Donald's parents by Guido Martina

[ScroogerelloBassottoMessaggi: 11Esordiente Registrato]

Just read that in an old Guido Martina comic from the 1950s (this one: https://inducks.org/story.php?c=I+TL++219-AP ), Donald's parents briefly appear. Anyone know more about this, or perhaps has access to images of the characters?

Also, as I read his, I was wondering--have Donald's parents appeared (or at least been mentioned) in any other stories before "The Life and Times"? You'd think there's be at least a couple of occasions, perhaps in more obscure (classic) Italian stories.

Cheers,

Donald's parents briefly appear.

Not really. Donald, Scrooge, the nephews and the rest are used as "actors" to interpret a story out of the usual universe (so, for example, here Donald is born in South America and he is not a relative of Scrooge).
The parents of the character interpeted by Donald appear, but

Spoiler

they are real ducks (animals, not people); moreover, they are killed (readers are shown quite explicitly the beheading of Donald's father; the scene is not too gross, mostly because it is a duck and not a person which is killed). There is no explanation of how a "person" (Donald) could be born from two animals.

All that I wrote is from my memory. In this moment I have no access to my copy of the story; but I think I made no mistake.

Yes, it's correct.
