Double Duck (Comic Book) | comment |
A parking ticket leads Donald Duck to realise he's actually a former sleeper agent for Cloak and Dagger Government Agency of Fiction, The Agency. However, one of their agents has become a Double Agent and taken a MacGuffin; the world isn't going to save itself, so he's back on the job as Agent Double Duck!Created in Italy, the storyline was introduced in April, 2008; it was written by Marco Bosco and Fausto Vitaliano. It has proven popular enough to become its own separate canon... Until a 2016 crossover story confirmed several ties to Paperinik New Adventures universe.Not to be confused with "Double-O-Duck", the DuckTales (1987) episode featuring Launchpad McQuack in a spy pastiche. | |

Non-Mammal Mammaries: Kay K is pretty... forthright for a character in a Disney comic. Then again, it seems Disney Italy has a record for that sort of thing... In the first story-arc, when she's wearing a classy opera dress, even the flat chested Daisy gets cleavage. Yes. Daisy. However this is more a case of Depending on the Artist. | |

He then gives him the first lesson: never trust an enemy. | |

Femme Fatale Spy: Kay K; in her first appearance she has no qualms about using her beauty to manipulate male characters like Donald. She was the criminal Red Primerose, who introduced herself in the Agency by secretly replacing the director Jay J. After all, she did say that all good spies lie and that Red Primerose wasn't necessarily a man... | |

Good All Along | |
Double Duck (Comic Book) / int_5f611b7e | comment |
Kay K rides a few rounds on this in the early stories. In the very first story, she appears to be an allied agent, but turns out to be the mastermind of the entire plot against the Agency. In her next appearance, however, she saves Donald's life and explains that she was only pretending to be bad, on the orders of the Big Boss, in order to infiltrate the Organization. Instantly after this, she tricks Donald into helping her steal a few million euros from the Organization's HQ, seemingly without the Agency's knowledge. Then she comes back to Donald and warns him that he has a price on his head... After all this, she is firmly established on the side of the Agency in her next appearance (at least until Reboot, that is), meaning she was either Good All Along or rather Easily Forgiven. | |

Turns out he was there, retiring from The Agency. Throughout the first story arc, he tries to get out of paying it, but the Vast Bureaucracy stumps him and he finally pays the fine. | |

Dolled-Up Installment: Double Duck and Kay K are saved by Wilson, an agent of SHUSH.

However, the twist remains the same. | |

Wham Episode | |
Double Duck (Comic Book) / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: Three of them: The "Timecrime" crossover establishes that the series is set in the same continuity as Paperinik New Adventures and the PIA series (a series of stories where Donald and Fethry worked as secret agents to protect Scrooge's economic empire). It also shows that PKNA's Organization was created by Axel Alpha and a traitorous Time Cop, and named after its Double Duck counterpart. "Reboot" may not be a literal reboot of the series, but changes everything: the Agency has been officially disbanded, with some of their members, including Donald and led by Liz Zago, continuing their activity illegally anyway; the Direction, the criminally incompetent replacement of the Agency, is not only completely ineffective, but has revealed to the public the identities of the Agency's spies except Double Duck before forcing them into being glorified security guards and has driven Kay back to crime; Head-H has faked undergoing the Total Reset Button and betrayed the Agency's loyalists to the Direction, before the remnants of the Agency hits him with the real TRB; Donald arrests Kay; the Organization is apparently taken down for good, or at least made harmless, partly thanks to the help of the new spionistic organization Actinia, that has also recruited Kay; the Agency remnants are now fully independent from the government and rely on an anonymous backer for funding. "Enemies as Usual" gets rid of Actinia-and reveals that the anonymous backer is none else than Rockerduck, who also created Actinia to begin with. | |

Sarcastic Confession: Twice. The first time, tired of lying to her, he admits to Daisy he's a spy. Daisy, who previously fell for Donald's immense bullshit, believes it's a joke. In the "Agent Zero" storyline Donald confesses to being Paperinik (Duck Avenger) to Daisy, also with Kay K present. Doesn't count for Daisy, who gets her memory wiped immediately after, but for Kay K and the Agency... | |

MacGuffin: Quite a few of these, some of them playing with the trope itself; Donald's first on-page mission involves obtaining a briefcase which contains Kay K's tuna sandwich (in all fairness, it was a test). Later on, Marlo Burke is after what he thinks is the registry containing all the names of The Agency's operatives. It's actually the file which would allow him to bypass the encryption of the registry, which is in the basement of The Agency. His own Playful Hacker assumes it's all nonsense, so he calls the whole thing off. | |

Shout-Out | |
Double Duck (Comic Book) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The series has quite a few shout-outs to James Bond films: In the first story, Donald needs a password to enter a bar. The password (which he tricks out of the bouncer) is Goldfinger. The Hong Island scene features an underwater lair/laboratory that is located under a volcano, which might remind you of Blofeld's lair in You Only Live Twice. In one Hong Island panel Kay K stands on a beach in a bikini, with a knife strapped on her hip and holding a bag of seashells, in an obvious homage to Honey Ryder's introductory scene from Dr. No. Donald's first mission with the Agency (recounted in a prolonged flashback) involved him taking part in a high-stakes casino game in order to find out who is sponsoring a rival player — a setup that rather obviously mirrors Casino Royale. At the end of the story mentioned above, an unconscious (and partly-amnesiac) Donald is found floating in the sea by the crew of a fishing boat — not unlike a certain other secret agent with the initials "JB". And, of course, one of the stories (and the prologue to one of the story arcs) features an in-universe spy film whose main character's Italian name is James Tond. ("James Pond" in the English translation.) The actor once got replaced by an actual enemy spy. There's also a lot of shoutouts to Paperinik New Adventures, which makes sense considering the team making Double Duck is mostly composed by people who previously worked on that. The most blatant one is the country of Belgravia, which first appeared in PKNA (with a map to show it's location), then returned in Double Duck (with an identical map), with mentions of president Nestor Grimka (who appeared in the final PKNA Belgravia story, admitting he was about to retire) and his not-so-smart son Grigorji (who here has succeeded him). All the PKNA and Double Duck stories featuring Belgravia were created by writer Francesco Artibani. A less blatant one is Bruce Wong's training - It's similar to a scene from PK2, but it differs in that Lyla Lay gets thrown by her instructor (rather than kicked), who then tells her to never trust anyone (essentially the same message, but phrased differently). One of the exclusive covers for the Boom edition (on Donald Duck and Friends 250) is a reference to the first cover of Incorruptible, published by the same editor. | |

Corrupt Corporate Executive: Marlo Burke, who even in his public guise is considered a "notorious financier". Turns out his private life is even worse, as he likes to indulge himself in a spot of theft in order to get access to secret organisations, so he can blackmail his way to get even more access to other secret organisations. John Rockerduck reprises his role from the PIA stories. | |

Ship Tease: Kay K often seems very affectionate to Donald and sometimes flirts with him.

Naturally she claims to Daisy that they are Just Friends, but then again, she is a good liar. | |

"Reboot" may not be a literal reboot of the series, but changes everything: the Agency has been officially disbanded, with some of their members, including Donald and led by Liz Zago, continuing their activity illegally anyway; the Direction, the criminally incompetent replacement of the Agency, is not only completely ineffective, but has revealed to the public the identities of the Agency's spies except Double Duck before forcing them into being glorified security guards and has driven Kay back to crime; Head-H has faked undergoing the Total Reset Button and betrayed the Agency's loyalists to the Direction, before the remnants of the Agency hits him with the real TRB; Donald arrests Kay; the Organization is apparently taken down for good, or at least made harmless, partly thanks to the help of the new spionistic organization Actinia, that has also recruited Kay; the Agency remnants are now fully independent from the government and rely on an anonymous backer for funding. | |

FaceHeelRevolvingDoor | |
Double Duck (Comic Book) / int_eca97994 | comment |
Face–Heel Revolving Door: Kay K rides a few rounds on this in the early stories. In the very first story, she appears to be an allied agent, but turns out to be the mastermind of the entire plot against the Agency. In her next appearance, however, she saves Donald's life and explains that she was only pretending to be bad, on the orders of the Big Boss, in order to infiltrate the Organization. Instantly after this, she tricks Donald into helping her steal a few million euros from the Organization's HQ, seemingly without the Agency's knowledge. Then she comes back to Donald and warns him that he has a price on his head... After all this, she is firmly established on the side of the Agency in her next appearance (at least until Reboot, that is), meaning she was either Good All Along or rather Easily Forgiven. On a country level with Belgravia. They first debuted in Paperinik New Adventures as a People's Republic of Tyranny bent on world conquest, then in their last story president Nestor Grimka announces they'll get out of the spreading chaos business and he's going to retire, and when Belgravia reappears in "Double Duck" with Grimka's son in charge they're back at their tricks. | |

Double Reverse Quadruple Agent | |
Double Duck (Comic Book) / int_f4379d92 | comment |
Double Reverse Quadruple Agent: This is Kay K's explanation for her actions when she shows up to save Donald in Souvenir de Paris. And to stay true to the trope, she proceeds to trick Donald instantly afterwards (see Face–Heel Revolving Door below), so he can't be fully certain whose side she is on at the end of the story. Her next appearance establishes her as a very loyal Agency agent, but it is never fully explained whether she truly was this or simply a Boxed Crook pressed into service by the Big Boss. Although, Reboot seems to lean towards the latter. In more general terms, the Big Boss is pretty enamored with this trope. Apart from Kay K, Jay J, Gizmo, and — in one famous occasion — Donald himself get to try their hand at being one on his orders. | |
