PKNA #38 - In the fog


PKNA#38 - In the Fog

Banker brings us another cool issue.

Also, Danes might like to know that the second never-been-published-in-Denmark issue of PKNA is a part of THIS week's Anders And & Co. I believe they're gonna do the first four issues.


(Also, I swear I'm gonna update the download page tomorrow.)

THE MOTHERLODE

Oh man. Oh man oh man oh man.

Alright, let’s do this proper like:

PKNA #31 Bonus story: I am Xadhoom - Flat line

This is a good one. Huge props to Aspargus32.

Banker also brought a little something: The entire frickin' Xadhoom trilogy.

PKNA#35 - Stowaway on Board


PKNA#36 - Far, Far Away


PKNA#37 - Under a New Sun


I'm getting chills guys. But wait, Disney has also brought us some goodies:

If you're Greek, check this out:



Oh yes, PKNA is coming to Greece as Οι Νέεες Περιπέτειες του Φάντομ Ντακ. I don't know a lot of details about this one - websites about it tend to be in Greek. But if you're Greek too, go check it out!

Oh, and if you're Danish like me:



Yes! Check out this bad boy: http://www.gucca.dk/boeger/staalanden-reloaded-00_199173.html

A hardcover collection of the first four issues of PKNA - meaning three issues that have NEVER been released in Denmark, as well as Stålanden #1 "Skygger på Venus".

God, I want this thing!

EDIT:

Oh, and there's more: This week's edition of Anders And & Co. also brings the first issue of Stålanden Reloaded, meaning that a new generation of kids who CAN'T afford the hardcover version will get to enjoy it too. Next week's issue will bring another issue. So check those out too. And let's see if we can convince them to keep going.

Personally I'll probably end up buying both these and the hardcover. Man, this is fun.

That's it. Alright guys, Disney is making a move with spreading PKNA throughout the world. Let's show our appreciation and make it worth their while!

PKNA #34 - Nothing Personal


Just for the record, I love this issue even more.

PKNA#34 - Nothing Personal

PKNA #33 - The Day that Will Come



Just for the record, I love this issue.

PKNA#33 - The Day that Will Come

Oh, and by the way: FORUM!

The Duck Avenger Forum + PKNA #31



Banker just went ahead and made another really cool thing: Our very own forum!

It's probably about time we get a place that's more convenient for discussion than the individual comment section. So go check it out!

Oh, and of course Banker also finished a brand new issue!



PKNA#31 - Beato Angelico

But seriously,
FORUM!

PKNA #30 - Phase Two + bonus stories


You'll never guess who shows up in this issue.

PKNA #30 - Phase two

#29 Bonus story: 5Y - Completely Personal

#30 Bonus Story: 5Y - Oxygen

By the way, Aspargus32, did I miss one of your bonus stories? I wasn't able to find the one for issue #28 in the comments, but it's possible I've just missed it.

PKNA #29, a bonus story - and German comics



Potentially very exciting news for German readers: The new Lustiges Taschenbuch Premium is out - and it collects the first four issues of PKNA along with a few bonus stories, some of which have never been published in German before!

Now, how awesome would it be to have an official German translation of the PKNA series? I know the series was originally cancelled after issue #12, but if there's enough interest in these premium books, Germany might actually see the series continue past that point. They might even finally do the whole series!

So if you're German, hurry out and buy this thing! Let's show Disney that there's a market for our favorite series in Germany, and that there's good reason to continue the series past this first book.

Heck, if Germany starts selling PKNA again, it might spread to other countries as well. And I know of quite a few European countries where the fans were disappointed when the series ended too soon.

Oooh, and also:


PKNA#29 - Virus

And

#27 Bonus story: 5Y - Gossip

Banker and Aspargus32 are awesome as always. By the way, did you see that Banker is planning a motion comic based on 'Fragments of Autumn'?

PKNA #28 - Metamorphosis + bonus story #26


Banker is back with another issue INCLUDING the bonus story AND featuring some beautifully rendered bonus pages. And if that wasn't enough, Aspargus32 has finished another bonus story.

PKNA#28 - Metamorphosis

PKNA #26 Bonus Story: 5Y - Too Salt to Taste

Also, here's a little treat that a fan drew my attention to: The Secret Origin of the Duck Avenger - not the avenger we know, but one that was made as an attempt to introduce the character to American audiences.



As a fan of the Duck Avenger, the first thing you'll probably notice is that everything is just incredibly, horribly wrong. Donald is called on by his uncle Ludvig von Drake to battle the evil Zondarrians who have stolen the Universal Code from Earth... It's all pretty silly.

But it's interesting to read, and I've actually been looking for these comics for years, after having read the first part as a child. So a huge thanks to the anonymous poster for bringing it to my attention.

Actually - and I'm a bit embarrassed to admit this - these entirely silly comics are probably the main reason this site is called "PKNA - Adventures of the Duck Avenger" rather than "PKNA - Adventures of Superduck". Disney has changed the official name of the character several times, so it was hard to determine what was the proper translation when we started out.

I preferred the sound of The Duck Avenger, so that's what I went with. Looking back, I actually suspect that this American mini-comic is the only time Paperinik was actually called by the Duck Avenger name in an official Disney comic. Since then, Disney seems to have settled on calling him Superduck.

Still, we're more than 30 comics in now, so it seems a bit late to change the name of the main character. Calling him Superduck at this stage would just seem weird (to me, at least). Plus, I just plain like the Duck Avenger name. So I think we'll keep it.

Even if the comic it came from IS hilariously silly. Remember to check it out, by the way. :)

PKNA #26 - Time flies AND MMMM #1 - The Link

Sorry I'm late with this, guys, I was out of the country for a while. But in the meantime both Banker and zvbxrpl have finished awesome new issues:


PKNA #26 - Time Flies


MMMM #1 - The Link

(Feel completely free to just ignore the end pages of MMMM, by the way. Apparently someone at Disney decided that the whole series was just TOO bad-ass, and some silly "Oh-wait-it's just-a-film"-framing device was added. Far as I can tell, the story still works perfectly well if you just ignore the final pages and assume that everything is really happening, so that's what I'M gonna do.)

Also, Aspargus32 is getting back to translating bonus stories, so we'll probably see a lot more of those soon, too. Cool, isn't it?

Which reminds me, are there any Italian speakers out there who might be interested in translating some of the bonus content we tend to skip, but which is actually really awesome? We used to do bonus content in blog post-format - like this, this, or this - but only for issues #6-#11.
So if somebody's interested in picking that up again, let me know. If you do the words, I'll take care of the formatting. :)

PKNA #25 - Crossfire + a few other things


Banker actually posted this a few days ago. My apologies for not putting it up right away.

Also, this is one of my favorite issues ever. Tito Faraci is awesome.

PKNA #25 - Crossfire

Also of interest: PKNA #24 had a few errors, so Banker has made a fixed version:
PKNA #24 - Twilight (FIXED)

AND he's also done a remastered version of PKNA #22:
PKNA #22 - Fragments of Autumn

Awesome, innit?

PKNA #24 - Twilight


New issue! Featuring NO sparkly vampires, but SEVERAL high-tech cyber-Vikings.

PKNA #24 - Twilight

PKNA #23 - Memory Lapse


Banker's back with another issue!

PKNA #23 - Memory Lapse

PKNA #22 - Fragments of Autumn + bonus stories


Bonus stories by Aspargus32, and issue #22 by Banker. But you've probably figured out the system by now.

PKNA #21 Bonus - Starring the Great Burton laValle
PKNA #22 - Fragments of Autumn
PKNA #22 Bonus - Extracts from the Info Guide S.U.P.E.R.

Unfortunately MegaUpload has been taken down (the entire site!), so we're down to our MediaFire links now. I'll probably set up some mirrors soon, just in case, but for now this is what we have.

I have a request for anyone who'll help me, though: We're missing issues #0-#11 because they were only hosted on MegaUpload. The files are still somewhere on my computer, but it'll take me a while to find them and make sure it's actually the final version. My back-up file-keeping isn't particularly organized.

So if you happen to have downloaded some or all of these issues from the site and have them readily available, could you upload them on MediaFire and post a link in the comments? I'd appreciate the help very much.

PKNA #21 - Tyrannic


Banker's back with another issue.

PKNA special 1998 - Zero Slash One


There are times when I love this site. And there are times when I REALLY love this site. When it means I get to read a brand-new issue of PKNA that was never published in my country, I really, really love this site.

Huge thanks to Banker for yet another great translation.

Oh, and scroll down for the PKNA #20 bonus story, in case you missed it.

BONUS COMICS + MICKEY MOUSE MYSTERY MAGAZINE



Two great things this time: Aspargus32 has finished translations of all the missing bonus stories, AND zvbxrpl has finished the first issue of the very awesome Mickey Mouse Mystery Magazine. (Of course, Duck Avenger translations are still going on. But seriously, check out this bad-ass mouse!)

I love these people.

PKNA #19 - Absolute Zero



Main story translated by Banker, back-up story translated by Aspargus32.

Megaupload:
PKNA #19 - Absolute Zero
Bonus #19 - Burton LaValle

MediaFire:
PKNA #19 - Absolute Zero
Bonus #19 - Burton LaValle

Big thanks to Banker for continuing to be awesome, and to Aspargus32 for doing the back-up feature. We're still missing back-up features on a lot of the previous issues, so if anyone out there feels like taking them on, I know lots of people will appreciate it.


Also, it only just occurred to me that most of the recent uploads have been CBR-files, and some people might have had trouble opening them. CBR is a format made specifically for reading comics on the computer, and there are are a number of free programs you can use to read them. Me, I use Comical, but I'm sure somebody in the comments can probably make a good argument for any number of the other options.

If you don't want to use any new software, CBR-files can be easily converted to RAR-files, simply by changing the name of the file extension - so you can just change "PKNA19.cbr" to "PKNA19.rar" and it will work.

I'll probably make some RAR-file mirrors one of these days, just to avoid confusion.
