He can also burp a more powerful fire blast from his mouth, but he has trouble controlling it. If he is squeezed hard while firing his fire burp, the power of the attack is increased by a drastic margin. Roboduck is also capable of flight, enabled by thrusters in his feet and elbows.<sup id="cite_ref-New_Gen_5_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-New_Gen_5-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>After being infected by Deadalus' nanobots, Roboduck lost the ability to gain and process information like a robot. However, the nanobots gave Roboduck the ability to learn and think like a human. This allows him to think more analytically, feel more emotion, and improvise more effectively than most other robots on New-Gen. It also allows him to disobey orders and seek attention through fooling around.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
