Paperinik New Adventures #5 & #12, 1997 (Walt Disney Magazine Italy). Alesandro Sisti, Alessandro Barbucci, Massimo Sardi and Italia. #5 Republished as Duck Avenger New Adventures by IDW publishing, 2018

Hey so I've been reading Paperinik New Adventures, one of the Topolino magazine Donald Duck titles. Lots of Topolino is currently getting republished these days finally in the west, above here #5 is from an official translation by IDW and #12 is a fan translation.

If you would like to read them or find some more information on the history, they are all online for free on Archive.org here in various formats.

So to talk about this comic briefly, it has some of the most astounding page layouts and backgrounds I've seen in a while. The fun part though, is this is like a Disney equivalent of Archie Sonic the Hedgehog, in that they take the base character template and kind of go off the reservation with it.

I thought I'd share the panels above from issues 5 and 12 to show you Geena's story, because it's the best example of how damn far it goes. In its favour against Sonic though, even with an extended introduced cast it keeps a really narrow scope, you're never without Donald. He's a good dude, they changed him from bumbling into just a bit airheaded until he gets focused.

Fuck it, belated Christmas Donald Uno fanart comic! Please left to right, top to bottom! Happy new year!

Yes, I know. It's not Christmas anymore. I haven't made full on DonUno art for a while. But this has been sitting in my drive for years, and after losing progress on this thrice due to corrupted files, I present to you, this annoying work ToT. Happy new year everyone!

Dialogue for anyone finding it hard to read:

Page 1: Donald: Merry Christmas Uno! Uno: Yes, Merry Christmas Donald… What is that? Donald: A present! It's Christmas so I got you a gift! Open it! Uno: T-Thank you. It's a… scarf? Donald: Yeah! Handmade. Uno: A scarf for an AI with metal wiring and frames? Donald: All right about that… i didn't think about it until halfway making this darn thing…

Page 2: Donald: I know you don't feel cold but being in the tower probably isn't that comfy and warm... Even if you do feel cold you can control the thermostat anyway but I just- I wanted to still get something for you. It's kinda a silly gift huh? Uno: No, I like it. It's the first time I've received a present. It makes me feel happy that you made something just for me. Donald: Huh? Really?! Uno: Yes, Thank you Don. But I'm afraid I didn't get you anything when you've given me such a wonderful gift. Donald: Aw... shucks, don't worry about it Uno. But you really like it? Uno: Like it? No... I love it! Let's put it on me. Donald: Now? Uno: No better time like the present Avenger. Get it? Present? Hehehe! Donald: Y'know... I'm starting to think this might be too long for you Uno. Uno: Nonsense! In fact I think it's not nearly long enough! Donald: Oh yeah? Then I'll make you a longer one next year! And the year after that, and the one next to it...

Page 3: Odin: And the year after that... You really did make me... the best christmas present I've ever gotten. Merry Christmas Donald.
