When Euro-Nerds Divorce…

imageA divorce gets ugly with a 1948 Donald Duck comic, or as it seems to be known in Sweden, Kalle Anka, at its center. I have absolutely nothing to add to this story, but thought it was amusing enough to mention. Given the mainstream status of Disney comics and the money involved, this isn't really even a nerd culture thing, necessarily. You know, you often hear of craziness involving comics and marriage, such as stories involving limits negotiated as to how many comics can be kept and how they can be displayed, but as more and more women return to reading comics I imagine divorce-settlement collection splits are something we'll start to see more frequently, and not based on Overstreet value alone.

I have no idea if this is the right comic book, but it is from 1948.
