All-Star Continuum

The All-Star Continuum is an alternate universe.

## Description

The All-Star Continuum is a very strange universe in which inanimate objects in the form of living things can come to life randomly. This is not limited to just physical objects, but also living things in comic books or records. Among these objects, counterparts of Huey, Dewey, and Louie can be seen, although it is not shown what objects they formed from.

## Behind the scenes

The All-Star Continuum made it's only appearance in the Anti-Drug Television Special *Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue* in 1990. Although characters from other franchises appear, their universes cannot be said to exist in the "Duck/Mouse Multiverse" (other than that of the Muppets, who have appeared in other media featuring Mickey and Friends) because they are all formed from merchandise from their respective franchises, and so only exist as fictional characters in this universe.
A Human Story

***A Human Story*** is an audio story of unknown authorship, released in 1969 on American radio to promote the opening of *The Haunted Mansion*. It features the Ghost Host and the Ghost Kid.

## Plot

A Ghost Kid asks the Ghost Host to tell him “a human story”. The Host tells him of the haunting of the Haunted Mansion and how it is now visited every day by hundreds of curious humans. The Kid bashfully asks the Host if he believes in the existence of humans, to which the Host respons: “I don't know — but I *do* believe in Disneyland”.

### References

* The Ghost Kid, who appears never to have encountered any living humans, calls the Ghost Host “daddy”.

## Behind the scenes

*A Human Story* was the first of a series of radio spots released in 1969 to promote the opening of the *Haunted Mansion* ride.
Arnold Duck

**Arnold Duck** was an anthropomorphic duck.

## Description

The likely deceased, fez-wearing Arnold Duck was Donald Duck's great-uncle. Donald owned an old painting of Arnold Duck, which Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck found rather depressing. They found however that, when turned upside down, the picture now seemed to depict a smiling scarf-wearing youngster, much to their delight.

## Behind the scenes

Arnold Duck was only ever seen in the 1998 French one-pager *The Right Side*.

He might be the grandfather of Hackney McWebfoot, who is said to be Donald's second cousin and does somewhat resemble Arnold.
77-334

**77-334** is an anthropomorphic dog of unknown gender.

## Description

A cousin of 47-521, 77-334 was one of the hundreds of Beagle Boys who swarmed Duckburg when they heard tell that their local relatives had finally taken control of Scrooge McDuck's fortune, wanting to get a piece of the pie. Living in Leavenworth, they drove from there to Duckburg for the occasion.

## Behind the scenes

77-334 is mentioned in the 1975 comic story *Scrooge For A Day*. They are presumably one of the background Beagles seen later in the story, but which one is unknown.

A One-Man Show

***A One-Man-Show*** is a comic strip written by Bob Foster, penciled by Bill Langley and Tony Strobl, and inked by Langley. It features Donald Duck.

## Plot

Donald Duck's project of a one-man show ends up a much more literal *one-man*-show than he meant for it to be…

### References

* Donald Duck's one-man show was meant to be performed at the Duckburg Gallery.

## Behind the scene

This comic strip was only ever printed in English in 1987 in a variety of American newspapers.
Acquaintanceship-982

**Acquaintanceship-982** is a Clockwork Cherub.

## Description

A Mark 10 member of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids, Acquaintanceship-982 is the leader and founding member of the Blue Feather, the Cupids' lesser squadron of flying explorers and fighters (as opposed to the elite Scarlet Wings). Having founded the Blue Feather to prove himself after he was rejected from the Scarlet Wings, Acquaintanceship never gives up, even when he really should — but his group are rarely given important missions anyway. Nevertheless, during the Crew's first encounter with the Faction of the Fooling Fish, he was notably the first one to tell the Fish that from the Cupids' point of view, their "pranks" were not actually all that funny.

## Behind the scenes

Acquaintanceship-982 was introduced in the 2019 short story *Cupid Fact File No. 444 — The Faction of the Fooling Fish*.
Alice's Day at Sea

A still from the short showing Alice in her dream.

***Alice's Day at Sea*** is a theatrical cartoon short directed by Walt Disney. It features Alice.

## Plot

Alice spends her day on the beach with her pet dog. After an old salt tells her a tale of a giant squid sinking his old ship, she falls asleep and dreams of sinking to the bottom of the ocean where she meets a colorful cast of cartoony fish, such as a family of literal "cat-fish", a threatening octopus, and a hungry giant herring.

## Behind the scenes

This cartoon short was released in 1925 as a silent film and later re-released with sound. It is the first short in the *Alice Comedies* series (second if one chooses to count *Alice's Wonderland*).
Abercrombie's Owner

**Abercrombie's Owner** is or was a human being.

## Description

By the time Yellow Beak and the Seven Dwarfs arrived in Nothing Atoll, a human treasure-seeker who knew pirate treasure was buried *somewhere* on the isle, but lacked Yellow Beak's map, had been living there in castaway-like conditions for ages, with only his cat Abercrombie for company. After the newcomers found the treasure, Dopey traded it with the old man for his cat, whom Dopey used to dispose of Grimhilde (who had transformed herself into a rat).

## Behind the scenes

Abercrombie's Owner appears in the 1949 story *The Seven Dwarfs and the Pirate*.
Alice's Fishy Story

***Alice's Fishy Story*** is a theatrical cartoon short directed by Walt Disney. It features Alice, her mother, Tubby O'Brien and Julius the Cat.

## Plot

Alice, after craftily getting out of an unwanted piano lesson, sneaks away to the river with the other neighborhood kids to spend the day fishing. While there, she recounts a possibly-untrue story of how she and her friend Julius "saved all the Eskimos" in the North Pole by solving a fishing crisis.

## Behind the scenes

This cartoon short was released as a silent in 1924. It is the fourth short in the *Alice Comedies* series (fifth if one chooses to count *Alice's Wonderland*).
Ally-1243

## Ally-1242

 **Ally-1243** is a male Mark 13 Clockwork Cherub.

## Description

A member of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids, the eternally-helpful, and more than a little naive, Ally-1243 was assigned to its most looked-down-upon suborganization, the Blue Feather backup taskforce led by Acquaintanceship-982. He later befriended Conquest-932, seemingly obvious to the older Cupid's villainous tendencies and simply wanting to lend a hand to a fellow Cupid who was down on his luck due to his latest wicked schemes having failed.

## Behind the scenes

One of the minor recurring characters of the *Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids* series, Ally-1232 first appeared in 2019 in *Acquaintanceship-982 and the Missing Mail Mystery*.
Al-Ghander

**Al-Ghander** was a male anthropomorphic gander.

## Description

Al-Ghander was a wealthy and largely decadent lord who lived across the sea in the days when the Caliphate was ruled by Sultan Scrooge Al-Duck. It was on her way to an arranged marriage with Al-Ghander that Scrooge Al-Duck's ward, Deysi, was kidnapped and held for ransom by the Bey A'Ghel Pirates — a ransom which Al-Ghander claimed was too high for even he to pay. Deysi was subsequently rescued by Sinbad Duck and fell in love with him; unlike Scrooge Al-Duck, Al-Ghander took the news quite well, even promising to send them a wedding gift, suggesting he'd never been too invested in the marriage either.

## Behind the scenes

Al-Ghander appears in the 1985 story *The Adventures of Sinbad Duck*. He is obviously a historical counterpart of Gladstone Gander, the story being a Great Parody; although he is not related to Donald or Scrooge's counterparts, he still serves the role of romantic foil to Donald/Sinbad in relation to Daisy/Deysi.

The fumes had a strange effect on her and turned her into a cleaning-obsessed villain. She was later recruited by F.O.W.L. for their dastardly plans. She hates and is even afraid of dirt. She has a sister named Ample Grime, also a F.O.W.L. agent. She teamed up with Steelbeak once because he pretended to be in love with her. She is voiced by Mitzi McCall.

## Ducktales/Darkwing Duck Comics 2011

Ammonia with Magica De Spell, Cinnamon Teal and Camille Chameleon formed together the League of Eve-il! They are in an alliance with The Phantom Blot, The Beagle Boys, and The Fearsome Four (Megavolt, Bushroot, Quackerjack, and The Liquidator). They are later joined by Nega Duck.

24-628

**24-628** is a male anthropomorphic dog.

## Description

A cousin of the Duckburg trio of Beagle Boys, 24-628, who dresses in orange with a baseball cap of the same colour, was among the relatives of the Duckburg Trio who came to visit the Duckburg trio upon learning they had taken control of Scrooge McDuck's fortune.

## Behind the scenes

24-628 briefly appears in the 1975 comic story *Scrooge For A Day*.
13th Hour

***13th Hour***, also known as ***Awaken the Swinging Wake***, was a live show based on *The Haunted Mansion*, part of its 50th anniversary celebrations — more specifically, its opening. Performed in the *Rivers of America* ride, it combined projection of newly-created animation onto the building itself with live elements on stage. It featured the Ghost Host, Madame Leota, Horace the Caretaker, the Demon Hand and several other, nameless ghosts from the Haunted Mansion.

## Plot

The anniversary of Haunted Mansion's opening to the public is nigh. After the Mansion's demonic Grandfather Clock manifests, huge and impossible, in the starless sky, and rings thirteen times, the Horace, wanders through the fog, warning the watching crowd that supernatural horrors are a foot tonight, on a scale poor old Horace hasn't witnessed since the Mansion first opened fifty years ago! He is soon proven right as Madame Leota and the Ghost Host summon all 999 Happy Haunts to open the festivities, with Leota even materializing in full human form and performing her own version of the Mansion's anthem with a backup chorus of spooks…

### Continuity

* The earlier performance *Happy Haunts Spirited Soirée* (2019) takes place just before *13th Hour*, and ended with the Ghost Host telling the guests to proceed over to the *Rivers of America*.

## Songs

* *Grim Grinning Ghosts* (new arrangement)

## Behind the scenes

*13th Hour* was a special event performed only once, in 2019. Among the various video captures of it, three were posted by Laughing Place, WDW News Today and DAPS MAGIC.

As is often the case with Disneyland live performances, no cast or crew is credited; the Ghost Host is unmistakably voiced by Corey Burton, but the voices of Leota and Horace are at present unknown to the Wiki, as are the names of any of the performers, directors and special-effect artists.
Bowwing

**Bowwing** are a rocket-building company.

## Description

In 1958, when the Rat Scientists were commissioned by the Beagle Boys to create a custom rocket for them, they used top-secret plans stolen from, among others, Bowwing.

## Behind the scenes

Bowwing's name is glimpsed on stolen plans in the 1958 story *The Twenty-Four Carat Moon*. It is transparently a pun on the real-life aircraft builder Boeing.
Agent Noble X. Ample

**The Secret Service Agent** is a minor character who appears in "Serum to Codfish Cove".

An agent of the secret service, who is after the spies, visits Huey, Dewey and Louie. He explains the situation to them and they offer to recover the stolen blueprints and take the serum to its destination. The agent agrees and deputizes them as secret agents.

Later, the kids find their tired uncle sleeping in the snow outside Codfish Cove and the spy ready to attack him. They knock the spy out, replace the blueprints with the serum and wake **Donald** with a gunshot. **Donald** manages to arrive to the hospital.
Anna Jones

**Anna Jones** was a human woman.

## Description

Well-dressed, ever-proper, and competent, Anna Jones was the devoted chambermaid of Ravenswood Manor, and reportedly had an affair with her womanizing employer, Henry Ravenswood, although Henry was married, if a mocking inscription on her tombstone is to be believed. Having died alongside her manservant brother Jasper in the 1860 earthquake that swallowed up Phantom Canyon, she was buried near him, just outside the Manor, in Boot Hill Cemetery.

## Behind the scenes

Anna Jones's tombstone is seen in the ride *Phantom Manor*, opened in 1992.

She is set to appear in the flesh in the short film *The Raven* (2019).

It is possible, though unconfirmed, that Anna and Jasper were related to the later-day Thunder Mesa outlaw Milo Jones.

### Portrayers

* Mathilde Collet (*The Raven*; unreleased)
Alice in the Wooly West

The short's title card.

***Alice in the Wooly West*** is a theatrical cartoon short directed by Walt Disney. It features Alice, Julius the Cat and Peg-Leg Pete.

## Plot

Alice and Julius have taken a trip to the Far West; Julius has donned full cow-boy garb, riding a horse ahead of the stagecoach containing Alice and doing lasso tricks as he rides. Their fun is interrupted by Peg-Leg Pete and a gang of mice, who hold up the stagecoach. Recognizing his enemy Alice, Pete attempts to kidnap her, and Julius once again comes to the rescue.

## Behind the scenes

This cartoon short was released in 1926. It is the thirty-third short in the *Alice Comedies* series (thirty-fourth if one chooses to count *Alice's Wonderland*).
176-176

**176-176**, who wears the serial number **176-167**, is a male anthropomorphic dog

## Description

176-176 is one of the main Duckburg Beagle Boys who usually cannot be distinguished from one another (though he is seemingly the youngest of that particular bunch of siblings). With them, he committed numerous crimes, mostly revolving around the Beagles' goal of robbing Scrooge McDuck's Money Bin.

In 2003, he suddenly fell in love with Emily Quackfaster, Scrooge's middle-aged endlessly-resourceful secretary. Emily came to return his affections and began dating him, making him promise to forswear his life of crime and villainy. The two had a brief but blissful romance, which was cruelly terminated by Blackheart Beagle's greedy schemings; Blackheart and two of 176's brothers tricked 176-176 into using his relationship with Miss Quackfaster to get into the Money Bin.

They succeeded in taking out several billion dollars, and Miss Quackfaster, at first, refused to believe 176-176 had not arranged the whole thing with his brothers from the start, tricking her into a false romance just for the burglary's sake. In an attempt to make things right, 176-176 stole the money back from his brothers and brought it back to Emily, for her to take back to the Bin. He left a note wherein he explained that he could neither ask her to trust him after this blunder, nor fully forgive her for judging him so quickly, but that she would always have a spot in his heart; it seemed clear enough that the feeling was mutual.

Following this misadventure, 176-176 reintegrated the ranks of the regular Beagle Boys and returned to crime, though his heart was ever after not into it whenever he had to attack the Money Bin in the presence of Miss Quackfaster.

## Behind the scenes

As demonstrated by Deadhead-167 who is obviously not the usual 176-167, Beagle Boys can sometimes share or switch prison numbers. Thus, it cannot be said for sure that this particular 176-176 is the same who appears in a given other story where a Beagle Boy has this number; while a large amount of these stories must have featured this Beagle, any ones where he acts too "evil" compared to his characterization in *The Lovebird Jailbird* can be chalked up to being a different 176-176.

By that same token, it is impossible to say for sure in which story this particular Beagle debuted; it is even possible that he was among the Beagles seen in the Beagle Boys' debut *Terror of the Beagle Boys*. His only confirmed appearance is, of course, in the 2003 story *The Lovebird Jailbird*.
Antique Radio

Gyro Gearloose working on the Radio.

 The **Antique Radio** was a machine built by Gyro Gearloose.

## Description

The Antique Radio was a radio designed to allow the listener to hear long-gone radio shows from past decades. Gyro Gearloose was still developing it in 2020, as he had only succeeded in getting it to pick up *The Screamin' Cowboy*.

## Behind the scenes

The Antique Radio makes a brief appearance in the unofficial 2020 story *An Exquisite Duck!*.
A Message From Your Ghost Host

***A Message From Your Ghost*** is a live-action webcast created by Nick Barbera. A bonus episode between the seventh and eighth episodes of Season 1 of the unlicensed *The Haunted Mansion Show*, it features the Ghost Host.

## Description

The Ghost Host, standing outside the Haunted Mansion, apologizes for not having given the mortal followers of his online show any news in a while — because the Mansion has, of all things, been snowed in of late.

## Behind the scenes

*A Message From Your Ghost Host* was part of Season 1 of *The Haunted Mansion Show*. It was released on YouTube on Nick Barbera's own YouTube channel like the rest of Season 1.
Armstrong (2017 Continuum)

**Armstrong** is a sentient robot created in the 2017 Continuum by Gyro Gearloose, and that universe's counterpart to the original Armstrong. At some point after its creation it-like several of Gyro's other inventions-turned evil.

## Behind the scenes

This version of Armstrong was first mentioned in the *DuckTales 2017* episode *The Great Dime Chase*.
All of Scrooge McDuck's Millions

***All of $crooge McDuck's Millions***, also known as ***Uncle Scrooge: My First Millions*** and called ***Tutti i milioni di Paperone*** in the original Italian, is a comic series written by Fausto Vitaliano with a variety of artists.

## Synopsis

The series is bookended by Scrooge McDuck poring over an old photo album of his, discovered by Grandma Duck in her farm's attic, in which each picture was taken as he earned each of his ten first millions. Thus, each chapter sees Scrooge tell the story of how he learned his nth million, thereby explaining each photograph.

## List of episodes

* *My First Million*
* *My Second Million*
* *My Third Million*
* *My Fourth Million*
* *My Fifth Million*
* *My Sixth Million*
* *My Seventh Million*
* *My Eighth Million*
* *My Ninth Million*
* *My Tenth Million*

## Behind the scenes

Though the series' title claims to tell about "all" of Scrooge's millions, it actually focuses on his few first — a discrepancy covered in the series' second American translation, which retitles itself *My First Millions*. It started out as a ten-chapter miniseries (all ten of which have been translated in English), later expanded in the mid-2010's to go up to his 20th million.

### Continuity

The series is largely unconcerned with fitting itself in the chronology of *The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck*; Scrooge going from one to well over twenty million dollars happens in the interval between Chapter 8 and Chapter 9 of Rosa's series, but it's heavily implied that he hadn't left the Klondike during that period, or, at least, not for significant lengths of time. Chapter 11 sees the most "globe-trotting business adventures" from Scrooge, and as such one might be tempted to place it there, but Scrooge is already a billionaire by that point.
228-910

**228-910** is an anthropomorphic dog.

## Description

An uncle of 47-521's, Uncle 228-910 was one of the hundreds of Beagle Boys who swarmed Duckburg when they heard tell that their local relatives had finally taken control of Scrooge McDuck's fortune, wanting to get a piece of the pie. He arrived with "all the nephews and nieces".

## Behind the scenes

Uncle 228-910 is mentioned in the 1975 comic story *Scrooge For A Day*. He is presumably one of the background Beagles seen later in the story, but which one is unknown.
A Clean Sweep

The first page of the story.

***A Clean Sweep*** is a story written by an unknown author and drawn by Tony Strobl. It features Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, and, in his debut, Charlie.

## Description

Daisy's old friend from school, an air corps pilot named Charlie, has come to visit, and Donald begins to feel like a third wheel - especially so after Daisy and Charlie suddenly get engaged. But Donald suspects that Charlie isn't as great as Daisy seems to think - and he aims to prove it.

### References

* Daisy went to school with Charlie, who once told her that he was madly in love with her.
* Charlie is a jet pilot in the air corps, and has been transferred to the Duckburg Air Base.
* Charlie's jet is number "00".
* Daisy does Donald's laundry for him.
* Charlie claims to have once broken the sound barrier.

## Behind the scenes

*A Clean Sweep* was first published in 1964 in *Donald Duck* #93. It was later reprinted in English in *Donald Duck* #227 and in *Walt Disney's Comics Digest* #7.

Charlie is said to be in the air corps, an anachronism if one assumes that the story takes place in the year it was published, as the United States Air Corps was disbanded in 1947. It is possible that Charlie is in fact a member of the Air Force, the successor to the earlier organization.

Adventure Cabana

The **Adventure Cabana** is a small cabin is a small cabin in New Quackmore.

## Description

Located near the New Quackmore Institute, just five hundred yards south of New Quackmore College, the Adventure Cabana was built by Junior Woodchucks founder Clinton Coot in his later life. He filled it with relics of his heroes, the original Three Caballeros, and later willed it to their modern-day heirs — who proved to be Donald Duck, José Carioca and Panchito Pistoles. The Cabana was magically warded to prevent Lord Felldrake from entering; when not inhabited, the Cabana was taken care of by Ari, the Aracuan Bird, whom Clinton had befriended on a journey.

## Behind the scenes

The Adventure Cabana is a major setting throughout the *Legend of the Three Caballeros* series.

## Synopsis

Donald Duck hosts a party in celebration of the Dutch *Donald Duck* comic book's 40th anniversary. But Gladstone Gander is hosting his own party, and the invitations fly all throughout the world. Many characters show up to the party, but they are directed to Donald's party instead, turning it into a huge celebration. And when Neighbor Jones tries to ruin the party, it's up to the crowd to save the party.

## Behind the scenes

This story was first published on October 23rd, 1992, in the Dutch *Donald Duck* #1992X43. It was printed in English in *Walt Disney's Comics and Stories* #715, where, to avoid confusing readers not familiar with the plot device of Donald's story being recounted in comic books in-universe, the *Donald Duck* book was replaced with a "homebrew community paper" created by Humperdink Duck, called the *Webfoot Waddle*, meant to celebrate its *70th* birthday in that story. While the story avoided mentioning it, the date of a 70th anniversary was, of course, an allusion to the anniversary of *Walt Disney's Comics and Stories*.
Aberzombies

The **Aberzombies** are a group of cursed dognoses.

## Description

The Aberzombies are a large group of unfortunate people whom Dr Grut captured and used occult techniques on to remove any trace of independant will within them, turning them into docile slaves. It appears that the "aberzombification" had more than psychological consequences, as it also stopped the Aberzombies from aging, as demonstrated by the immensely old Thaddeus. Following Grut's arrest, the Aberzombies could not be brought back to normal, but they formed a choir and lived as happy a life as they could in their state.

## Behind the scenes

The Aberzombies were only ever seen in the 1943-1944 comic strip serial *The 'Lectro Box*.

Despite Dr Grut's unwillingness to refer to the Aberzombies as proper "zombies" (because they were never dead), their state seems nearly identical to that of Bombie the Zombie, down to empty, pupil-less eyes.
A Helper's Helping Hand

First page of the story.

***A Helper's Helping Hand*** is a comic story written and drawn by Carl Barks. It features Gyro Gearloose and the Little Helper.

## Description

Gyro Gearloose has invented a very efficient portable paint-sprayer and is dying for an opportunity to test it; though his Little Helper insists that painting toys would be its more appropriate use, Gyro rebels against such a "small" purpose — and he couldn't be happier is tasked by the city of Duckburg with repainting Narrows Bridge! But as always, Gyro would have done better to listen to his diminutive robot companion…

## Behind the scenes

This story was first published in 1963 in *Uncle Scrooge* #46. It was reprinted in *Walt Disney Comics Digest* #10, *Walt Disney's Comics and Stories* #526, *Walt Disney's Comics and Stories* #639, in the British *Super Mag* #6 and *The Disney Magazine Annual 1986*, and Australian *Giant* #308, and, of course, in several versions of the *Carl Barks Library*.

Interestingly, Barks here uses the *Daily Dirge* as the exposition-dispensing Duckburg newspaper, instead of the usual *Bugle*.
A Whale of an Adventure

First page of the story.

***A Whale of an Adventure*** is a comic story written by Vic Lockman, penciled by Tony Strobl and inked by Steve Steere. It features Donald Duck and Moby Duck as well as Moby's pet Porpy the Porpoise.

## Plot

Donald Duck, having a vacation on the beach, falls asleep while on a floating inflatable raft. When he wakes up, he is far away from the shore; he happens upon the boat of old whaler Moby Duck, who will only take him in if he agrees to be his ship mate for a day. They soon come across a gigantic whale that, for some unfathomable reason, *moos*. Moby, knowing he could sell such a rare beast to a waterzoo for a tidy sum of money, tries to catch it. However, they soon find that the mysterious creature is hiding something…

## Behind the scenes

The story was the first appearance of recurring Disney character Moby Duck, and also that of his pet Porpy. First printed in March of 1967 in *Donald Duck* #112, it has been, in spite of its historical significance, never reprinted in the United States so far.
Angry Cheese Alien

## The Angry Cheese Alien

The **Angry Cheese Alien**, or **Cheesy**, is a male alien.

## Description

This impish little green humanoid is one of the inhabitants — possibly the only one — of the Green Moon. In 1965, he witnessed the crash-landing of Astro Pooch on his home planet, and Astro's goofy hunger for the cheese that makes up the Green Moon's soil. Something about this must have rubbed Cheesy the wrong way, as he took an instant dislike to Astro, chasing him away by throwing liquefied cheese at him and subsequently becoming his arch-foe.

## Behind the scenes

The Angry Cheese Alien was created, along with his archenemy Astro Pooch, in the eponymous comic strip in 1965 as a background feature in the film *Never a Dull Moment*.
210K Twin-Carbonoid Dualtech Engine

A **210K Twin-Carbonoid Dualtech Engine** is a type of engine used for travel across dimensions.

## Description

A 210K Twin-Carbonoid Dualtech Engine was the spare part Tracker-764 needed to buy from a Goblin Salesman at the Interdimensional Black Market to put his used Void Ship back in working order. He and Darius ended up trading one of Madame Tarsa's cursed ventriloquist-dummies for the Engine when it proved too expensive for them to buy in cash.

## Behind the scenes

The 210K Twin-Carbonoid Dualtech Engine appears in the 2019 story *Misadventures in the Interdimensional Black Market*.
Alistair Neezley

**Alistair Neezley** is a male alien of unclear origins (although understood to be from another universe than the Prime).

## Description

Alistair Neezley is a humanoid and a permanent patron of the Interdimensional Tavern. The owner of a high-quality Void Ship with a remarkably low mileage, he uses it to claim that he is one of the great inter-dimensional adventurers, having travelled to various exotic locales and faced a host of fabulous creatures. In truth it is not actually clear he had actually ever left the Tavern in his life before being drawn into Darius's Christmas revenge scheme in 2019.

## Behind the scenes

Alistair Neezley first appeared in the 2019 *The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids* short story *Misadventures in the Interdimensional Black Market*.
Abercrombie

**Abercrombie** is or was a male non-anthropomorphic cat.

## Description

Abercrombie was the pet and sole companion of a treasure-hunter who came to Nothing Atoll at some point before Yellow Beak found the map to the pirate treasure buried there, and remained there, living as a Crusoe-esque castaway until he could find the treasure through sheer dumb luck. After coming to the Atoll as part of Yellow Beak's crew, Dopey found the treasure and traded Abercrombie for it with the treasure-hunter as part of a plan to rid the Dwarfs of Grimhilde once and for all, as she had followed them to the island in the guise of a rat. Indeed, after Dopey tricked the rat-witch into a burrow where the cat was waiting, Grimhilde appeared to be eaten, and thereby gotten rid of for good, by Abercrombie. However, she somehow later returned to once more trouble the Dwarfs (and others).

## Behind the scenes

Abercrombie appears in the 1949 story *The Seven Dwarfs and the Pirate*.

It features Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck, Scrooge McDuck, the Shy Ghost, the Country Bears (the Five Bear Rugs, in point of fact), and animatronic versions of the triplets, Goofy, Mickey, King Louie, Pluto, Daisy Duck, Rabbit, Winnie the Pooh, Piglet and Minnie Mouse. Cinderella and Davy Crockett are mentioned.

## Plot

Mickey Mouse serves as the guide of a whirlwind tour of Walt Disney World, from the Monorail to the Haunted Mansion!

## Behind the scenes

This short illustrated story was printed by Hallmark, makers of a number of pop-up books.

The version of the Mickey Mouse Revue shown excises a number of characters. It is also notable for establishing the Mickey Mouse Revue's in-universe nature as an animatronics show.
All You Need Is Luck

First page of the story.

***All You Need Is Luck*** is a comic story written by Carol and Pat McGreal and drawn by Miguel Fernandez Martinez. It features Gladstone Gander, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, and, in their debuts, Doctor Yess, his henchpeople and Captain Bird.

## Plot

When Gladstone Gander wins a holiday on the paradise island of Pogo-Pogo, near Tahiti, and Donald Duck follows him there after he chooses to take Daisy Duck along, none of the Duckburgers suspect the truth: this is all a malevolent scheme by the mad scientist Doctor Yess, who has made Pogo Pogo his lair and plots to sever Gladstone from his luck!

## Behind the scenes

This story was first printed in August of 2016 in the Norwegian *Donald Duck & Co* #2016-32, although its INDUCKS code suggests that it had begun production as early as 2010. It has yet to be officially printed in English, but an English scanlation surfaced on the Internet in 2020.
A Forecast For Duckburg

***A Forecast For Duckburg*** is a webcast live-action/animated hybrid short created by broadcast meteorologist Katie Nickolaou as a tribute to *DuckTales 2017*, serving as a trailer of sorts to the then-about-to-be-released last stretch of Season 2. Starring Nickolaou as an in-universe version of herself, the short also briefly features Scrooge McDuck in the background of a shot, and prominently mentions Magica De Spell as well as the Moonlanders.

## Description

It's a special Duckburg weather forecast — going all the way from a sunny afternoon at McDuck Manor to a curse-induced stormy night courtesy of Magica De Spell!

### Continuity

* Katie appears to have almost supernatural insight as to what is going to happen in the near future of Duckburg, most notably predicting an attack by Magica De Spell on McDuck Manor, and the events of *Moonvasion* (2019), in anticipation of which she bravely tries to give a forecast of what the weather will be like in space. Out-of-universe, the webcast is, of course, meant to serve as a teaser for the upcoming episodes, including *Moonvasion*.
* The ending shows that *DuckTales* exists in-universe in the 2017 Continuum, as previously established by the official webcast *Glomgold Theme Song Takeover* (2019), with new episodes of it premiering on September the 3d like in real life.

## Behind the scenes

Released on September the 3d, 2019 on Twitter, this fanfilm was retweeted by Francisco Angones, who greatly praised it, commenting: “Katie out here trying to steal Roxanne Featherly’s spot as Duckburg’s top broadcaster. I LOVE IT.”
Alice's Wild West Show

***Alice's Wild West Show*** is a theatrical cartoon short directed by Walt Disney. It features Alice, Tubby O'Brien and Wild Bill Hiccup.

## Plot

Alice and several kid friends of hers have mounted an amateur "wild west show", attended by other children. Things are off to a good start, but bully Tubby O'Brien and his gang show up, and Alice's acting troupe, terrified, runs away. Alice is forced to resort to simply standing on stage and telling a tall tale of her adventures in the wild west, from being chased in a stage-coach by natives on the warpath to single-handedly arresting bandit Wild Bill Hiccup.

## Behind the scenes

This cartoon short was released as a silent in 1924 (it would be given its score in 1999). It is the third short in the *Alice Comedies* series (fourth if one chooses to count *Alice's Wonderland*).

In interviews, Virginia Davis identified *Alice's Wild West Show* as one of the episodes that stand out most in her memory of filming the *Alice Comedies*; she remembers being very happy to be allowed to act "tomboyish" as was her true inclination.
A Green Christmas in Champignac

***A Green Christmas in Champignac*** (***Un Noël Sans Neige à Champignac*** in the original French) is a comic two-pager jointly created by Jean Léturgie and Simon Léturgie. It features Spirou, Fantasio, Pacôme de Champignac, Gustave Labarbe, Spip and Célestin Dupilon, and also mentions Harold W. Longplaying and Mrs Labarbe.

## Plot

It's the 24th of December, and no snow has yet fallen in Champignac — a turn of event for which the Mayor blames the Count, as usual. But Spirou and Fantasio have an idea to make things right.

## Behind the scenes

This short story was created by the Léturgies in the hope of being chosen to take over the main *Spirou & Fantasio* series following the departure of Morvan and José Luis Munuera. Yoann & Vehlmann were chosen instead, and *A Green Christmas in Champignac* was put up on the Léturgies' blog for free, alongside a parody strip making fun of their own rejection.

*A Green in Christmas in Champignac* has not been officially translated in English anywhere, but it was scanlated on *Spirou Reporter* in December of 2014, two years after its release.

Anna Poszepczyńska

## Interview

**Anna Poszepczyńska** is a Polish non-Disney comic artist who twice created unofficial tributes to the Disney comics universe.

## Career

Having studied Computer Graphics at the New Media Arts Faculty, Anna Poszepczyńska launched her first major comic project in 2017, a multimedia puzzle-solving story (intended for an audience of 12 and older) designed to be read on mobile devices, but still, fundamentally, a hand-drawn comic adventure. She described manga and Disney Comics as her main two sources of inspiration.

In 2019, Anna Poszepczyńska added a first Disney comic tribute to her ArtStation portfolio, the one-pager *Valuable Lesson*, starring Scrooge McDuck. In 2020, more noteworthily, she contributed a several-pages-long Duck Avenger comic story to the Polish Disney comics news website *Kakza Agencja Informacyjna*, entitled *Super-Unca!*.

Other Duck sketches created by Poszepczyńska in 2018.
Artorius Riothamus

Artorius Riothamus, not to be confused with Wart, was a minor warlord in England during the dark ages.

## Description

Artorius Riothamus was a minor warlord during the dark ages, who was known for having an extremely weak army. At one point during his reign, his kingdom was visited by Donald Duck, Huey, Dewey, and Louie, Gyro Gearloose, and Little Helper, who had time traveled. Thinking they were Saxon invaders (and a magical mouse), Artorius sent his army after them, only to be defeated by Donald wielding a helmet powered by the Stonehenge. Artorius's kingdom and army were mostly destroyed by the power of the helmet, and the Ducks traveled back to their time. However, Artorius's bard, Myrddin, began to travel the land, telling all that it was Artorius who performed the feats that Donald and Little Helper performed, to make Artorius sound like a fierce warrior so his enemies would be afraid of him. This grew into the original tale of King Arthur.

## Behind the scenes

Artorius Riothamus first appeared in *The Once and Future Duck* in 1996.
Blob

## The Blob

**The Blob**, also known as **Mister Blob**, is an enormous blob-like monster with vaguely reptilian features.

## Description

The Blob is an enormous, red, vaguely reptilian monster. In 2004, he checked in to the Hotel Transylvania, only to find that, due to his extreme height, he could not use his room's bathtub, which he needed to do to take his daily bubble bath. Calling concierge Donald Duck, he explained his predicament, and Donald quickly solved the problem by building a wall across the bathroom door, protecting the walls with waterproof plastic sheeting, and flooding the room, allowing the Blob to take his bubble bath with the entire bathroom as his bathtub.

Unfortunately, the floor leaked, and the water - Blob and all - crashed down into the hotel lobby, causing the manager to fire Donald. The Blob told him that he was making a mistake, and that Donald was the best concierge on the planet, a fact with which the other guests agreed, earning Donald his job back.

## Behind the scenes

The Blob first appeared in 2004 in *Hotel Transylvania*.

Though nominally based on the antagonist of a famous 1958 horror film also named *The Blob*, the Disney comics Blob shares few similarities with the amorphous, mindless creature of the movie, and he is more likely based on the concept of blob-monsters in general. A somewhat more traditional Blob Monster would later appear in the 2017 Continuum under the name of the Blob in the *DuckTales 2017* episode *The Trickening*.

Like many monsters who stayed at (or worked for) the Hotel Transylvania, it is possible the Blob originally came from the X-Dimension, rather than being native to Earth.
2-Gun Duck

**2-Gun Duck** is a male anthropomorphic duck.

## Description

A cousin or ancestor of Donald Duck's, 2-Gun Duck is presumably some sort of marksman or Wild West figure. On the Chart of the Duck Family Tree owned by Elvira Duck, he is present on the same branch as Ebenezer Duck.

## Behind the scenes

2-Gun Duck's name only ever appeared in the Duck Family Tree from 1960 comic story *Family Fun*.

Gilles Maurice once speculated that he may be the same individual as Buckaroo Duck.

* **Elvira "Elviry" Duck**, better known as **Grandma Duck**, Donald Duck's grandmother and a recurring character, who was alternatively known as **Abigail Duck** in a few stories;

An Adaptation of Dickens' Christmas Carol

Cover of the record

***An Adaptation of Dickens' Christmas Carol*** is an audio story (whose writer is unknown) featuring Scrooge McDuck, Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse, Willie the Giant, John Foulfellow, Gideon, Grimhilde, Daisy Duck, Minnie Mouse, Morty and Ferdie Fieldmouse, Merlin and Goofy.

## Plot

A theatrical adaptation of Dickens' *Christmas Carol* narrated by Scrooge McDuck (naturally playing Ebenezer Scrooge), with the "Walt Disney Players" (a makeshift troupe of Disney characters) playing the different parts, mostly to great effect, though Goofy struggles quite a bit with the dramatic part of Jacob Marley. Song sequences are interseded with the story.

### Songs

* *The Only Thing That Counts With Me*
* *The Way Christmas Ought To Be*
* *They Won't Know Me*
* *What a Glorious Christmas Morning*

## Behind the scenes

This record was released in 1974 through *Disneyland Records*. It served as the inspiration for the cartoon *Mickey's Christmas Carol* nine years later, which sticks very close to the script of *An Adaptation*, though some of the roles are changed (such as Jiminy Cricket replacing Merlin as the Ghost of Christmas Past) and the song sequences were scrapped.

In 1976, a French remake of the story was put out, starring Roger Carel as both the narrator and various characters within the tale. Though broadly equivalent to *An Adaptation*, even lifting its various songs, it was not a straight translation, with the text of the narration being original; for example, where *An Adaptation*’s narrator is Scrooge McDuck, Carel's version speaks of Scrooge in the third person.
Bee Bumbles

First page of the story.

***Bee Bumbles***, also printed as ***Bee Bumbler***, is a comic story written and drawn by Carl Barks. It features Donald Duck, Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck and the Junior Woodchucks.

## Plot

Donald Duck tries to get rid of the apiary that his nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie brought to his house in an effort to win a Junior Woodchucks badge. Unfortunately, disposing of a large, heavy box filled with angry stingers is easier said than done.

## Behind the scenes

Written in March of 1953, this story was first printed in November of that year in *Walt Disney's Comics and Stories* #158. It was reprinted in *Walt Disney's Comics and Stories* #361, *Donald Duck Adventures* #4, *The Toon Treasury of Classic Children's Comics* #1, and, of course, in all versions of the *Carl Barks Library*.
