MAIN STORY

The series premiered in 1987. Stopped in 1994 after 169 issues, but continued during 2006 (6 issues).

The stories feature diverse characters from the Walt Disney universe with emphasis on Urtigão who was introduced as Hard Haid Moe in the USA in 1964. He is a (stereo)typical hillbilly from the isolated mountains and countrysides, and is often accompanied by a flappy dog and a potent shotgun.

The character is one of a few of Disney's comic book characters who is actually a human being.
