***Bertram stories***

**Bertram** (called **Gaetano** in the original Italian) is a non-anthropomorphic ox belonging to Scrooge McDuck.

## Description

In 1962, Scrooge McDuck used this ox to plough through his money as part of his long-standing habit of playing in it in unlikely ways. Bertram, quite exhausted by the operation, seemed angry at his master because of it.

## Behind the scenes

Bertram appeared in the 1962 story *Uncle Scrooge and the Bodacious Butterfly Trail* and in its 2016 sequel *The Butterfly Tribe*.

"Gaetano" was given the English name of Betram as part of a localisation running-gag where, starting with *Uncle Scrooge* #375, the name "Betram" was used as a go-to for inconsequential background names, such as fast-food chains.
Bottomless Lake

The **Bottomless Lake** is a large lake in Africa.

## Description

The Bottomless Lake is a mysterious, magical lake somewhere in Africa, believed by some locals to house a monster. It is nearly impossible to reach it; without the source of Impossible Berries, only the world's greatest explorer, Doctor Stan Livingstone, ever managed it. According to Livingstone, the Lake is somehow *truly* bottomless, though (again thanks to Berries) he still managed to walk to the bottom of it and back once.

Every century, a few Impossible Berries float up to the surface of the Lake. They are magical berries which allow people to somehow achieve impossible things when bitten. It is in search of more Berries than the century's quota that Livingstone set out to reach the bottom of the Lake, though he found none there.

## Behind the scenes

The Bottomless Lake is the main macguffin location of the 1986 audio story *The Impossible Journey*.
Brass Plaque

The **brass plaque** was placed by **Sir Francis Drake** to claim ownership of Nova Albion, and to found **Drakeborough**.

## Description

The brass plaque was nailed to a tree outside of the Money Bin on Killmotor Hill. Scrooge cut up the stump of the tree to use for firewood, discovering the plaque in the process.

The inscription on the plaque says:*“Be it knowne to all bye these presents-- June 17, 1579: In the name of Queen Elizabeth of England, I take posession of this lande, Nova Albion, and do establish on this hill **Drake Borough**, now stated bye me..**Francis Drake**.”*

**Scrooge** claims to have melted down the brass plaque to use in his crown, though in reality he is using it as a plate for pigeons that come by his office.
Avarice-824

**Avarice-824** is a Mark 9 Clockwork Cherub.

## Description

A member of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids, Avarice-824, as suggested by his chosen name, is one of the few Cupids who cares for money and other such earhtly riches. When the Copper-Colored Council of Elders opened a Suggestion Box, he suggested the Crew start charging its targets for their own romanticisation, and also proposed other money-making schemes for the Cupids, such as the sale of merchandise. The Elders naturally thought the whole thing appalling and turned it down.

## Behind the scenes

Avarice-824 first appeared in 2019's *The Cupid Suggestion Box*.
B.C. Buggy

The **B.C. Buggy** is an interdimensional vehicle in the shape of a chariot, built by Gyro Gearloose.

## Description

One of Gyro Gearloose's many time machines, the B.C. Buggy (dating back to 1965) takes the form of a chariot with a clock-like face and a pendulum on the front, which can be used to set the date and place to which one wants to travel. Once switched on, the B.C. Buggy will move in a circle, faster and faster, until it dematerializes and reappears in the past. If the Buggy travels through the Time Vortex at all, this is not visible to its occupants, who merely see the present landscape blur around them and then snap back into focus as the time period they picked.

## Behind the scenes

The B.C. Buggy appears in the 1965 story *Battle of Petras*.

The cartoon short in its official YouTube upload.

***Baymax Helps Launchpad!*** is a short cartoon webcast. The short is part of the *Random Rings* series, and features the 2017 Continuum's Launchpad McQuack as well as Baymax.

Barnacle Bill

**Barnacle Bill** is an anthropomorphic dog.

## Description

Barnacle Bill is a tough but friendly sailor. He is quite passionate about sailing and adventure, even introducing himself as "Barnacle Bill, th' sailor" and proudly bearing a tattoo of a ship on his chest. He's also an alcohol enthusiast, declaring that "if it's in a jug, I'll like it!"

In 1931, he lived with his good friend Kat Nipp. A self-declared knot expert, he often took out the knots in Kat Nipp's tail, which were sometimes placed there by Nipp's rival Mickey Mouse. When Mickey and Bill met, the two quickly got on somewhat friendly terms as Mickey offered Bill some "nepeta cataria" catnip, which Bill enjoyed very much and got drunk on.

## Behind the scenes

Barnacle Bill made his first appearance in a strip of *Mickey Mouse vs. Kat Nipp* originally released on February the 14th, 1931. A similar character had appeared in a strip of *Mr Slicker and the Egg Robbers*, though this character was shown with dark fur whereas Bill's fur was not originally colored at all. Barnacle Bill's existence was first implied in the strip of *Mickey Mouse vs. Kat Nipp* released on February the 9th, 1931, where Kat Nipp was shown drunkenly stumbled into his and Bill's home with a tail full of knots and emerged just moments later with a knot-less tail. That it was Bill who was taking the knots out of Kat Nipp's tail wasn't revealed until the strip released on February the 14th, the first official, physical appearance of Barnacle Bill.

After *Mickey Mouse vs. Kat Nipp*, he appeared in a couple of comic stories by Wilfred Haughton but does not seem to have appeared in many other stories.
Big Sneezer

## The Big Sneezer

The **"Big Sneezer"** is a female non-sapient (although somewhat anthropomorphic) dragon.

## Description

The "Big Sneezer", as she was nicknamed by the Duck family, inhabited an island which was also home to a fountain of youth on one side and old man potatoes on the other. The Big Sneezer made her home in the only pass to the other side of the island. She used to only stay for nesting periods, and then move on, allowing those living on one side of the island to get to the other. An equal balance of both of the magical substances allowed them to live forever. However, one year the dragon developed a cold and stayed on the island, and the people on either side of the island were no more. An unknown amount of time later, the Duck family came to the island to save Professor Phineas McGuffin and managed to cure the Big Sneezer's cold using Donald Duck's cold medication, causing the dragon to leave the island. Her current whereabouts are unknown.

## Behind the scenes

The Big Sneezer was first seen in Freddy Milton's *The Big Sneeze*, which had a complicated publication history (see the story's page for more info), first published in any form in 1976.

Years later, when the plotline of *The Big Sneeze* was reworked by Freddy Milton as a *Gnuff Family* story, the Big Sneezer was given the name of "Gargantua", made green and four-legged, and established to be female. As Milton gave no indication otherwise, it is likely he intended for the original Big Sneezer to likewise be female.
Black Forest

The  **Black Forest**, also known as the **Enchanted Forest** or simply the **Forest**, is a forest that surrounds Duckburg.

## Description

   The Black Forest appears at first glance as a reasonably plausible forest and is as such a prized picnic location for Duckburgers and Mousetonians. On conventional maps, it is depicted as existing on the edge of the city, "up" from Donald Duck's House and past Mount Demontooth, and it is a popular destination for Junior Woodchuck expeditions.

However, as one will soon find should one wander deep enough, the Forest is larger on the inside than the geography of Calisota could possibly allow. It is home to unusually intelligent non-anthropomorphic animals as well as to unusually uncivilized anthropomorphic ones, who live in a sort of settlement. Many of those are known in the civilized world as fairy-tale characters, such as Brer Rabbit and the Three Little Pigs.

Deeper yet in the forest are hidden, temporally-displaced fairy-tale kingdoms. These include (by all accounts) the Kingdom of Snow White, with Snow White running away from the castle and into the Forest to find the Seven Dwarfs' Cottage, also possible to reach starting from the Duckburg end of the Black Forest. The “Peaceful Valley” containing the Kingdom of Cinderella can also only be accessed from the American ends by passing through the heart of the Black Forest.

## Behind the scenes

The Forest has been a recurring location since at least *Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs* (1937). The conflation of various fairy-tale forests as time went on into one all-encompassing magical forest was confirmed in 1951 in *Peaceful Valley* as the mechanic by which characters from Disney fairy-tale feature films like *Cinderella* could interact with the present-day Duckburg cast with no time travel involved.

Birthday Genie's Urn

The Genie climbing back inside the Urn.

The **Birthday Genie's Lamp** is a enchanted urn.

## Description

Through unknown events, a genie came to be contained inside this urn which found its way to the Duckburg Museum, where it was exposed in 1952. The Genie would only get out of the Urn to grant three wishes to whoever touched it on their birthday, and seemed to be rather happy inside the urn. In 1952, the vase was knocked down by Donald Duck, but did not shatter; instead, the impact woke up the Genie.

## Behind the scenes

This Magic Urn was seen in the 1994 story *The Duck Who Never Was*.
Bob the Farmer

**Bob the Farmer** is an anthropomorphic dog.

## Description

Bob is a friend of Mickey Mouse's. The owner of a small farm near Mouseton, he keeps a few barnyard animals there, but it is most notable for the fields of high camomile he cultivates there, and from which he is quite good at making scrumptious infusions. In 2003, he helped Mickey placate the Irrigonia by turning a nearby lake into one big chamomile infusion, putting the plant-beast to sleep when she tried to drink from it.

## Behind the scenes

Bob appears in the 2003 story *The Thirsty Monsters*.
Blottie

**“Blottie”** is a young female anthropomorphic dog.

## Description

“Blottie” is the Phantom Blot's young niece. Much like the Blot's young daughter, she wears a cloak identical to her uncle's, even going so far as to go by the name “Blottie”.

## Behind the scenes

Blottie was inadvertently created by Don Rosa in January of 1994 in a post as part of the *Disney Comics Mailing List*.

In the post, Rosa sought to criticize the way the then-recent run fo American-produced *Mickey Mouse* comics had treated the character and his world. By all appearances Rosa had, in singling out the supposed creation of “Blottie”, meant to criticize the Phantom Brat, from the diptych formed by *The Big Fall* and *A Phantom Blot Bedtime Story*. However, though she did wear the black cloak, the Phantom Brat was never called "Blottie", with even the name of “Phantom Brat” itself only being a behind-the-scenes suggestion published after the fact; and, of course, she was not the Blot's niece but rather his *daughter*. If one chooses to grant some canonicity to Rosa's words, it must thus be the case that Blottie is a different individual from the “Brat”.

It is unclear if she is to be taken as a sibling of the Blot's nephews the Three Blotlings, from Brazilian comics, of whose existence Rosa was clearly unaware in 1994.
Battlement Hill

**Battlement Hill** is a hill in Duckburg, Calisota.

## Description

Battlement Hill is located in Duckburg, Calisota, United States of America. It is known for having been the site of a battle fought by Stonewall Duck in the 19th Century that brought peace to Duckburg for the next 100 years. By 1960, only a few of the weapons once used on the hill still remained, including "Old Cannon Number One", and a statue honoring Stonewall Duck had been erected. Old Cannon Number One was removed from the hill by order of Mayor Hog and the Duckburg City Council.

## Behind the scenes

Battlement Hill is a location first seen in *The Village Blacksmith* by Carl Barks, which was both written and released in 1960.
Billy Smith

**Billy Smith** is a Junior Woodchuck.

## Description

Billy is a Junior Woodchuck whose parents were too poor to buy him binoculars. Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck initially intended to give him a quarter so as to use the pay telescope for the astronomy lesson in the McDuck Tower, but as it fell, they lended him their binoculars instead.

## Behind the Scenes

His first appearance was in *The Coin* by Don Rosa.
Aunt Esther

**Aunt Esther** is a presumably a female dognose.

## Description

This motherly woman is the aunt of Paul, one of Peg-Leg Pete's henchmen. When Pete asked Paul to dress up as a policeman as part of a scheme, he protested that Esther had warned him blue "didn't go with his eyes" (a rather puzzling statements, for the record, as Paul's eyes *are* blue).

## Behind the scenes

Aunt Esther appears in the 1997 story *Chief Casey's Longest Night*.

Translator Joe Torcivia gave her the name of "Aunt Esther" both in allusion to his wife, who bears this name, and as a nod to the character of Aunt Esther in the 1970's TV series *Sanford & Son*.
Bing! You're Hypnotized Wand

The wand held by Magica De Spell.

The **‘Bing! You're Hypnotized’ Wand** is a magic wand enchanted with a particular memory curse.

## Description

The “Bing! You're Hypnotized” wand was acquired by Magica De Spell at the Sorcerers' Bazaar in Cairo in the early 1960's; she got it for cheap due to the fact that no other sorcerer before her had thought of a practical use for its specific curse, which makes whoever is zapped with the wand forget what is said to them right after their own name. The effect, of course, only lasts for 24 hours. Magica tried to use it to steal Scrooge McDuck's Number One Dime, only for Scrooge and Donald to manage to wrangle the wand away from her, zapping *her* with it so as to make her forget (for a time) that she even *wanted* the Dime.

## Behind the scenes

The ‘Bing! You're Hypnotized’ Wand is at the center of the 2002 Don Rosa story *Forget It!*.

## Description

Bertram is a somewhat snobbish man from Mouseton. On Christmas Eve 2011, he and his equally-snobbish wife were dining at the most exclusive and expensive restaurant in the city, *Chez Prez* when said wife remarked how rude another guest (Peg-Leg Pete, spending his latest ill-gotten gains) seemed. Bertram agreed with her sentiment.

## Behind the scenes

Bertram briefly appears in the 2011 story *Mickey Mouse and the Coat of Christmas Magic!*.

He is part of the "Bertram gag", an in-joke of the original four IDW localizators wherein they would sneak in the name "Bertram" in a variety of contrasts. For example, the name was thus allocated to an ox belonging to Scrooge McDuck, seen in *The Bodacious Butterfly Trail*.

Bodaway

**Bodaway** was a human man.

## Description

The “warrior chief” of a Native American tribe in the Big Thunder Mountain region long before the arrival of European settlers, Bodaway grew from a war leader to a greedy and inhuman conqueror over the years. According to legend, his wicked ways and abuse of "her people" drew the ire of the Thunderbird, who eventually took advantage of Bodaway's taking shelter from a storm in a mountain cave to kill him.

## Behind the scenes

Canute the Brute's Battle Axe

First page of the story.

***Canute the Brute's Battle Axe*** is a comic story written by Jørgen Fogedby, Lars Bergström and Tom Anderson and drawn by Vicar. It features Scrooge McDuck, Donald Duck, Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck, Chisel McSue, and, in flashback, Fayodor McDuck.

## Plot

Scrooge McDuck is president and treasurer of the "Old Scottish Tartans Club" in Duckburg. Unfortunately, Chisel McSue is also interested in the job (mostly because it would allow him to plunder the club's treasury, as, being run by Scots, it has become quite wealthy). The latest of a long line of swindles to try and take Scrooge's place, he now wants to prove that, contrary to what Scrooge has always claimed, his ancestor Fayodor McDuck *wasn't* the one who defeated Viking chief Canute the Brute. To prove his legitimity, Scrooge must now retrieve Canute the Brute's battle axe, which had been taken as a trophy by Sir Fayodor. But Chisel won't let him get away so easily…

## Behind the scenes

The story was first printed in Swedish in *Kalle Anka & Co.* #1981-01. It was first printed in English in 1992 in *Uncle Scrooge* #272.
Beelzebub

**Beelzebub** is a male enchanted broomstick.

## Description

Beelzebub is the name Witch Hazel gave to her magical flying broomstick when she granted it sentience with magic. Beelzebub is a very loyal ally to Hazel, although he can be a little stubborn and sometimes requires some persuasion before he lets Hazel ride him. Although he has no visible eyes, Beelzebub behaves as though a section on top of the broomstick was his head, and has been known to bend it as if leaning to get a better look at something.

## Behind the scenes

He first appeared, along with his mistress, in 1952 in *Trick or Treat*.
Blotworx Vizier

## The Blotworx Vizier

The **Blotworx Vizier** is or was a Blotworx.

## Description

One of the Blotworx created by the Mad Doctor during his exile in Disney Gulch, the Blotworx Vizier appeared larger and stranger than later Blotworx, being an actual welding of organic Blotling matter (possibly merged from numerous separate Blotlings, judging from the numerous eyes) with a Beetleworx head and upper body (created in the likeness of the sorcerer Jafar). The Vizier's head crackled with green electricity and he wielded some version of the real Jafar's Snake Staff.

Obviously unhinged, the Blotworx Vizier presumably proved too unpredictable and rebellious for the Mad Doctor's designs, just like his other Blotworx prototypes. He then let it loose in Wasteland; it is unknown what happened to him later on, though it is likely it was eventually defeated after the Doc turned back to the side of good.

## Behind the scenes

The Blotworx Vizier was one of the individual Blotworx designed for *Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two*, but eventually scrapped.

## Description

The villainous thug Big Mean Frank, whose iconic outfit included a cap with the initials “DT”, once briefly became a sixth member of the Fearsome Five (temporarily rechristened “the Salacious Six” as a result).

## Behind the scenes

This parody of Francisco Angones appeared only once, in the 2020 unofficial cartoon *The Salacious Six!*.
Blackduck

**Blackduck** is or was a male anthropomorphic duck.

## Description

A member of the extended Duck family, Blackduck is or was a notorious pirate. The Chart of the Duck Family Tree owned by Elvira Duck in 1960 showed him to be on the same branch of the tree as Gladstone Gander, for which fact Donald Duck immediately made fun of Gladstone.

## Behind the scenes

Blackduck's name appears in the Duck Family Tree from 1960 comic story *Family Fun*.

His name is unmistakeably a reference to Blackbeard the Pirate (and, indeed, was simply called “Blackbeard”, or regional equivalents thereof, in some translations). As such, it is unclear if Blackduck is a historical figure and distant ancestor of Gladstone, or a more recent relative.
Caballero Gonzalez

## Gallus Maximus

**Gallus Maximus** was an anthropomorphic rooster.

## Description

A Roman adventurer, Gallus Maximus was the 13th great-grandfather of Panchito Pistoles, who he resembled closely, save for some stubble. Together with Don Dugo and Pascoal Papagaio, Maximus was one of the original Three Caballeros who defeated Lord Felldrake with the help of the goddess Xandra.

## Behind the scenes

Benjamin Frankloon

**Benjamin Frankloon** was an anthropomorphic loon in the 2017 Continuum and its counterpart to the original Benjamin Franklin.

## Description

Benjamin Frankloon was, presumably, an American Founding Father, scientist and inventor (among other things) like the Prime Universe's Benjamin Franklin. At any rate, he later described himself as American history's foremost meteorologist. In 2019, the timephoon accidentally caused by Louie Duck brought him to present day McDuck Manor, where he somehow ended up briefly hosting a weather forecast concerning the timephoon itself, which was cut short by Frankloon's paranoid misunderstandings of how TVs work. Louie eventually sent him back to his own time as part of his efforts to fix the course of time.

## Behind the Scenes

Benjamin Frankloon made his first physical appearance in *Timephoon* as a parody of the historical Benjamin Franklin. A version of Franklin also exists in the classic continuity, *sans* punny name.
Black Arts Beagle

## Black Arts Beagle(2017 Continuum)

**Black Arts Beagle** is an anthropomorphic dog from the 2017 Continuum and one of said universe's Beagle Boys.

## Description

Black Arts Beagle is a member of the Beagle Boys. He took magic lessons in an attempt to impress Ma Beagle. This came in handy during Scrooge McDuck's birthday party in 2018, when he disguised himself as the illusionist Nik Nokturne, and attempted to summon a ghost to get Scrooge's fortune.

Unfortunately for Black Arts, the ghost he summoned was Duckworth, who was more interested in freeing Scrooge from the box in which Black Arts had trapped him than stealing his fortune. Black Arts was chased out of the manor soon afterwards by a disguised Duckworth, who made him believe he'd accidentally summoned an eldritch demon, hopefully scaring Black Arts into quitting dark magic.

Black Arts Beagle may or may not be the same B. A. Beagle who wrote *The Myth of the Shadow Realm*, a book Webby Vanderquack read as part of her attempts to find a way to bring Lena De Spell back from the Shadow Realm.

## Behind the scenes

Black Arts Beagle first appeared in *McMystery at McDuck McManor* in 2018. His name is akin to that of Blackheart Beagle, although they are essentially unrelated characters.
Bewildered Falcon

## The Bewildered Falcon

The **Bewildered Falcon** is a (presumably male) non-anthropomorphic falcon.

## Description

This falcon lives in the wilderness not far from the capital of Mintavia. In 1982, the falcon was thoroughly bewildered when Scrooge McDuck fell from a helicopter, through a tree and into a river while suffering no harm at all.

Chloroplastic Cookbook

## The Chloroplastic Cookbook

 The **Chloroplastic Cookbook** was a book mentioned in one dream of Scrooge McDuck's.

## Description

In a dream of Scrooge McDuck's, the Chloroplastic Cookbook was the book in which the Chloroplasts found the recipe for photosynthetic solution. When Donald Duck landed in a batch of solution, the Chloroplasts briefly believed he had coalesced out of the liquid, and one of them remarked that this was all the more surprising when he had followed every step in the Cookbook to the letter.

## Behind the scenes

The Chloroplastic is mentioned in the 1983 comic story *Plantastic Voyage*.
Asbestos Gloves Inventor

## The Asbestos Gloves Inventor

The **“Asbestos Gloves Inventor”** is or was an anthropomorphic pig.

## Description

Around 1887, this inventor became one of the few prospectors ever to outsmart "smartest-of-the-smarties" Scrooge McDuck in the middle of a gold rush: while Scrooge was powerless to reach gold in the Transvaal which was melting out of some rocks due to the heat, he invented asbestos gloves and used them to collect the literal liquid gold. Scrooge told this story to Duckburg Burrow Number 13 while trying to warn them off against the follies of gold rushes, around 1963.

## Behind the scenes

The Asbestos Gloves Inventor appears in flashback form in the 1963 Carl Barks story *The Loony Lunar Gold Rush*.

## Plot

Flintheart Glomgold's scientists breed Metal Mites, which Glomgold can't wait to put to use on literally eating away at Scrooge McDuck's fortunes. After Gizmoduck attempts to confront the mites, they eat his Gizmosuit! Can Fenton find the hero within himself before the Metal Mites feast on all the contents of the Money Bin?

### References

* Metal Mites are bugs that eat metal. After eating something made of metal, they retain some of the original object's properties (e.g. being magnetic, being called to Fenton Crackshell when he says 'Blathering blatherskite!').

## Behind the Scenes

*Attack of the Metal Mites* is the ninety-fifth episode of *DuckTales*.
Bound for Space

***Cap sur l'Espace***, directly translatable as ***Bound for Space***, is a simplistic "comic story" written and drawn by Morgan Prost which accompanied a non-fiction article written by Mathieu Rocher. It features Donald Duck and an alien.

## Description

### Continuity

* Donald Duck says he's the man for the job because “when it comes to odd-jobs, I'm an authority", a reference to the long-running series of one-pagers *Donald's Odd Jobs* printed in *Le Journal de Mickey*.

## Behind the scenes

Biceps Blues

The first page of the story

***Biceps Blues***, also printed as ***Musclebound Mania***, is a story by Carl Barks. It features Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Huey, Dewey, and Louie Duck, and, in their debuts, Suzy Swan and Deltoid Biceppa.

## Description

Daisy's old friend from school, Suzy Swan, has a new, very muscular boyfriend, and Donald is jealous of Daisy's admiration for him. The hotheaded duck decides to show Daisy that he, too, is a strongman - which doesn't prove to be quite so easy as he imagines.

### References

Cellino Falco

**Cellino Falco** was a human man.

## Description

A kindhearted man with a love of aviation, Cellino Falco was one of the founders of the Museum of Fantastic Flight, along with his wife, Giuliana Falco. He inspired a love of flight in his daughter Camellia Falco, who would eventually become a famous aviator and member of the Society of Explorers and Adventurers.

It would seem that Aletta the falcon was cared for by Cellino while Camellia was very young, as the bird can often be seen perched upon Cellino's arm or shoulder in portraits.

Cellino seems to have died in or prior to 1850, at which point Camellia inherited the Museum.

## Behind the scenes

Cellino appears in the Tokyo DisneySea attraction *Soaring: Fantastic Flight*, which opened in July of 2019.
Bushroot (2017 Continuum)

## Fictional Character:Bushroot(2017 Continuum)

**Bushroot** is a fictional anthropomorphic duck turned plant person and the 2017 Continuum's version of Bushroot. A real being, identical to the fictional version, also exists in the DW Continuum.

## Description

This Bushroot was a supervillain from the television series *Darkwing Duck*, and thus presumably nonexistent in real-life.

## Behind the scenes

Bushroot first appeared in the 2019 cartoon *The Duck Knight Returns*.
Boothead Pete

**Boothead Pete** was presumably a male anthropomorphic cat.

## Description

Peg-Leg Pete's great-grandfather, Boothead Pete was the head of a gang of Wild West masked robbers. They ransacked a small town near Carbine Canyon only to be chased off by its sheriff, Donald Duck's own great-grandpa Bluffer Duck (causing the town to be renamed Duck's Bluff). Boothead split off from his gang and ran away, but never dared to return for the buried loot. He later consigned his recollections of that fateful night in a chapter of his autobiography-cum-criminal record, *Dastardly Deeds*.

## Behind the scenes

Boothead Pete is mentioned in the 1959 story *Duck's Bluff Story*.
Bunny Children

## The Bunny Children

The **Bunny Children** are a large group of anthropomorphic rabbits.

## Description

These Bunny Children of absurdly high numbers are the offspring of Oswald and Ortensia Rabbit, and now live in Wasteland along with their parents. Growing up in a land of magic and adventure has apparently done wonders for them, as they are capable of holding their on in battles against Blotlings. The flip-side of this independence is that they tend to scatter and run off on their own without listening to any grown-ups… and with some counts putting the number of identical bunnies at 420 or more, it's all but impossible for Oswald and Ortensia to keep full track of them.

## Behind the scenes

The Bunny Children, created in 1927 in *Poor Papa* as a one-off gag, would later reappear in *Epic Mickey* and its spin-offs.

The exact numbering and gender of the Bunny Children is unknown. *A Hole in the Sky* (taking place a substantial amount of time before the Thinner Disaster) states that Oswald and Ortensia have 420 children, and imply that all of them are named Oswald Junior the [N]th, by order of birth, suggesting they are all boys. However, *Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two* shows Oswald and Ortensia's 101st child to be a girl.
Captain Blackheart

**Captain Blackheart** was an anthropomorphic cat.

## Description

Peg-legged, eyepatch-wearing Captain Blackheart was the captain of a pirate ship in the second half of the 17th century. By 1687, he and his crew had created a primitive settlement in Duckburg Bay, out of sight of Fort Drakeborough. That year, Blackheart encountered a time-traveling Scrooge McDuck, his grandnephews, Gyro Gearloose, and their enemies the Beagle Boys — all, coincidentally, on Blackheart's birthday.

Revealing himself to be a rather genial sort of pirate, the Captain only took the gang prisoners so he could make them sing at his birthday party, at which he was offered a single new boot from his sailors, whom he thanked profusely. He *did*, of course, plan to take the time-displaced fortune of Scrooge for himself, but that plan fell through when the Ducks, theBeagles and Gearloose took it back to their own time-period in their escape.

## Behind the scenes

Captain Blackheart first appeared in the 1987 episode of *DuckTales*, *Time Teasers*.

Captain Blackheart resembles Peg-Leg Pete down to the peg-leg, only differing by his attire and eyepatch. Along with Captain Pietro and Genghis Khan, he is one of three seemingly-unrelated characters in *DuckTales* modeled after Pete. Though the same cannot be said for the others, it is possible that Blackheart was one of Pete's ancestor, somewhat excusing the puzzling resemblance.

Coincidentally, Captain Blackheart shares his name with an undead pirate from the *Elder Scrolls Online* video game.

Captain Smollett

**Captain Smollett** was a human man.

## Description

A strong and authoritative navy officer, Captain Smollett (of the *Hispaniola*) was hired by Squire Trelawney for his journey to Treasure Island to find Captain Flint's loot. Smollett, wary of pirates and would-be-mutineers, insisted on handpicking his crew and checking all their references, a slow process that made Trelawney take a dislike to the "paranoid" captain and seek out his own crew with the help "innocent innkeeper" Long John Silver. Smollett's worries were soon vindicated as Silver and his crew proved to be former pirates who launched a mutiny, but, alongside Trelawney, Doctor Livesey, Jim Hawkins and the handful of *honest* seamen hired by Smollett before Silver's interference, they were able to gain the upper hand, and Smollett returned to England with a share of the treasure (though he had been wounded in battle).

## Behind the scenes

Captain Smollett appeared in the 1950 film *Treasure Island* and a few other Disney adaptations and parodies of the *Treasure Island* story. Among these is *Muppet Treasure Island*, in which the role is played by Kermit the Frog.

In the original novel, his first name is given as Alexander.

*Treasure Planet*, which is in essence a space opera retelling of the *Treasure Island* story, has the female Captain Amelia as its counterpart to Captain Smollett.

CS-NA

**CS-NA** is a sentient ship-building drone, likely from another dimension than the Prime.

## Description

CS-NA is a small, but scrappy, ship-building robot, resembling a small box with scuttling legs and two camera-lens-like eyes. CS-NA is silent, communicating only through body language as well as mechanical whirrs and clicks, but is quite clever. When the need arises, he can also use his “eyes” to project crude holograms.

Built with technology older than that available on 1960 Earth in the Prime Universe, he was found as quite an old and rusty possession of a Goblin Salesman in the Interdimensional Black Market in 2019 by Darius and Tracker-764. With him so outdated as a piece of technology, the Salesman mostly used him to work around the shop, and was hoping to swap him for a newer model. The two travellers talked the Salesman into letting them take CS-NA along to help them repair their Void Ship, as well as a spare part they needed, in exchange for one of Madame Tarsa's insanely valuable cursed ventriloquist's dummies.

After Darius betrayed Tracker, CS-NA decided to think of Tracker as the worthier of his two “masters” and followed after him. After Tracker escape the Market, he was taken back to the Cupid Homeworld, where he has resided ever since.

## behind the scenes

CS-NA first appeared in the 2019 *Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids* story *Misadventures in the Interdimensional Black Market*.
Captain Retro-Duck… er, um, “Retros” Again!

First and only page of the story.

 ***Captain Retro-Duck… er, um, “Retros” Again!*** is a *Fluffy and Mervin* comic story by Debbie Anne Perry. Besides the regular of the non-Disney series, namely Debbie, Fluffy and Mervin, the comic featured a cameo appearance by Captain Retro-Duck, approved by Joe Torcivia.

## Plot

Debbie's reading of an issue of *Captain Retro-Duck* is disturbed by the noises of the "trashy" television her wards Fluffy and Mervin are watching. Going over to scold them, she discovers that in their case, “trashy” is much more literal than expected.

## Behind the scenes

This comic was released in July of 2015 as the 235th comic on the *Fluffy and Mervin* website.

It was also rereleased, with added commentary, on *Joe Torcivia's The Issue At Hand*, where it gained its makeshift title under the pen of Torvicia, who confirmed that the use of his Disney Comics creation Captain Retro-Duck had been with his full knowledge and approval. This was not the only time Perry created new comic art featuring Retro-Duck.

Then, they have to go through the land mines. Scrooge lets them get close to the Bin, so that way they can try to enter. The Beagle Boys do like always; they chisel a little hole in the wall and hope the money flows out. When that doesn't work, they go to the main entrance.

Chris Moreno's Duck Family Tree

**Chris Moreno's Duck Family Tree** is a Duck family tree created by Chris Moreno during the development of *Legend of the Three Caballeros*. It is an "update" of Don Rosa's Duck Family Tree, reusing Rosa's art for the portraits of most of the characters but also featuring Don de Pato.

## Description

This version of the Duck Family Tree shows beams of light shining down upon Donald Duck and Clinton Coot as well as on their ancestor Don de Pato, present in the literal roots of the Coot Kin — stressing the line of three's importance to the Three Caballeros' glorious history.

Two other notable changes are that Fergus McDuck is referred to as “Fergus 'Old Scotty' McDuck”, conflating him with Old Scotty McDuck, and that Scrooge's grandfather's name is now spelled as “Dirty 'Dingus' McDuck”, confirming that Dingus (the first name used for the character by Don Rosa) was only a nickname and allowing for his true name to remain Titus McDuck.

## Behind the scenes

Created during the production of *Legend of the Three Caballeros*, the Tree was released on Twitter by show creator Matt Danner to promote the official American release of the show on the Disney+ streaming service.
