“Den frygtløse pirat” highlights our favorite trademarked-by-Disney Duck in the position he’s been presented on at least a couple of times; the role of an actor. Rather it be on stage or, in this case, for a feature film. The role he’s selected to play as is the role of the dreaded pirate captain “Featherbeard The Terrible” (who 100% is a real person and not the duck version of Blackbeard, which is funny in this case because nowhere in this comic does Donald dons a beard, but you know, it fits). The comic is also another member of the (for some on-godly) series of comics where a character gets a short-term version of Amnesia and thinks he or she is someone else. This happens ALOT with Donald and especially with Scrooge, which I feel like that’s not very healthy for someone his age.

This story is one of dozens upon dozens of comics drawn by the masterful Paco Rodriguez, who’s penciled layouts are chock full of perfectly solid characters and poses that are both easy to tell what the action is conveying and are so full of life. The scenes where the staged ship is being dragged across the heavy waves with Donald and the other actors struggling to stay aboard is nothing but beautiful and so jammed packed with action and excitement. I will say though, that I do wish we had atleast an extra page of the ship landing in the park’s fountain, because it does feel like something was cut off. It’s weird because most of the Denmark Donald stories usually are exactly 10 pages, so this being only 9 definitely shows that they had at least a page left to tighten the blot just a small bit. Not really an issue, but something I noticed in which is otherwise a pretty solid donald story.

Considering this IS Donald, I know that bandana peel was all Fate's fault (But knowing how often Donald blames him for his own nonsense, I see it more as revenge) 

Donald did NOT study on who he was playing if his OWN confused mind thinks his crew swabbing the deck is considered a punishment for disobeying orders. Maintaining the ship's KINDA their job if they're not on battle.

Could you imagine opening up the window shades of your house and you suddenly see a GOD DAMN WATER TORNADO just sliding across town as if it's on its way to work?

The director of that film must REALLY know Donald if he picked him for the role of the guy whose empire committed Mutiple acts of mass Genocide. Also, you KNOW Donald dragged the kids into the theater to watch that shit!
