Brazilian Disney comics

[macbee]

Hello! I'm Macbee from Brazil and this is my first post. Hope to make new friends here

My native language is Portuguese but I can read and write in English (despite my grammar mistakes) so I'd like to ask a question:

I'm trying to buy an apartment so I'm selling all my comics and toys.
I have many Brazilian Disney comics from 1980s and 1990s to sell but I don't speak Italian.
So can I create a thread written in English on "Il Mercatino"?

If you're curious you can see some of my comics. I'll take better pictures if I get allowed to sell them here on Papersera:


Thanks in advance and I'll perfectly understand if I can't create an English topic on 'Mercatino'

What do you think about Don Rosa? Do you like Fethry Duck's brazilian stories, or prefer american or italian ones?  In my opinion, the stories by Kinney/Hubbard are at the top!

Hi Alec!

I confess I'm not a Disney hardcore fan. I truly love these characters since I was a little kid but I don't know how to differ US, Brazilian or Italian stories on a comic book.

However I'm sure 'Editora Abril' (Brazilian Disney publisher) had printed stories from many different countries. I had probably read stories from all over the world even without knowing this back in the day.

Joe Carioca's stories were very easy to relate to Brazil's reality for instance. After this story you could see something completely different - like an old North American Carl Barks story. 'Abril' had published many articles about Barks and other veteran Disney artists so I'm a huge fan of Barks since I was 4 or 5 years old.

I feel very ashamed to say I (believe I) never read a comic by Don Rosa. I stopped to buy Disney comics in 1993 (and I had heard about him only a few years ago).

Now I think that Rosa maybe had drawn a 'Duck Tales' story from one of my Brazilian comics. I was intrigued when I read it for the first time as a kid.. Because this story had the look and feel of a Barks adventure - but modern characters like Capitao Boing (Launchpad McQuack) were there.

My favorite Disney characters are Donald and his family. Peninha (Fethry) always made me laugh. I like to see him as 'the red bat' however I really enjoy his adventures as a regular clumsy duck.

Hi, Mac!

We could read brazilian stories on "Mega 3000" a comic magazine dedicated to foreign Disney's comics, included the brazilian ones.  Sadly, the comic book is no more, but I have a good number of those mags, so I know your ducks quite well. Did you know that Pata Lee has italian origins? In USA she's Dickie Duck, but she was born as Paperetta Yè-Yè from Romano Scarpa's pencil!
Bye
ALEC.

Thank you so much for this info! I used to love Pata Lee's stories when I was young. I believed she was a Brazilian character - specially because her name is a reference to Brazilian rock singer Rita Lee

Hi, macbee.
Of course. You can sell your comics on "il mercatino" section and write your ad in English.
Remember to specify the conditions of the books, the number of the issues and the costs.
Saudações!
