DuckTales logo in bold yellow letters, topped by the Disney logo, stands out on a comic-inspired backdrop—evoking the lively adventure and fun that fans love to experience in Disney theme parks and live shows.

With the new “DuckTales” series set to premiere in August, everyone is buzzing about the return of their favorite ducks. They won’t be returning to just television though. A brand new “DuckTales” comic book series is on its way as well.

The original “DuckTales” series was actually based on a series of comic books, so it makes sense that a return to television would be partnered with a return to comics.

The new comic series will be written by Joe Caramagna, known for his work on a pair of Marvel shows on Disney XD which is the same channel that will be running the new DuckTales television series.

Art for the comics will come from Luca Usai and Gianfranco Florio, who have both illustrated Disney’s comics published in Italy.

The first issue will be comprised of two stories titled “The Great Experiment of the Washing Machine” and “The Chilling Secret of the Lighthouse.” Two different covers were created for the first issue.

Donald Duck and his nephews speed a bright yellow golf cart straight through a glass door, bursting onto the scene in wild comic book adventure, perfect for fans of zany Disney Park escapades.

Donald Duck leads three ducklings through a dimly lit, mechanical chamber, lighting the way with his torch as part of an immersive Disney adventure experience.

The comics are set to be released in September, and the new television series is set to premiere August 12 on Disney XD.
