Missed the vote, congrats worstblogever
Appropriately a Duck in a Bunny-suit runs off with the prize!

And always nice to see any love for the 3 Caballeros out there.

....because I'm a 3 Caballeros mark.

I loved the 3 Caballeros cartoons

Detail, ...noticed!

Congratulations, worstblogever! Thanks to Iron Maiden and Javasaurus for the shout outs.

Congratulations to worstblogever for a cover which combined the questions "What the duck?" and "Why a duck?".

The peak of the week where the colorful captain explains what he has learned is again somewhat lacking this week. He apologizes. Donald Duck is, indeed, the everyman of the Disney cartoon empire. He allows us to laugh at our foibles and to recognize those flaws in our character and with our very natures. He lives his live, as fraught with circumstances and bizarre family members as ours are. Of all the Disney characters I have met, Donald is the most ... human.

As for "Why a Duck?" skip to the 3:05 minute mark. Couldn't find an isolated clip but it's all Chico's best moments. This one and the contract scene from A Night at the Opera are my favorites. Enjoy everyone.

Runners up

Guicho - I loved the 3 Caballeros cartoons
Shalla Bal - that wrap around cover must be pretty rare
Nschornhorts - Love the setting

Thanks for the shout out, Iron Maiden.

I've noticed there are other Disney wraparound covers from Dell, mostly for the giant-sized summer (vacation) issues and also for winter holiday issues. I've posted another example below. These giant issues were not just comics -- they were events!

[Javasaurus]

Congratulations on the win, worstblogever!

Thanks for the votes Nschornhorst, nx01a, ChadH, ed2962, and Kirby101. There were some fun covers this week; I'm glad you enjoyed the Van Gogh spin.

You're welcome Shalla Bal. I always thought that the wraparound covers started in the 80s or so. Now I see that Dell was being very innovative there! The art looks painted too. Do you know the background on that?
