News and discussion on Disney comics from all around the world.

Disney comics are comic books and comic strips featuring Walt Disney characters like Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Scrooge McDuck.

The first Disney comics were newspaper strips appearing from 1930 on. In 1940, Western Publishing began producing Disney comic books in the United States. The most notable American Disney comic books are Walt Disney's Comics and Stories and Uncle Scrooge. In recent decades, Disney comics have seen a decline of popularity in their country of origin.

In the rest of the world Disney comics have been very successful, especially in Europe.

Looking for a Mickey Mouse comic, maybe 1930s, and by Floyd Gottfredson

I found the comic not long ago online to read, but now I can't find it. The comic had the 1930s art style, and in the comic, Mickey and Minnie use a rickety plane to deliver supplies to a little village among some snowy mountains. Once there, they were told they couldn't get back out. They try, and the plane crashes. I checked the Floyd Gottsfredson comics I could find online, and all of the Walt Disney Comics and Stories, but I can't find it now.

So I was wondering if someone might know what comic it is, and maybe what it was printed in. A link would also be very appreciated.

Looking for a Paul Murry Mickey Mouse comic

Hi everybody, this is a story I read back in the 80s, when I was around 8 or 9, so I don't remember a lot of details. It was for sure a Paul Murry story, set in the snow, perhaps a ski lodge, but it wasn't Sawtooth Mountain. I remember that Mickey and Goofy were carried up in arms while people were singing "for he's a jolly good fellow..." i think these people might be hipnotized and couldn't see something was wrong with where they were. Probably Pete was the villain here. Not much, but anyone knows? Would love to read this one again. Thanks!

Mystery comic for teaching

Hey there! I'm a teacher trying to find some fun activities for my students. For this I've decided it would be fun to have them try to solve a mystery comic.
I'm therefore looking for a few Disney (probably Mickey Mouse) single page comics where a mystery is presented with clues in the comic and the solution at the bottom of the page. I know they exist because I remember them but I can't for the life of me find them online.

If anyone knows where they might be or what they're called I'd be much obliged.
Thanks in advance :-)

With Marvel releasing a new Uncle Scrooge story , what do you think are the chances for the monthly book

The last time the Uncle Scrooge book was published was before lockdown. Occasionally IDW still releases a Disney book (or Dynamite) but haven’t seen any signs of anyone resuming the monthly’s. Especially as the last issue was a multi part story - waiting on the finale

I found this comic just looking around for comics, and the art is incredible. Does an English translation exist? Has anyone read it before? How is it?

EDIT: Forgot to put the language of the translation I wanted.

Help finding a comic

It is about Skroutz mac Duck and it is a comic where you can choose his actions to process the story. The theme of the story is about him being locked up outside his treasure safe and he needs to get inside to take some fireworks to use them for an upcoming celebration, but he has lost his remote and tries to find it. You can choose where he goes and how he interacts with different characters

Anyone know if Fantagraphics is going to Reprint Floyd Gottfredson #10: Planet of the Faceless Foes?

It’s IMPOSSIBLE to find online (unless someone knows where, even a foreign edition in English it’s very difficult) and I believe it’s the only one in the series that’s hard to find.

I am aware a copy popped up on EBay yesterday (I didn’t bid on it in the end) and I sent an email to Fantagraphics some time ago inquiring and they said they had no plans at the time.

I’ve found no discussion of this, and I’m afraid to bring it up out of an awareness making the book skyrocket in price if it’s known to be…rare…but, I’m hoping someone knows what’s up or why, or anything???

Looking for information for a duck character.

I can't find any information on this character and I do not know the english nor the italian name for the him, I only know it in swedish, "Teknologen Kvaxmax". He appears in Donald Duck's pocket book "Mitt I Planeten" printed 2008, a collection of various space related stories that seems to be taken from around the 70's til when the book was published. One of Romano Scarpa's stories is included. The story I'm interested in is called "Ankor i galaxen" (Ducks in The Galaxy). The story is divided into four chapters and the script is written by Stefano Ambrosio, illustration are done by Andrea Freccero, Francesco D'lppolito, Guiseppe Dalla Santa and Marco Gervasio.

Uncle Scrooge thinks he has lost the sense for affairs so he takes a break in space by looking for gold on various planets, Gyro Gearloose invents a new way of traveling faster then light, literally drilling through space and time with a big drill on the nose of the spaceship. Throughout their travels they keep encountering this character "Teknologen Kvaxmax", loosely translated into "QuackMax The Technician". He's a mixture between Scrooge and Gyro, he invents crazy things and is crazy for gold. they keep on tricking him and stealing his riches by using various tricks that Scrooge learned in his youth. In the end, Kvaxmax steals all the money from Scrooge's moneybin by using a teleporter and they have to steal it back!

If you happen to recognize this story. Please share! I thought the character was kinda fun in how he is a mirror to Scrooge and I wonder if he appears in any other story.

Will Fantagraphics ever reprint Volumes 5-10 of Don Rosa?

They've reprinted Vol 1 - 4 of Don Rosa and they've reprinted most, if not all, of the Carl Barks volumes -- but 5-10 of Don Rosa have been out of stock I think for a year.

EDIT: Got a message from Fantagraphics themselves: "We do plan to reprint those books but they are not currently on the production schedule. Please check back in six months."

Looking for an Uncle Scrooge comic

I've had this comic since I was a kid. It's about Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck going on vacation to a mansion. The mansion's owner had been missing for some time, dissapeared under mysterious circumstances. At night, they accidentaly go through a magic mirror which makes them travel to the past. There, they are imprisoned by the original owners of the mansion and find the missing present owner of the house. He had gone through the magic mirror like the ducks, and ended up imprisoned way before them. They manage to form a team, escape their cell, avoid the guards and return to the present through the mirror. At the end he shaves his prisoner beard and gives them presents. Do you have any idea how can I know the title of the story or something? My version of the comic doesn't have a title, year or any other data

Looking for a Donald Duck Comics

Hello everyone. When I was young, I remember reading a Donald Duck comics in a magazine that stayed in my mind, but I have never been able to find it. From the summary below, does anyone remember a comic like this?

The plot went like this. It was set during Christmas season and included Donald and Daisy as main characters. The nephews do not appear. Daisy has a friend who is dating a wealthy guy. At the beginning of the comics, Daisy and her friend are on the phone having a discussion and Daisy's friend tells her about what her boyfriend gives her and what events he invites her to. Seeing Daisy look a little tired after listening to her friend, Donald develops a complex and thinks that Daisy is envious of her friend. He tries to match the gifts her friend's boyfriend gives her, but fails at it. The first gift he gives her is a bouquet, but it is low quality and Daisy develops an allergic reaction. The second gift is a bracelet, but it is again low quality and Daisy develops another allergic reaction. Finally, he gifts her a sled ride but there is a storm and they have to take refuge in a restaurant. In there, they meet Daisy's friend and her boyfriend. Daisy and her friend go to the bathroom where Daisy's friend reveals that she is exhausted because all her boyfriend can talk about is the money he makes. Once they are home, Donald and Daisy have a talk and Daisy tells him that she was just tired from listening to her friend and genuinely was not jealous.

If it helps, the comic was published in a French magazine. I do not know whether it is possible it was a comic specially written for this magazine (I kind of doubt it).

Thank you in advance to anyone who can help.

Question about how to get a hold of Topolino comics in the U.S.

Basically i have been following the Topolino Instagram feed and noticed there are issues with stories I am interested in art wise, I do not read or speak italian, I would like to buy the issues that interest me or at least a collection of the longer part stories but I detest the idea of paying 30 dollars shipping for a 4 dollar magazine.

Does any one know of cheaper more affordable ways to buy?

Or places to buy locally smaller us cities?

Also is it a regular thing for them to collect the multi part stories in one form

I am interested in the Captain Nemo Goofy Story and the
Il principe delle sabbie especially and I wonder if I could eventually buy the collected but again I don't read italian so I am not sure what to even look for.

Looking for the name of a Mickey Mouse comic

Hello! I hope you guys can help me find a comic that i never read the ending to as a child, but still think of today, 20 years later.

The first part of the comic went something like this: Goofy is visiting Mickey, and they move a piece of furniture. He discovers a crack in the wall, and when he touches it, it is a puzzle piece. The piece comes off the wall, and behind it is an empty void with stars. Puzzle pieces keeps falling off, and the world is slowly unravelling. Mickey tries to put the pieces back, but it doesnt work. They soon have to run for their lives.

I never got to read the second part of the story, and i would really like to. I am not sure if all of the details of the story, but i hope one of you has the answer. Thank you!

Two Donald/Scrooge comics I can't quite remember

EDIT: rubberchickenci found both of them. Big thanks to everyone who put in time to helping me rediscover these childhood memories!

So this is something of a long shot, but I'll try to lay it out as clearly as I can. Twenty-plus years ago, as a child, I read some Disney comics at a local library in continental America. Some were loose single-issue, but most were in hardback, blue covers I think but am not certain of. There are two stories I can practically see, but either my Google-fu has rusted or they aren't very famous/popular for whatever reason. Regardless, I cannot find either. I had a third entry, but I found it: Mythos Island, all nine parts of which were accounted for and I remember clear as day having re-read them during my search.

The first story involved Donald and the boys going to a haunted mansion or castle, possibly for Scrooge greed related reasons. I distinctly recall Donald in a canopy bed getting the merry bejeezus spooked out of him by a creepy painting coming to life, and I believe the story ended with the mansion/castle being blown up.

The second story involved Gyro Gearloose and Donald being trapped in- what I think was a dimension made up of Gyro's childhood nightmares; monsters would appear and Gyro would have to explain to Donald how to avoid them as they tried to figure out an escape. It is also possible that Donald was actually Mickey as twenty+ year old memories are rather vague, alas.

Any help is greatly appreciated, if I can identify these stories and they are still in print I intend to get them in my collection, cost or quality be quacked. Thanks for reading.

Is "The Complete Life & Times of Scrooge McDuck Vols 1-2" actually complete? Or are there volumes 3, 4, etc.?

I just bought and received vols 1-2, but haven't had the time to read all the way through. I don't want to get to the end of volume 2 and find out that I'm missing the rest of the story. (And I'm a stickler for not "turning to the end of the book," so that's not an option).

The "vols 1-2" thing has me wondering if I messed up and only ordered half the series. But I can't find any reference to further volumes on Amazon, B&N, etc.

If I'm missing some books, please let me know. Any hints about where to find them would be welcome as well, since the major online booksellers don't seem to carry them. Or if they're out of print, hard to find, whatever, that would also be helpful because then I could get in touch with some contacts I have in the used book business.

Thanks!

1940-50s era Disney comics (and others)

As a kid in the 80's-90's I definitely had my own collection, and as a result my father and his brothers (all born between 1942-1946) gave me their comics from their childhood. There are mostly "Walt Disney Comics and Stories" but also Bugs Bunny, some movie tie-in type books and others.

Going back through them now as an adult with my son, and having been out of the comics hobby/collection scene for a long time, is there still a market for these books? I'm not sure what the key issues are, or even if such a thing would exist. I imagine there are books with Carl Banks art that might be marginally more collectible, but nothing I have is probably better than a 5 or 6 grade if that, so no hidden gems I think.

My gut instinct is that these books (and there are maybe 200) have far more value to me as nostalgia, and personal memorabilia than anything else.

I assume if the market is already thin for this era and these books that anything with a missing cover or in a real trash grade is worthless right?

Any advice, including "take them to a local shop and see what they think, stop asking strangers on the internet" is helpful. Thanks!

Just finished the Return of Snow White. What next?

I’ve been wanting to get into Disney comics for a bit now and finally picked up the Return of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs collection which I really enjoyed. Love the introduction of new characters and the occasional crossover between movies. I read the new Scar comic which was pretty good and am reading the new Maleficent comic rn. Any recommendations for comics to read next that have a similar vibe with similar franchises? Would also love to read some Mickey or Donald stuff too but have no idea where to start.

Uncle Scrooge - a world of waste and a world of saving?

Can anyone remember a story where Scrooge McDuck goes to two planets, first one where everybody is very wasteful, then one where everybody is very thrifty (too thrifty even for him)?

Does it ring any bells?

I may be misremembering the details - and I'd be interested in any worlds they visit with weird economies or finances. Thank you!!

Need Your Help

I Need your help with a comic I'm trying to find.

I don't remember much but what I DO remember is this:

  • It's a Christmas comic
  • Definitely based on "It's A Wonderful Life"
  • When Donald complicates his own existent and part in his loved one's lives an angel(?) appears and proceeds to show different visions of how his loved one's lives without him in it. These Include
  • One where Scrooge ends up completely alone on Christmas with nothing than his own money since nobody cares about their miser of a boss
  • One where daisy goes out on a "date" with Gladstone which is just the horserace and ends up completely alone wishing for a real boyfriend
  • One where Huey, Dewey and Louie are at an orphanage trying to celebrate New Years eve only for it to be ruined by other kids at the orphanage
  • Upon realizing his value Donald gets ecstatic only for him to slip and fall of the bridge but luckily lands on something soft
