With 2024 serving as a milestone year for both Donald Duck and Wolverine, Disney and Marvel are taking the opportunity for a double celebration this July by honouring their 90th and 50th anniversaries respectively with the mashup one-shot Marvel & Disney: What If…? Donald Duck Became Wolverine.
From acclaimed Disney comic creators, writer Luca Barbieri and artist Giada Perissinotto, the first of its kind one-shot will celebrate both pop culture legends as Donald-Wolverine embarks on an Old Man Logan-inspired adventure packed with reimagined Disney and Marvel mashups.
“Donald Duck and Wolverine are two characters that seem almost impossible to make coexist, but in fact they possess very similar personality: they are both hot-tempered and unlucky, but in adversity they do not lose heart and always show that they have a big heart,” said Barbieri. “Once this point was focused, writing the story turned out to be easy and fun!”
“I always thought Wolverine’s sideburns only looked good on Uncle Scrooge, but when I drew them on Donald Duck I realized they fit him perfectly too!” added Perissinotto. “Those pointy head tufts and thick sideburns go well with his shaggy being. I had so much fun adapting Wolverine’s hair to Donald Duck that I would do him like this all the time now!”
Marvel & Disney: What If…? Donald Duck Became Wolverine #1 will go on sale on July 31st.
