Andold "Wild Duck" Temerary

Andold "Wild Duck" Temerary (original Italian name: Mac Paperin) is a fictional character created by Gaudenzio Capelli and Marco Rota for The Walt Disney Company. He appears in stories set in the Middle Ages, as a lookalike and probably ancestor to Donald Duck. Andold was a commander who protected the shores of Caledonia (Scotland) from vikings.

He has a girlfriend named Aydis who looks Daisy Duck, and he also has five soldiers, two of them are named Little Bo and Big Brutus.

In the first Andold story ("Paperino e il piccolo Krack" from 1975), Donald dreams about Andold, in the second ("Le avventure di Mac Paperin: L'arrosto della salvezza" from 1980, published in the USA as "Donald Duck and his fierce ancestor... Andold Wild Duck"), Huey, Dewey and Louie are reading a book about his adventures. In later Andold stories, the modern-day Ducks do not appear. All Andold Wild Duck stories are illustrated by Marco Rota, most of them are also written by him.

Andold has made four appearances in North America:

• Donald Duck Adventures #23: "Andold Wild Duck" (interestingly, not the first Andold story produced)

• Donald Duck #300: "Andold Wild Duck and the Runestone's Curse"

• Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #630: "Andold Wild Duck in Love and War"

• Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #663: "Andold Wild Duck: Mightier Than the Sword"
