Doctor J. L. Baterista

**Doctor J.L. Baterista** was a human man.

## Description

A member of the Society of Explorers and Adventurers, Doctorr Baterista was a colleague of Lord Henry Mystic. A jovial-looking fellow, it would seem that Baterista spent much time exploring the jungle. Baterista also explored the Congo River in 1906, and later displayed an oar from that expedition at the Tropical Hideaway, as is the S.E.A. tradition.

Baterista may have been a sea captain at some point of his life. At any rate, he once gifted a captain's hat to Mary Oceaneer, who later displayed it aboard her ship, the RV *Oceaneer Lab*.

## Behind the scenes

Doctor J. L. Baterista first appeared in the queue of *Mystic Manor*in 2013. Other references to him have since been spotted in various S.E.A.-related attractions.
Down the Hatch

***Down the Hatch*** is a cartoon story written by Darrick Bachman, Clay Morrow, Richard Pursel, Heiko Drengenberg and Paul Rudish, and directed by Wasson. It features Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Donald Duck and Ludwig von Drake. Gyro Gearloose also makes a cameo.

## Synopsis

Ludwig von Drake hosts a tour in the Hall of Science, where he shows Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy the Shrink Ray. But as soon as Ludwig's back is turned, Donald accidentally sets it off on his two pals, who end up in the duck's glass of water. Drunk by Donald, the two playfully set out to explore his innards, accidentally causing much slapstick discomfort for Donald back in the human-scale world, like making him sing like a rockstar by playing with his vocal cords like guitars, making echoes in his brain area, Ect!

### References

* The Shrink Ray is found at the Hall of Science, where Ludwig von Drake and Gyro Gearloose are employed.

### Continuity

* This is the first cartoon in *Mickey Mouse: The Series* whose initial hook is a visit to the Hall of Science followed by a misused Von Drake machine causing trouble. This scheme would be reused in *Split Decision* (2016) and *Outta Time* (2019), with the latter directly referencing the previous two.
* It is revealed that people can go in others bodies
* It implies that Donald's vocal cords can be strummed or plucked, making it play music.

## Behind the scenes

*Down the Hatch* is an episode of *Mickey Mouse: The Series*. It was released on June the 21st, 2014.

It was the first (and, so far, only) appearance of Gyro Gearloose in the series, and also his only animated appearance in the same cartoon as Ludwig von Drake.
Donald Duck (1935 story)

Cover of the book in its original 1935 printing.

***Donald Duck*** is a written illustrated story by unknown authors (credited only as "the Staff of Walt Disney Studios"), featuring Donald Duck and Morty and Ferdie Fieldmouse, the latter being described as Mickey Mouse's nephew in the narration, although Mickey himself plays no part in the plot.

## Description

Mickey's nephews challenge "Uncle Donald Duck" to a swimming contest. Although Donald was happy lazing around in his houseboat thus far, he takes the challenge more seriously than he probably should.

### References

### Continuity

* Donald is still living in the same houseboat as he was in *The Wise Little Hen* (1934).

## Behind the scenes

This book, the first licensed tie-in storybook about the character ever produced, was published by Whitman in 1935. It has today reached the status of collector's items.

The book also marks the first reference to the Duck family, although in the form of what is likely nothing more than empty boasting on Donald's part.

A cousin of Gladstone Gander's (seeming on the Gander side, despite the last name), Disraeli Duck is inordinately good at drawing others' pity towards him, which he manipulates for his own gain. Gladstone seems to be the only person aware of Disraeli's manipulative ways.

## Behind the scenes

## Plot

Donald Duck is plagued by terrible nightmares, night after night. Against his wishes, Huey, Dewey and Louie call a doctor, who prescribes an activity Donald will find both despicable and dull — crocheting, as it happens. But on top of the humiliation should Daisy ever find out, Donald soon realizes this method is ineffective. There remains one final suggestion of the Doctor's — perhaps Donald living through a scare bigger than anything he could dream might cure him!…

## Behind the scenes

Written in August of 1948, this story was first printed in February of 1949 in *Walt Disney's Comics and Stories* #101. It was reprinted in *Walt Disney's Comics and Stories* #491, the *Gladstone Comic Album* #12, *Donald Duck Family Comics* #2, and, of course, in the various versions of the *Carl Barks Library*.

Don Karnage (2017 Continuum)

**Don Karnage** is an anthropomorphic red wolf and seemingly the 2017 Continuum's counterpart of the main universe's Don Karnage.

## Description

Don Karnage is a sky pirate and the egotistical captain of the *Iron Vulture*. He and his crew have worked out a peculiar scheme for plundering: as they board the plane or airship they have set their greedy hearts on, they sing an elaborate musical number — all while robbing the plane of its cargo. The rightful owners are inevitably too flabbergasted by the absurd spectacle that they only react too late.

In 2018, Karnage attempted to rob Scrooge McDuck's plane. Things went smoothly at first, but the pirates ended up taking Dewey Duck with them as a stowaway. Dewey, feeling starved for appreciation of late, manipulated the crew members' resentment against Karnage for hounding the spotlight during the musical numbers, leading them to rebel against him, throwing him overboard and becoming the new Captain.

Through a combination of his own wits and charisma, Scrooge's adventuring skills, and Captain Dewey's growing moral qualms about piracy, Karnage was able to regain his position as the Captain of the Iron Vulture, but crashes his ship soon after, leading him to declare Dewey his sworn enemy forevermore.

## Behind the scenes

This version of Don Karnage was first seen in the 2018 episode of *DuckTales 2017*, *Sky Pirates… in the Sky!*.

According to Francisco Angones, the decision to recast Karnage from Jim Cummings to Jaime Camil (even though Cummings was already part of the cast) was due to a willingness to get an actor fitting the character's background — which would seem to confirm this version of Karnage as of genuinely Hispanic descent, as opposed to the bizarre hodge-podge of the original.

### Notes and References

1. ↑ *Frank Angones and the Suspenders of Disbelief* has hinted that the direct *DT17* counterpart to the original Don Karnage may actually have been active in the 1930's, and that this Don Karnage is his descendant.

Donald Dubh

**Donald Dubh MacDonald** was a male anthropomorphic duck.

## Description

A member of the clan MacDonald nicknamed “Donald Dubh” (“Black Donald”), this namesake and possible ancestor of Donald Duck became famous for resisting attempts by King James IV to bring order to his provinces, to the point of burning down the city of Inverness in 1501 to show to the King that he meant business. Imprisoned in 1506, he managed to bust out of jail in 1546 and immediately returned to his fighting liftestyle; he died in Ireland in a futile attempt to find more land to conquer there.

## Behind the scenes

Donald Dubh appears in the 1975 story *The Famous Donalds*. Black Donald McDuck was likely named after him. He is, at any rate, based on a historical figure whose name is more often spelled Domhnall Dubh.

## Description

*Double-O-Duck*, which existed inside Funso's Fun Zone in a special room by 2020, is an augmented reality game themed around spy-fi.

In 2020, Launchpad McQuack and Dewey Duck were abducted by F.O.W.L. while playing the game and experienced a real-life spy adventure (during which Launchpad took on a hyperintelligent persona known himself as “Double-O-Duck”, previously Launchpad's handle inside the game) which they never realised was anything more than Levels 2 and 3 of the game.

## Behind the scenes

*Double-O-Duck* is central to the events of the 2020 Season 3 episode of *DuckTales 2017*, *Double-O-Duck in You Only Crash Twice*.

## Description

The leader of the dreaded Sky Pirates and commander of a massive airship called the *Iron Vulture*, Don Karnage is a good pilot and a skilled swordsman, but has such a bloated ego and a bizarre accent that he still comes down as a rather laughable foe. A pirate and proud of it, Karnage has been known both to lead air raids and to try to rob cargo planes, most often his archenemy Baloo's *Sea Duck*.

## Gallery

***Scrooge McDuck Wiki*** has a collection of images and media related to ***Don Karnage***.
## Behind the scenes

Don Karnage was created as a recurring antagonist for *TaleSpin*, first appearing in *Plunder and Lightning*.

### Development

In early story development for *TaleSpin*, the Sky Pirates were not stated to have a particular leader; the only character standing out among the pirates would have been an anthropomorphic poodle with a particularly wretched and cruel disposition, but he did not appear to be the leader of the crew.

After some tergiversations, it was decided to create a leader character, somewhat inspired by the Dread Pirate Roberts from *The Princess Bride*, who was dubbed the Dread Pirate Anthrax and was conceived of as having a British accent. Jim Cummings, already cast as Louie, took the part and decided to give him a wacky foreign accent ("part Spanish, part Creole, part Ricky Ricardo") to make him stand out from most other fictional pirates.

Shortly after, Disney lawyers objected to the use of the name Anthrax, fearing that a Canadian rock band by that name would sue them for copyright infringement (this is widely considered to be a misguided and paranoid fear, considering that anthrax is, in fact, a word to begin with). Tying back into Cummings' flamboyantly foreign portrayal, the character was renamed Don Karnage.

The character's design was the work of Leonard Smith, who had work from a succinct description of "a suave pirate and literal Air Wolf". Being rather new to character design, Smith came up with a rather unique look that has been criticized by other professionals from a technical standpoint (Karnage's "Mickey Mouse nose" is seen as amateurish, and he stands out from all other characters in *TaleSpin* for wearing shoes), but became iconic among fans. There was, however, some debate on Karnage's species, with even some merchandise labeling him as a fox (instead of a red wolf), until Smith put the matter to rest with an interview on *Sullivanet*.

### Voice Actors

* Jim Cummings (*TaleSpin*, *Raw Toonage*, *Plane Crazy*, *Disney Afternoon: 20 Years Later*)
* Jaime Camil (*DuckTales 2017*, actually an alternate version of the character)

But as they begin to set sail away from the island, they find that a real chest of pirate gold has become hooked on their anchor. As they carry it through the village, Donald decides to get revenge on Pete, and thanks him for the map while handing him a gold doubloon. Pete, now convinced that the map is real, rushes off to do some treasure hunting of his own.

## Behind the scenes

*Donald Duck and the Buried Treasure* was originally released as part of the *Mickey and Minnie Storybook Collection* in 2015.

Donald's 313 appears in the story, and, interestingly, does so with its European color scheme (blue body) rather than its more common American one (wholly red). This color scheme is used several other times in other stories throughout the book.
Dr Jeckle and Mr Heckle

**Dr Jeckle** and **Mr Heckle** are a duo of male anthropomorphic magpies.

## Description

These two cynical and mischievous characters with kleptomaniac tendencies are the leaders of a nefarious secret organization, the Mob of the Maroon Magpies, which is known for antagonizing the Horde of the Violet Hare. At one point, they had a run-in with Joe Torcivia, who described them as "sly" and urged the readers of his blog to be wary of them. A few months later, Dr Jeckle, and, later, Mr Heckle, visited Scrooge McDuck's Money Bin, with Jeckle getting away with a cup of nutmeg tea filched from Scrooge.

## Behind the scenes

Dr Jeckle and Mr Heckle, created in the comments section of a post on *Joe Torcivia's The Issue At Hand* by Torcivia himself, are the Disneyfied parodies of Heckle and Jeckle, cartoon characters emblematic of the Terrytoons Studios. As presented, the names are also a typical Torcivian pun, in this case mixing the names of Heckle and Jeckle with those of the famous Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, from R.L. Stevenson's short story.

Department of Psychology

## The Department of Psychology

 The **Department of Psychology**, or **Department of Cupid Psychology**, is one of the Departments of the Cupid Intelligence Institute, itself a subdivision of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids.

## Description

Devoted to studying and — if need be — healing the psyches of members of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids, the Department of Psychology of the C.I.I. was founded by Sigmund-1028 after his return from Dimension-1579, based on his study of the Sisters of Juliet. Its staff was subsequently bolstered by Sigmund's successors as supervisors of the asteroid-prison of the Sisters.

## Behind the scenes

The Department of Psychology was first mentioned in 2019's *Incident Report C179B – “Of Romeos and Juliets”*. It was mentioned again, as the Department of *Cupid* Psychology, in *Magic Trick* later the same year.
Donald Duck's Fore-Feathers

Photograph of the mural in situ.

***Donald Duck's Fore-Feathers*** is a version of the Duck family tree by an unknown author.

## Description

This version of the Duck family tree is really more of a timeline, skipping some generations. Unlike most Duck family trees, this tree leaves out most pre-established Duck relatives, including only Donald, Hortense, Quackmore, Elvira, and Humperdink, while most of the family members are newly created for the tree. The tree includes the following characters:

* Donaldus Anas
* Octavia the Younger
* Petronus Paperino
* Theodora Eirenikes
* Lucretia Mcduckhi
* Marco Paperino
* Donaldi Paperino
* Margarita di Franco
* “Peking” Paolo Paperino
* Isabella Jacholo
* Luigi Paperino
* Cosma Featherina
* Leonardo De Paperino
* Mona Ducka
* Galileo Paperino
* Bianca Capodevin
* Pasquato Paperino
* Giovanna Bacigalupe
* Garibaldi Paperino
* Carina Barone
* Rosabella Paperino
* Clarence Coot
* Grandma Duck (Elvira Coot)
* Humperdink Duck
* Hortense McDuck
* Quackmore Duck
* Donald Duck

## Behind the scenes

This version of the Duck Family Tree was created by an unknown artist and can be seen in Shanghai Disneyland in the restaurant *Il Paperino.*

Interestingly, rather than Clinton Coot and Gertrude Gadwall, Donald's great-grandparents are shown to be Clarence Coot and Rosabella Paperino. This could be explained by assuming that they are, in fact, Donald's great-great uncle and great-great aunt (making Clarence the brother of Clinton) or by assuming that they are his great uncle and great aunt (making Clarence the brother of Elvira). Of some possible relevance is the fact that in one 1990 Italian comic story, Elvira Duck's great-uncle is stated to have been the first man in Duckburg to buy a velocipede — Clarence Coot being here identified as a bicycle mechanic.
Elvira Duck (Sir Donald)

## Elvira Duck(Sir Donald's World)

**Elvira Duck**, better known as **Grandma Duck**, is a female anthropomorphic duck and Elvira Duck's counterpart in Sir Donald's World.

## Description

This version of Grandma Duck had the same biography as the Prime Universe version up till 2002, when her grandson Donald won the lottery, earning twenty million dollars. He subsequently became a successful businessman, trading with his uncle Scrooge, but this turned him greedy and insensitive. Among other things, he tried to force his nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie to go to a School for Young Managers, and they rebelled, deciding to go live with Grandma Duck instead.

## Behind the scenes

This version of Grandma Duck first appeared in 2003 in *Donald Duck and the Alternate Lives*.
Disneyland's 50th - Parks

The short.

***Disneyland's 50th - Parks*** is a possible title for an animated promotional short featuring Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Donald Duck, Huey, Dewey, and Louie Duck, Jiminy Cricket, Dumbo, Cinderella, Stitch, Genie, Iago, Rutt and Tuke, Hyacinth Hippo and her ballet company, and Ben Ali Gator and his dance troupe. Depictions of several other characters can also be briefly spotted.

## Description

The varied attendees of Disneyland's 50th anniversary celebration, having reached the park at last, enjoy the attractions - Mickey, Donald, and Goofy visit the *Tower of Terror*, Dumbo takes a ride on (what else?) *Dumbo the Flying Elephant*, Stitch enjoys *Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin*, Hyacinth Hippo and Ben Ali Gator (along with their respective dance troupes) take a spin on the *Mad Tea Party*, and Jiminy Cricket buys a balloon - and then floats away with it. Finally, everyone gathers together to watch the fireworks show.

### Continuity

* Mickey Mouse, Goofy and Donald Duck's slapstick experience as they ride the *Twilight Zone Tower of Terror* ride is shot identically to that of the Queen of Heart's and Ursula's in *Disney Villains Celebrate Halloween at Disney Parks!* (2010), and of Phineas, Gus, and Ezra in *Haunt Both Parks* (2015). A short clip of the same scene can also be seen in *Buzz Explores* (2012).

## Behind the scenes

*Disneyland's 50th - Parks* was released in 2005, to promote Disneyland's 50th anniversary. An alternate version of the commercial also exists, *Disneyland's 50th - Parks 2*. There is also a third version of the commercial, however, as this one simply re-arranges and mixes some of the scenes from the two other versions and changes the music, while adding no new scenes, it is not notable enough for a page of its own.
Donald Gets a Kick out of Sailing

The only page of the story.

***Donald Gets a Kick out of Sailing*** is a comic one-pager created by an unknown writer and artist (who may have been one and the same). It features Donald Duck and Goofy.

## Description

Donald Duck suggests he and Goofy "play sailor" by attaching sails to Goofy's shoes and setting them on a small pond. Goofy, outraged that Donald's idea of "playing sailor" involves everyone staying on dry land, kicks the duck into the water.

## Behind the scenes

This story was only ever printed in English in the British *Donald Duck Annual* #1.
Doctor Zantaf

**Doctor Zantaf** is an anthropomorphic bird (his exact species is unknown).

## Description

Doctor Zantaf is a genius mad scientist who, like so many others, wishes to take over the world. He has a passion for snakes, though this is unrelated to his main talent, which is to build various machines and robots. He has also notably invented a spray that makes people generous, which he tried to use to get all of Scrooge McDuck's fortune, and a time machine which he tested on Donald Duck, as well as an army of robot servants.

## Behind the scenes

Doctor Zantaf first appeared in 1968 in *"Tycoonraker!" or "From Zantaf with Lumps"*, and, due to very good feedback from the readers, has become a recurring character.
Donald Duck's Big Family

***Donald Duck's Big Family*** (an unofficial direct translation of the French title ***La Grande Famille de Donald Duck***) is an expanded remake of Don Rosa's notorious version of the Duck Family Tree, done in the form of a large illustration. It features Sir Stuft McDuck, Sir Swamphole McDuck, Sir Eider McDuck, Sir Quackly McDuck, Malcolm McDuck, Seafoam McDuck, Sir Roast McDuck, Molly Mallard, Titus McDuck, Quagmire McDuck, Angus McDuck, Jake McDuck, Fergus McDuck, Downy O'Drake, Matilda McDuck, Scrooge McDuck, Hortense McDuck, Quackmore Duck, Della Duck, Donald Duck, Mr Duck, Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck, Goosetave Gander, Pintail Duck, Humperdink Duck, Elvira Duck, Daphne Duck, Gladstone Gander, Lulubelle Loon, Eider Duck, Fethry Duck, Whitewater Duck, Clinton Coot, Gertrude Gadwall, Fanny Coot, Luke Goose, Gus Goose, Gretchen Grebe, Cuthbert Coot, Cornelius Coot, Daisy Duck, April, May and June, Magica De Spell, John D. Rockerduck, Gyro Gearloose, Goldie O'Gilt, Magica De Spell, and, off the tree itself, Flintheart Glomgold and the Beagle Boys.

## Description

This version of the Duck Family Tree is based on Don Rosa's version but contains numerous expansions, some of them seemingly based on making too much of minor branches present in the art of Rosa's tree which were not meant to signify anything genealogical, but were interpreted differently by the anonymous authors of *this* tree. Most notably, Gertrude Gadwall is now a descendant of Pintail Duck.

The detail of John D. Rockerduck being a descendant of Cornelius Coot in his own right is lifted from Johannes A. Grote's Duck Family Tree, and the common fan theory of Gyro Gearloose being related to Gretchen Grebe's side of the family somehow is confirmed. April, May and June and Daisy Duck are also included in the tree near to Huey, Dewey and Louie's father, but their exact relationship is not clarified. More surprisingly, Magica De Spell appears in the tree near the branch of Downy O'Drake, Scrooge's mother.

Also featured in the illustration, though with no obvious family relationship posited, are Flintheart Glomgold and the Beagle Boys. Goldie O'Gilt also appears in a location suggesting her romantic entanglement with Scrooge McDuck.

## Behind the scenes

This version of the Duck Family Tree was released in December of 2019 in the French magazine *Donald, Mickey & Cie.* #1.
Drake Mallard (2017 Continuum)

**Drake Mallard** is an anthropomorphic duck and the counterpart of Drake Mallard in the 2017 Continuum.

## Description

Like Launchpad McQuack, Drake Mallard grew up watching *Darkwing Duck* and admiring its star Jim Starling. For the young, bullied Drake, Starling's portrayal of Darkwing inspired a never quit attitude that he hoped to inspire in future generations. By adulthood, Drake had become president of the Darkwing Duck Fan Club, assembling a considerable collection of merchandise in the process. He was eventually cast to play the role of his hero in Alistair Boorswan's *Darkwing: First Darkness*, a film based on his beloved childhood series.

As filming on the picture was wrapping up, Drake had the chance to meet his idol, Jim Starling, at a public appearance, only to find him aloof. Their relationship only got worse when Starling, learning of the film, discovered that Drake had been cast in his place, leading him to actually attack Drake. Starling went so far as to enlist Launchpad, who had also been at Starling's event, in an attempt to sabotage the film. However, after getting a good look at Drake's collection, Launchpad and the young actor began to bond, and the two decided to try and persuade Starling to help with the film.

Unfortunately, Starling responded by attacking Drake again, locking him in a shed, and taking his place on set. When the deranged actor went out of control, Drake appeared in his own Darkwing costume, drawing Starling's attention so that Launchpad could run damage control and all bystanders could escape safely. Starling gained the upper hand in the showdown, but Drake and Launchpad were able to prompt him to think on his actions. However, he later seemingly died after saving Launchpad and the film was cancelled. Questioning what he would do without the film role, Drake was intrigued when Launchpad suggested that he become Darkwing Duck for real.

## Behind the scenes

The rebooted version of Drake Mallard debuted May 17, 2019 in *The Duck Knight Returns*.

### Voice Actor

* Chris Diamantopoulos (*DuckTales 2017*)
Doeg

**Doeg** is a male zoaite.

## Description

An influential daredevil from the planet Zoa, Doeg was the creator and leader of a movement that swept through Zoaite society, the Leapin' Lizard Hunters, who made the hunting and eradication of Leaping Lizards aboard Gravicycles their main hobby to get away from the dredge of their urbanized life. As one might expect, Doeg and his inner circle were an immoral, sadistic bunch, with them not blinking an eyelid at their leader's suggestion to disintegrate two Earthlings upon whom stumbled while on a hunt.

However, Doeg and the Lizard Hunters' careless actions almost led to the downfall of Zoaite society, as the Leaping Lizards were key to the delicate ecosystem balance which protected Zoaite crops from rampaging Airiodactyls. Mickey Mouse, Goofy and Arbol the Naturalist eventually exposed these dire consequences, destroying most Gravicycles on Zoah and banning the hunting of Leaping Lizards.

## Behind the scenes

Doeg is the main antagonist of the 1980 story *Mission to Planet Zoa*.

## The Doctor's Castle

 The **Doctor's Castle** is a repurposed medieval castle, formerly inhabited by the Mad Doctor.

## Description

This looming medieval castle built atop a skull-like cliff, which may have been built by the Mad Duke of Duckburg, was reinvested in 1933 by the mysterious Mad Doctor. By then, it had come to be haunted by the Skeletons, who, having nothing else to do, did the Doctor's bidding. The Doctor repaired the castle and added such modern elements as a doorbell, electric lighting and an elevator, on top of his numerous devices. What became of the Castle after the Doctor was transported to Wasteland is unknown; it is possible the Skeletons remained in what had become their home, or it might have returned to its abandoned state.

## Behind the scenes

This castle was only ever seen in 1933 in *The Mad Doctor*. In many ways, its appearance foreshadows that of Grimhilde's Castle, created a few years later.
Diamond Dick

**Diamond Dick** is an anthropomorphic dog.

## Description

Diamond Dick is a jewel thief who tried to steal the treasure of Sir Quackly McDuck that was hidden in the Castle McDuck, and which he knew about from his third wife, who was a McDuck on her great grandfathers side. After he fooled Scrooge McDuck, who was searching for the treasure by pretending to be the caretaker Scottie McTerrier, who had passed a few months previously, he got hold of the treasure with an invisibility spray he stole from a foreign spy during "the war" (presumably World War II), but was caught in the act.

## Behind the scenes

Diamond Dick first appeared in *The Old Castle's Secret* by Carl Barks.
Donald Duck and the Witch

Cover for the story.

***Donald Duck and the Witch*** is an illustrated written story. It features Donald Duck, Witch Hazel, and Huey, Dewey, and Louie.

## Description

Huey, Dewey and Louie see Witch Hazel flying by on her broomstick, but their uncle Donald doesn't believe them, because he says that he does not believe there are any witches. The nephews follow Hazel back to her house in the woods, where she agrees to help them convince Donald that witches are real. On Halloween night, Hazel comes to Donald's house and casts a few spells, then takes him off on a broomstick ride to her house. There, he, Hazel, and Huey, Dewey, and Louie have a Halloween feast. Donald decides that he still doesn't believe in witches, but if there were any, he'd want them to be just like Hazel.

## Behind the scenes

*Donald Duck and the Witch* was published in 1953 as a Little Golden Book. The story was written by Annie North Bedford, a pseudonym of the Little Golden Book series' editor. As in all Little Golden Books featuring the nephews and written by Bedford, Huey's name is misspelled "Hughie".

According to the title page, the story was based on *Trick or Treat* (incorrectly referred to as "Tricks or Treats"), although the plots of the two do not have much in common beyond the cast and the plot device of Witch Hazel trying to prove her powers are real to Donald Duck with the backing of the triplets.
Disney's Water Parks

***Disney's Water Parks*** is a possible title for an animated promotional short featuring Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Minnie Mouse, Flounder, Sebastian, Ursula, Captain Hook, Princess Aurora, Snow White, Cinderella, Stitch, Crush, Squirt, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck, and Dory.

## Description

A varied assortment of odd characters enjoy a day at the water park - until they are informed that only humans are allowed to swim in the pool.

## Behind the scenes

*Disney's Water Parks* was released on the official YouTube channel of Attraction Tickets Direct in 2011.

Strangely, although all of the characters are forced to leave following the announcement that only humans can swim there, four of the characters present (Captain Hook, Princess Aurora, Snow White, and Cinderella) *are* in fact humans. It is possible that the short is using the logic that any animated characters are considered "Toons" and thus not considered human no matter their actual species.
Disneyland's 50th - Disneyland Resort 50th Anniversary Homecoming

The short

Disneyland's 50th - ***Disneyland Resort 50th Anniversary Homecoming*** is a possible title for an animated promotional short featuring Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Donald Duck, Huey, Dewey, and Louie Duck, Dumbo, Genie, Iago, Stitch, Cinderella, Hyacinth Hippo and her ballet company, Ben Ali Gator and his dance troupe, Rutt and Tuke, and Herbie the Love Bug.

## Descriptions

It's the 50th anniversary of Disneyland, and a varied assortment of characters are attempting to make it to the park in time for the celebration - but Mickey and Goofy are having trouble with the map, Donald's car is far too crowded, Rutt and Tuke are worried that they won't make it in time, Stitch has been pulled over for speeding, and Genie and Iago are caught at a toll booth without any money!

## Behind the scenes

Disneyland's 50th - *Disneyland Resort 50th Anniversary Homecoming* was released in 2005, to promote Disneyland's 50th anniversary.
Donald-Robots

The first Donald-Robot.

The **Donald-Robots** were an army of automata created by Donald Duck.

## Description

Created by Donald Duck at the insistent request of Saturnian dictator Rebo (who mistakenly thought Donald was a great engineering genius), the Donald-Robots were made in Donald's own image based on the design of a mechanical toy soldier once owned by his nephews (as Donald had memorized its internal design after cracking it open in a fit of anger).

Though functional enough to fool Rebo at first, the so-called robots were devoid of any intelligence, and crashed every single ship in Rebo's attack armada, thus ending the Saturnian invasion of Jupiter before it had even begun. In the confusion, Donald escaped the planet aboard a small unwatched shuttle. The fiasco remained a sore spot for Rebo ever after, and he soon sought to erase it by creating an army of weaponized toys, a strange and fearsome idea which he saw as making something worthwhile out of Donald's trickery.

## Behind the scenes

The Donald-Robots appear in the climax of the 1960 story *Uncle Scrooge's Money Rocket*.

Naturally, they also appear in its novelizations; the 1973 *Scrooge in Space* even mentions an explanation for why Donald remembered the mechanism of the original windup doll enough to reproduce it, stating that Donald cracked the doll open during a fit of anger caused by outrage that his nephews had bought a doll caricature of himself. However, the (anonymous) illustrations of the novel strangely overlooked that the robots were meant to resemble Donald, giving them a completely different appearance, and this in spite of the text clearly mentioning the likeness.
Duckburg Burrow Number 13

The "skeleton crew" of Burrow Number 13.

**Duckburg Burrow Number 13** is one of the Junior Woodchucks' many subdivisions.

## Description

Overseen by the stick-in-the-mud Exalted Grand Marshal of Duckburg Burrow Number 13, and often led on actual field trips by Grand Mogul Philodemus Gentlefogg, Duckburg Burrow Number 13 is the thirteenth Junior Woodchucks troop in Duckburg and, as such, one of the most prestigious Woodchuck divisions worldwide. In part thanks to being direct descendants of Woodchucks founder Casey Coot, but also thanks to their undeniable talent, it is to this troop that Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck belong as Ten-Star Generals.

## Behind the scenes

First identified as "Duckburg Burrow Number 13" in October of 1951 in *Ten-Star Generals*, Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck's Junior Woodchucks troop is a recurring element in Junior Woodchucks stories, with its own nameless recurring cast of familiar faces, including a young pig and a young wolf. Newton Gearloose and Li'l Bad Wolf are also occasionally shown as belonging to the same troop as Huey, Dewey and Louie.
Donald Bane

**Donald Bane** (***Donald Ban*** in the original French) was a male anthropomorphic duck.

## Description

The son of the King of Scotland, Duncan I, this Donald (a namesake and possible ancestor of the modern-day Donald Duck) stayed quiet for most of his life only to take over Scotland in his old age, hence the nickname of "Donald Bane", which meant "Donald the White" in Gaelic and referred to his distinctive white hair.

Donald Bane took the crown by having his nephew Duncan II assassinated; his ill-acquired reign did not last long, as Duncan's brother Edgar, with the help of the English, soon deposed him and took the crown for himself. Not showing himself a particularly merciful monarch, Edgar had his treacherous uncle blinded and imprisoned for life.

## Behind the scenes

Donald Bane appears in the 1975 story *The Famous Donalds*.

He is based on the historical King Donald III of Scotland, nicknamed "Donald Bane" or "Donald Bain" and who appears in William Shakespeare's *Macbeth* under the name of Donalbain.
Doctor Frankenollie

**Dr Frankenollie** is an anthropomorphic primate and mad doctor.

## Description

In 1995, this manic mad scientist  owned an enormous castle in downtown Mouseton. In the basement there, he had been constructing an enormous monster known as Julius, as well as a brain-switching machine, and he put out an advertisement in the newspaper offering a job. The ad was answered by Mickey Mouse, who did not realize that the "job" was, in fact, to have his brain switched with that of Julius. Frankenollie successfully completed the experiment, however, the resulting surge of electricity seemingly killed the doctor, turning him to a pile of dust and bones. After a series of mishaps, Mickey switched his brain back, and made Julius tow him and Minnie Mouse to Hawaii.

Although Frankenollie was by all appearances dead after the brain-switcher reduced him to dust, he seemed to have had some safeguards in place, as he soon returned to plague Mouseton. After this apparent resurrection, the doctor began creating an fleet of robotic reconstructions of famous heroes and villains, dubbed Tronics, and having them fight each other, presumably for his own amusement.

Eventually Frankenollie decided to enact his revenge on Mickey Mouse for ruining his plans and freeing his monster, by attempting to infect his computer using various computer viruses of his own invention. What he attempted to gain through this trickery (beyond ruining Mickey's computer) is unknown.

Also unknown are Frankenollie's whereabouts currently, as he has not been seen since the early 21st century.

## Behind the scenes

Dr. Frankenollie first appeared in *Runaway Brain* in 1995. Although this was his only film appearance, Frankenollie remained moderately popular through the late 20th and early 21st centuries, even having a figure in the Walt Disney Classics Collection (a series of collectible sculpted figures) and a Tsum-Tsum version of himself in the popular Tsum-Tsum series of toys.

Interestingly, Frankenollie's role was originally meant to be given to Professor Ecks, however, this was vetoed by Disney higher-ups, possibly due to the fact that Frankenollie is reduced to ash in the film, a fate that Disney might not have wanted to befall one of its oldest villains.

Frankenollie has appeared in Disney comics; however, it was not in a new story, but rather a comic remake of *Runaway Brain*.

Frankenollie's name is both a wordplay on that of Frankenstein's and a reference to the important Disney animators Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston.

Dirty Bill

**Dirty Bill** (real name unknown) is an anthropomorphic bulldog.

## Descriptio

Dirty Bill is a bandit who, in 1935, was "wanted dead or alive" for miscellaneous robbery. He is, indeed, a ruthless bandit, and has no qualms about attempting to injure or extort money from young children. He is afraid of water, as he heard it will make him "come clean" — a misunderstanding which betrays a low education, and, possibly, intelligence.

## Behind the scenes

Dirty Bill first appeared in the 1935 Silly Symphony *The Robber Kitten*.
