"Do I look cute? Of course, a magenta would suit me better!" Pirate's Revenge (2011)

[alexandrareadscomics]

The last comic in this issue is part 2/2 of the Mickey & Donald story Millenniets magiska midnatt (known in English as New Year's Nightmare), written by Pat and Carol McGreal and drawn by Cèsar Ferioli Pelaez.

This one was always frustrating to me as a kid, because it's obviously the ending to a big cross-over adventure, and my subscription only started with this issue... so I've never actually read the beginning. The story has only been published twice in languages I understand, so I'd either have to track down a Swedish Kalle Anka & C:o issue from 1999 or an American Walt Disney's Comics and Stories from 2007.

The story does give us enough to get us up to speed, though. The evil wizard Morbidio is preparing to fuse his two magical orbs into a scepter that will let him rule the world, and apparently it needs to be done at the strike of midnight of the new millennium. The gang stopped him at midnight in Duckburg, but he's gonna try again in a time zone where it's still December 31.

Borrowing Scrooge's high-speed aircraft, Mickey and Donald go to confront the wizard at Goodnight Atoll, located exactly on the international date line, and there's some fun dramatic art of seagulls and sea lions fleeing as he successfully fuses the orbs and summons a tidal wave to obliterate Mickey and Donald.

Apparently, they learned in the previous issue that you can interfere with the orbs with high-pitched sounds, and they manage to do so with conch chells... causing the scepter to divide and suck the wizard into a magical whirlwind.

"I'm not afraid of picking them up, I just don't wanna do it."

Afterward, this fun scene where the two try to get the other to be the one to pick up the orbs while hiding that they're afraid of touching them, as the camera pulls back.

So obviously I'm missing the first half of this, but I'll say that the story feels pretty average, and that what really carries this is the interactions between Donald and Mickey, and the great art. I wish they got to interact more often, because their frenemies/rivals dynamic is some good stuff and makes Mickey way more of an interesting character than he usually is.

So that's it for Kalle Anka & C:o 2000-01. Next issue has a William van Horn story, and I'm looking forward to that.

Duckverse Comic Translation - Mummy crumb

New Dimeshipping Comic translation and it is AWESOME! THE ENDING! Loved it!

MUCH and endless thanks to TheUltimateDuckFan  for pointing the new comic to me, providing the pages and BETA reading!

♥

I can hardly put into words how much this story has delighted me. I translated it in two days cause I wanted to know whats going on exactly ^^;

I like it when Magica is drawn older, but still her beauty is recognised. Also that she doesn't care a bit about the good looking Egyptian.

The guy came a few years too late. For her there is only Scrooge ;p (my opinion)

Yes, Scrooge is theoretically just following his dime but the development is fantastic. As soon as they are in the present, Scrooge begins to praise Magica for saving his life and so does she aswell.

The most important thing about this story is the last page. The two embrace each other as if it were the most natural thing in the world, because for a moment they don't think about who they are. It is honest. they make quiet the "power team". Exactly!

Rarely have you seen the two of them with such happy faces. And so it seems that what comes after is what I always thought it was. An excuse.

They keep trying to convince themselves that they must be enemies, but it seems artificial and suddenly they are not happy anymore.

Even Gyro's face, who has been watching everything, speaks volumes.

But the two stubborn heads are still far from being honest with their feelings.Yet it was a fantastic beginning.

And yes I know it was all we will ever see in Canon. But it makes me very happy, that's all I expected from Canon ever anyway ♥

If the Ducktales reboot could include such a scene, it would make up for the otherwise other screw-up of Magica in that show for me.

Pat McGreal's passing is very sad. He and his wife Carol wrote a lot of my favorite Mickey Mouse comics. He really seemed to know the characters in and out.

for real for real ;__; best way to honour his memory I figure is to give many of them a reread, they're amongst the best stories out there so I know they'll stand the test of time!

No dia 26 de setembro, é distribuído nos pontos de venda de periódicos a revista Mickey #2, a qual contém uma banda desenhada muito aguardada pelos leitores, que celebra um duplo aniversário.

Em 2017, comemoram-se os 50 anos da mais famosa criação de Hugo Pratt, Corto Maltese, bem como os 50 anos da publicação da primeira BD Disney de Giorgio Cavazzano. O resultado de ambas as comemorações foi a homenagem Disney à BD A Balada do Mar Salgado com os desenhos de Cavazanno.

Pratt à esquerda, Cavazzano à direita.

Eis algumas comparações gráficas entre estas obras italianas (clique nas imagens para as visualizar em toda a sua extensão):

Com argumento de Bruno Enna, a banda desenhada inicialmente publicada na revista italiana Topolino, teve êxito imediato. Foi então publicada uma edição de luxo e um portefólio artístico em Itália. Em Portugal, é a primeira vez que esta BD é publicada, tal como as demais BD deste número. Sendo composta por 2 partes, estão ambas nesta revista, permitindo deste modo a leitura integral da obra.

O Mickey tem ainda direito a uma outra história, vinda da Dinamarca, com argumento de Carol e Pat McGreal e desenhos de Romano Scarpa. E o Pateta é o protagonista de 2 BD curtas, uma delas na companhia do seu amigo rato.

O segundo número da revista do Mickey conta com 2 convidados. Do Brasil, chega-nos uma banda desenhada protagonizada pelo Morcego Vermelho. Nesta, satiriza-se a predominância dos heróis estrangeiros na mente dos patapolenses (e não só).

O segundo convidado é o Urtigão, ou melhor o Urtigão Van Gogh, protagonista de uma BD da série A História de Arte de Mickey, com uma palete de cores dedicada. Como é habitual nesta série, a BD está repleta de referências à vida e obra de Van Gogh. Donald interpreta Gaugin, que viveu os seus últimos anos no Taiti e outras ilhas da Polinésia, e Peninha o Andre Gachet, com a roupa deste inspirada no quadro do artista. Outras referências a obras de Van Gogh são o quarto/estúdio de Urtigão e a noite estrelada sobre o rio. O argumento é de Roberto Gagnor e os desenhos de Stefano Zanchi.
