- Mouseton
Mouseton is a fictional US city in
Disney comics . Located in the fictional United States state ofCalisota , Mouseton is the hometown ofMickey Mouse ,Goofy ,Minnie Mouse ,Clarabelle Cow , and others in Disney comics produced byDisney Italia ,Disney-Hachette (France), andGemstone Publishing (USA). Curiously in Disney comics published by Egmont (Scandinavia),Abril (Brazil) and Ehapa (Germany), Mickey lives in the same city asDonald Duck ,Duckburg , even though Mickey and Donald only rarely team up in shared comics adventures.The first time a city for Mickey and his friends appeared was in the 50es in Italy, where it is called "Topolinia" (from "Topolino", 'little mouse', the Italian name of
Mickey Mouse ), while the name Mouseton was first used in "Mickey Mouse Adventures ", an American comic book published byDisney Comics, Inc. in 1990-91, and in Disney's contemporary reprints of vintage stories in "Walt Disney's Comics and Stories " (1991-93). Later publisherGemstone continued this tradition from 2003 onward. Strangely, in-between licensee Gladstone (1993-99) usually left Mickey's city unnamed, or — very rarely — referenced it as Duckburg.Mouseton's location in Calisota and its positioning with regard to Duckburg (the cities being next to one another) were the subject of speculation early on, but have generally been treated consistently in Gemstone's publications.
