Have you read any/many U$ and DD comic books?
Do you have any favourites?
Do you still have some?

I'm sort of intrigued by them-----------the comics were never really a thing here in the US (at least not that I remember), so I hadn't heard of them until I was in my twenties.

Donald was always my favourite Disney guy, and 'DuckTales' was the best part of the Disney Afternoon. (Don't listen to anyone who tells you 'Darkwing Duck' was better. They are shapeshifters, sent by the Adversary to spread the burning sands of Gehenna across the earth.)

...I've heard of people using things from the Donald Duck comics to solve real-world problems. Like the guy who was able to salvage a wrecked boat from the ocean floor by sealing all the hatches and firing ping-pong balls down a hose into its hull until the wreck floated to the surface--------evidently Donald Duck did that exact thing in an issue of the comic, and the guy remembered it from his childhood and decided to give it a try. Sometimes a good idea is a good idea, even if it was thought up by a cartoon duck with a speech impediment and a hair-trigger temper.

Never read any Disney comics that I recall. They seem highly regarded though, I'd probably have enjoyed them as a kid.

^^Donald was a sailor; if he knows anything, it's boats.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Aren't the comics REALLY popular in Europe?
