Donald Duck
Few comic characters carry the weight of seven decades quite like Donald Duck, whose catalog journey with Egmont Ehapa stretches all the way back to a 1954 German-market debut in Micky Maus Sonderheft #20, brought to life by the legendary Paul Murry. That Golden Age starting point anchors Donald in the very foundation of the medium, and his 88 appearances — spanning an remarkable 71 years through to 2025 — speak to an enduring presence that very few characters can match. His most celebrated appearances land in the prestigious Barks Library collections, those lovingly curated volumes that represent the gold standard of classic duck comics, and he shares his pages with a wonderful ensemble including Dagobert Duck, Daisy Duck, Gustav Gans, and Daniel Düsentrieb. With at least one key collector's issue to his name, this is a character whose comic legacy rewards both the casual browser and the dedicated archivist.
