Paperinik New Adventures is perhaps one of the strangest (at least to non-Italians) but most interesting titles produced by Italian Disney comics.The main character? Paperinik (known in anglophone countries as Duck Avenger, Superduck, Phantom Duck, and a lot of other names), a small-time superhero who has been defending the city of Duckburg against its criminals for years in the Duck comics universe. You probably know him better as his civilian personality, Donald Duck.In an obvious case of Italians Love Donald Duck, the character of Paperinik was created way back in 1969 as a Gentleman Thief Secret Identity to make Donald Duck less of a loser and capitalize upon the success this kind of stories was having in the country at the time (see Diabolik, which also inspired Paperinik's name — "Paperino" is Donald Duck's Italian name), but he quickly switched from avenging the wrongs he suffered in his Donald Duck persona to generally fighting crime, thanks to the various super-gadgets built for him by Gyro Gearloose. For more than a quarter century many stories about him were written, most of them totally out of continuity, and some even contradicting previously established facts, with the popularity of the character waxing and waning in cycles, though he was always well-received.In the mid-1990s, the italian Disney Comics experimented a rapid diversification with a wave of new talents (Paolo Mottura, Tito Faraci, Alberto Lavoradori, Casty...) eager to experiment beyond the established formulas of the past decades and to tackle more adult themes. During a phase of lack of inspiration for the "classic" Paperinik stories, PKNA came in as an attempt to write single-issue adventures that would fit into an over-arching continuity; a "disruptive" project commissioned to a group of mostly young talents, who had no problem admitting that they were "trying to play Marvel". This was the first comic book that Disney Italy published in the American comic book form factor, further emphasizing the attempt to compete with them on their own ground. (In a twist of irony, Disney now owns Marvel.)It all starts when, while patrolling the city, Paperinik runs into a TV star being attacked by aliens, and all his weapons prove to be useless against them; he's only saved by the intervention of the police. Soon afterwards, Donald Duck gets a job as the caretaker of his uncle's new purchase, a 150-floor-tall skyscraper called Ducklair Tower, built and previously owned by the genius inventor and eccentric billionaire, Everett Ducklair, who retired from the public eye some time ago. Donald accidentally discovers that the building actually has 151 floors: the "secret floor" is home to an AI called One, by Ducklair, the original owner of the building, who decides to assist Paperinik in his new battles against time-pirates, mad scientists and alien invaders where his old gear would be of no help. And Paperinik is going to need all the help he can get, because he is soon facing major disasters, and even battles for the very future of planet Earth.Paperinik New Adventures ran for 52 issues (March, 1996 - January, 2001) plus four special issues detailing various elements of the Back Story and focusing on minor characters. It was followed by another series in the same continuity, PK2, which subjected the premise to somewhat of a Retooling; this sequel saw Everett Ducklair return to reassume ownership of Ducklair Tower, whereupon he deactivated One, and politely, but firmly informed Paperinik that he was cutting off his access to the 151th floor, leaving the hero without his Home Base, most of his technology, and even his main helper and confidant, forcing Donald to having to content with almost starting over from scratch and look for a new hideout. PK2, however, was not quite as successful as its predecessor, and ended after 18 issues and one special. It was, in turn, followed by an Ultimate Universe continuity reboot, called simply PK or Pikappa, which lasted 32 issues, but was overall even less successful. The first series, considered one of the finest things Disney ever made by a very loyal fan community, has been re-printed several times.The series also reignited interest in the classic Paperinik, who has gotten many new stories since, and even a monthly magazine publishing both old and new stories, called "Paperinik Appgrade" and then simply "Paperinik", since 2012; meanwhile, rumors of a new PKNA series proved to be just that for many years. This changed in late 2013: series creators Francesco Artibani and Tito Faraci announced a return of the series, as a direct sequel to PKNA and PK2, thanks to the interest of the new Italian publisher of Disney comics (which, in a further twist of irony, is the same that's been publishing Marvel comics in Italy for years).Since 2014, the franchise has been relaunched in several directions. PK Universe, published on Paperinik Appgrade, stars the classic Paperinik along with characters from PKNA, and explicitly without One and the advanced gadgetry, counting on Gyro Gearloose's inventions and with economic support from Scrooge McDuck. It started with a five-part miniseries, written by Faraci, where the hero has to deal with the Evronians. Following stories in the same magazine are set in this new continuity, but after little more than a year of publication, it's been put on hold. A large-format reprint of the original series called "PK Giant - 3K Edition", with new covers by the original artists, a return of the beloved fan mail section and new extras. Publication was suspended at issue #43, but has later resumed in 128-page double issues to finish the series within 2019. The 1997 and 1998 Specials have been reprinted into a single big issue; the 1999 Special, however, has been reprinted alone. PK Tube is a series of short stories that were published in the Mickey Mouse magazine starting in March 2016, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of issue #0 of PKNA. Some are centered on memories of One through time, while others expand on episodes of both the older and newer stories. The proper return of PK, informally called Paperinik New Era (PKNE) started with the four-part storyline Might and Power in 2014. Published in the weekly Italian Mickey Mouse magazine (Topolino) and are set an unspecified amount of time after the end of PK2. Further PKNE storylines were published in the same magazine aperiodically, just like Double Duck; six more have been made between 2015 and 2018, with Collector's Editions published a few months after the magazine's. This also included a crossover with Double Duck, with Donald having to deal with both identities. The series left Topolino in 2019 and moved into a new series of hardcover books called Topolino Fuoriserie alongside an also relaunched Wizards of Mickey, with 11 further PKNE storylines having been published as of 2023.For a long time, the original series has had no official translation into English; only part of the reboot, Pikappa, had been made available in English with the title Superduck. In August 2016, PKNA began getting an official English release as Duck Avenger through IDW Publishing... only for it to be suspended after six issues due to low sales, leaving once again scanlations as the only way for English speakers to read PKNA, PK2 and the rest of Pikappa.A video game based on the comics, Disney's PK: Out of the Shadows, was made and released in English in 2002, but failed to attract a substantial audience and was only loosely related to the comics. A second video game, The Duckforce Rises, was released for mobile phones in 2015. It features a mix of the classic Paperinik with the DuckTales universe.Compare Darkwing Duck, another Disney series about a superheroic waterfowl.Oh, and give the recap page some love. | |

It's a Disney series, that features Donald Duck as it's protagonist. So far so good... And then you learn that the main plot is derived from a genocide event. To say nothing of the extensive casualties, and assorted Apocalypse How incidents. | |

Diabolus ex Nihilo: Morgoth from PK2 #13, a giant humanoid lizard with an armor and a weapon made of morphing metal. When we are introduced to him, it's implied that he and Paperinik have been clashing for some time already. Justified because he's not real, he's part of the virtual reality where Paperinik is trapped. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Unquestionably so, if compared to the not-quite-Marvel-like Paperinik stories from the more family-friendly Topolino (Italian for Mickey Mouse) weekly comic book.note New Era stories, however, are published in it and Might and Power is probably the darkest story on the magazine in years To clarify, the first volume of the trade paperback Compilation Re-release features a behind-the-scenes about how the series came to be: it includes such stuff as "Duckburg becoming a big metropolis like the Gotham City seen in the movies, although obviously not as dark", and some ideas go as far as having "dream fights in A Nightmare on Elm Street-like situations (within Disney-level limits!)". The fact that characters are actually Killed Off for Real is only a natural consequence. If anything, PK2 is even darker: complex familiar relationships, dramatic focus on abusive love interests, an ally turned into an ambiguous figure willing to manipulate the minds of others with chips planted in their brains... the list goes on. Despite being published on the same weekly magazine that periodically hosts the classic Paperinik stories, New Era storylines haven't become lighter in the slightest. Since Might and Power, where he's been thrusted back into action to prevent an especially bleak Bad Future that started with his assassination, the hero has faced new or renewed threats that make the ones from PKNA and PK2 pale in comparison. | |

Big, Screwed-Up Family | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_154aa477 | comment |
Big, Screwed-Up Family: Where do we even begin with the Ducklairs? First off, the father: Everett is one of the smartest minds on the planet but his Science-Related Memetic Disorder caused him to turn everything he touched in a superweapon. It took him several years of meditation far away from civilization to resolve that. He is also an alien escaped from planet Corona. He brought his daughters with him, to save them from becoming the queens of said planet. Unfortunately, due to a series of accidents upon their arrival on Earth, he left them when they were children and found them again as adults. He still has regrets over this. His daughters, Korinna and Juniper, are basically two kids trapped in adult bodies, and they refuse to forgive him. They also plan to turn Earth into a new Corona. And then there is Serifa, Everett's wife and Korinna and Juniper's mother, who is just interested in using her children to obtain the title she never got. Man, is this enough for everybody? | |

The Worf Effect: The Humongous Mecha of the Stalhburg army is destroyed in a single shot by the Evronian Centurion cruiser. In PKNE #5, Trauma is subjected to this twice, although the second time is more justified since his opponent is Moldrock, proving so strong he breaks out of Trauma's fear-inducing powers. | |

The full plot, explained in issue #15's data columns, is a bit more complicated (to the point most readers failed to understand it after multiple re-reading of said column). And includes an Alien Invasion (inspired by Sam's second run-in with the Evronians). In a soap opera! Also, he apparently became a better writer after his first run-in with the Evronians resulted in him getting most of his emotions and intellectual capacity sucked away. | |

Comic-Book Time: Averted, as the series seemingly progresses in real time. In PKNA #30, Two remarks that it has been about two years since his last battle with One (which happened in #8), and in issue #37 Paperinik explains that a few years had passed since he first met Xadhoom. By the New Era stories, however, even if the Evronian conquest of Earth is explicitly said to happen in late 2014, time is probably going to be relative, or Donald would be as aged as he appeared in the Bad Future of PKNA #34, and his nephews in their mid-twenties. The opening narration of the storyline even lampshades this: | |

Xadhoom once thought she could make the Emperor of Evron believe she wasn't a Xerbian in spite of the Evronians having first met her on Xerba, her use of "Remember Xerba the Blue!" as a battlecry, her name being a Xerbian word, and the Evronians having actually masked as Xerbians for a trap (and they actually fooled her for a while, at least until they failed to recognize the name of a very popular dance). The Emperor immediately lampshaded it. | |

Actually a Doombot: In PKNA #22 "Fragments of Autumn" Lyla is put on trial for shooting a human member of the Time Police. He was actually a robot-replica used in a plan to destroy both the droids and the Time Police. In PKNE #7 "Droids" Paperinik himself is revealed to be one at the end, a copy of his personality put into a robotic body. Tyrell Duckard wanted to use it to lure out some other droids he was hunting (PK is well regarded among droids in the 23rd century) for a corrupt client; unfortunately for him, the copy is still a hero and ultimately unravels his plan. | |

Lawful Stupid: The Time Police veers into this at times, trying to make sure the timeline runs its course as it's supposed to no matter what. Case in point, in Issue #3 (The Day of the Cold Sun), when Paperinik and the Raider team up to stop an experimental cold fusion power plant from exploding and taking out a majority of Duckburg along with it, Time Police agents show up to make sure the explosion happens anyway. | |

Chekhov's Gun: A few apparently insignificant things get an expanded role later on: the horrible tie PK got from Newton (no, not that one, nor the other one) was instrumental in saving the whole temporal continuum, the gizmo containing Xadhoom's memories was the MacGuffin of two later stories, Everett Ducklair's cryogenically frozen daughters had been mentioned in the fine print of the blocking of a column about the layout of the Ducklair Tower in issue 0/3 of the first series (they would only appear in PK2), etc. The cronal unit. You know, the one that almost destroyed time itself if it wasn't for Newton's tie. One kept it, just in case... | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Several. The Final Battle between Paperinik and Trauma in PKNA #10 takes place at the Cathedral of Notre Duck, which appeared in a Carl Barks story. In #13 Bravestone, the village attacked by the Evronians, has the same name as a village in another Barks story, and two old citizens speak about a young Scrooge McDuck. From the very first issue of Paperinik Appgrade, references to the PKNA universe often appeared in the magazine. Portraits of PKNA characters could be seen in the extra pages; one of the new stories made for the magazine has Paperinik use a device almost identical to the Extransformer shield, in another Donald's nephews are playing a videogame where an Evronian is seen; the December 2013 issue even features Ducklair Tower on the cover. This would turn out to be the biggest foreshadowing, as PK Universe has started publication on the following issue. | |

| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_3441859b | comment |
Rank Scales with Asskicking: True for Evronians with military power. With the exception of the occasional Giant Mook, low-ranking troopers are as strong as the average human being; officers haven't been shown in physical combat, but are more muscular than the troopers; all known generals but two (an unknown high ranking political general and pre-Super-Soldier Trauma) are tall, muscular and one even survived a direct hit from Xadhoom; members of the Imperial Senate are like the generals, only bigger; finally the Imperial caste have the ability to fire lethal beams from the non-talking head, with the Emperor having serious muscles too and proving he can handily defend himself. Averted with the scientific caste; Zoster is puny, compared to Zondag, though they are considered equal. Played straight again with Gorthan, which went toe-to-toe with a giant robot. | |

The 2014 relaunch story Might and Power shows that the Evronians laid a number of unfertilized spore fields on Earth with the means to fertilize them, and the consequences of not wiping them out: while nobody was looking, Grrodon got to them and had them fertilized, laid other spores to have more warriors plus officers and scientists, and, with the help of Morgan Fairfax's genius and Nebula Faraday's money, put together an army that overran Earth in one month. So, yeah, better wipe them out as soon as they're laid. | |

Ascended Meme: The first three issues were "trial" issues and were numbered 0, 0/2 and 0/3 respectively. One reader asked about issue 0/1, and this developed in a full blown Memetic Mutation. A year later, in the '98 special, the authors put among the summaries of past issues an entry on issue 0/1, complete with nonsensical plot, a mostly white cover with the title logo, the title, and barely anything else, and the actual title was "Zero Slash One". Another year later, they actually published it as the '99 special. | |

Psychopathic Manchild | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_3ae6199a | comment |
Corona, homeworld of Everett Ducklair. Under the facade of a realized utopia where advanced technology and nature have achieved a perfect coexistence, overseen by an illuminate matriarchal government that elects a queen, lies an absurdly strict and competitive society. After a scandal involving a previous queen, who defied the celibacy required with the role, a new system to select future queens was created, consisting in having little girls grow into adulthood inside capsules, to avoid the influence of "useless" emotions. Beside the inherent wrongness of the system, which can only end up creating very emotionally stunted individuals, it's evident that even before, under the apparent harmony lied strong rivalries for the title of queen. A woman who didn't manage to get elected, accepted her boyfriend's marriage proposal only to have daughters and make them fulfill her dream. We are speaking of Serifa, Everett's wife. | |

Crapsaccharine World | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_3b79029a | comment |
Crapsaccharine World Corona, homeworld of Everett Ducklair. Under the facade of a realized utopia where advanced technology and nature have achieved a perfect coexistence, overseen by an illuminate matriarchal government that elects a queen, lies an absurdly strict and competitive society. After a scandal involving a previous queen, who defied the celibacy required with the role, a new system to select future queens was created, consisting in having little girls grow into adulthood inside capsules, to avoid the influence of "useless" emotions. Beside the inherent wrongness of the system, which can only end up creating very emotionally stunted individuals, it's evident that even before, under the apparent harmony lied strong rivalries for the title of queen. A woman who didn't manage to get elected, accepted her boyfriend's marriage proposal only to have daughters and make them fulfill her dream. We are speaking of Serifa, Everett's wife. Through the New Era stories, new menaces are piling up in the universe - a resurrected Evronian threat (which in truth never really got away, since there are multiple Evronian empires), mechanical beings that can absorb stars, multiple energy beings as powerful as Xadhoom if not even more, Corona turned into a dystopia with tech that can now threaten the multiverse. The cosmos outside Earth is increasingly looking like a bad place to be. | |

The last issue of the first series, which is in fact titled "If..." Using Everett with a magic book as a Deus ex Machina, it explores the consequences of the events of #1, #2 and #3 had things gone differently. ...the Evronians managed to kidnap Angus? Evron/Angus hybrids. Really. ...PK still trusted One despite Two's meddling? PK goes in the Cyberspace, but Two attempts a Grand Theft Me on him. ...the Cold Sun experiment was allowed to happen? Duckburg gets destroyed, PK becomes evil, Tear Jerker ensues. | |

Worst News Judgment Ever | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_43964f3 | comment |
Worst News Judgment Ever: Angus, because of the above mentioned parodying. The big difference is that basically no one believes his farfetched theories about Paperinik being the bad guy. Justified: Paperinik collected quite a criminal record in the past, but by now everyone in Duckburg knows that if he was really a criminal he'd start stealing things that are supposed to be impossible to steal while terrifying everyone. | |

| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_443b78cd | comment |
Tranquil Fury: This comic series has the weirdest example of all in Xadhoom, of all people. It's not apparent due the fact she's always killing Evronians in the most painful way she knows while thinking how to make their deaths more humiliating, but then a short story showed her allowing a tiny bit of hatred and rage flow free for a single instant, and kill by indigestion an Evronian cyborg capable to harness the energy of the emotions of everyone in the area. That's how we know she's in Tranquil Fury, that and the fact she ever went in Unstoppable Rage for a single instant she'd become a nova and destroy a solar system. | |

Alternate Continuity | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_450c5a85 | comment |
Alternate Continuity: PKNA started as a sequel to the then-stagnating classic Paperinik stories, and even with an all-new cast beside Donald Duck, it never forgets the origins of Paperinik; this was further stressed by no classic Paperinik stories being made from 1996 to 2000. Over time, however, the series has evolved into this, and it's officially recognized as such by Disney. | |

Always Chaotic Evil | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_4832a3bb | comment |
Always Chaotic Evil: The Evronians are Emotion Eaters that need to attack other races to drain them of the emotions that feed both them and some of their technologies, and cause untold and unneeded destruction for no other reason they can. It's subverted by both a few individual members (especially Gorthan) and the fact that, before Xadhoom exterminated most of them, they were trying to solve the energetic problem (in fact one possible alternative power source was Xadhoom herself, had they managed to keep her captured long enough), and after that a group of survivors prove themselves relatively peaceful when they ask Earth for help, but is later Double Subverted when that same group of survivors use the chance to insert a shape-shifting spy on Earth to prepare a future invasion. In the Pikappa reboot it's shown the Evronians had not always been like that, and imply that they had become that way due a combination of the emotion-powered technology and the war with the Guardians of the Galaxy (in fact, when Zondag changes the timeline to prevent the birth of the Guardians it results in the Evronians becoming peaceful, not using emotion-powered technology anymore and using their dietary needs to free people from bad emotions). | |

Fling a Light into the Future | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_4aafd3c8 | comment |
Fling a Light into the Future: Played straight and subverted with Xadhoom. Before becoming a sun (and thus effectively killing herself for her people's survival), Xadhoom recorded a copy of her mind and immense knowledge. At first it seems subverted, as she also asked her storyteller father to send one last Evronian to steal the recording, so her recorded mind would kill him by handing him the key of her power but not the key to SURVIVE such power. But then is played straight by the fact the surviving Evronians will know she's still around in a way, thus getting a good reason to steer away from her people. Add that Paperinik has the recording and wants to give Xadhoom's mind a new body... Maybe that's why in the future the last Evronian says it was Paperinik to destroy his people. The Xerbians love this trope: the first thing their colony ship Antra did after escaping their fallen homeworld was to search for inhabitated worlds and warn them of the Evron threat, starting with Earth. Sadly, the Antra was intercepted near Saturn. | |

Body Horror: The most important members of the Evronian Imperial Council and the Emperor have two heads, one on their shoulders, and an eyeless one on the tip of their tail. Not horrified yet? Very well. Did I mention that the eyeless tail-head is the one that does the talking? The other has a Breath Weapon. What happens to the Evronian supersoldiers created using Angus as a guinea pig (they appear in the last issue of the first series) that can't get nourishment fast enough. The Predator is a cyborg appearing in PK2 #14. He has been made from a special ops soldier who blew himself up to save his companion (Tempest Gale) and barely survived. A computer screen in his control room tells that only 20% of his original body was salvaged. | |

Women Are Wiser | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_565106b3 | comment |
Women Are Wiser: With the possible exception of Lyla Lay (and even that is debatable) this comic is mostly an inversion of this trope: Paperinik and One must act as rationable and level-headed yins to Xadhoom's brash, angry and irreverent yang, while Everett is way more in control than his daughters and an infinitely better parent than his wife. | |

Fantastic Racism | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: Many human timepolicemen in PKNA consider their droid "coworkers" as disposable machines despite them being as intelligent and able to feel emotions as them. Also in #36 two Evronians soldiers joke about the biological inferiority of Xerbians. | |

Government Conspiracy | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_5a4aa505 | comment |
Government Conspiracy: The US Army even held negotiates with Evronian emissaries for some time, and actively works to keep the public at large from knowing of the Evronians and their attempts at invasion. They are not completely wrong, since widespread panic could be even worse. The first confrontations between them and Paperinik are obviously not friendly, but they are able to find a commond ground after PK saves a base from an Evronian attack. Unless the Government manages a huge cover-up, the Evronian attack on the Ducklair Tower in the last part of PKNE Might and Power should have made the existence of the Evronians public. Even more considering they'll have to explain the sudden disapperance of the tower. | |

We Come in Peace — Shoot to Kill | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_5e544ae6 | comment |
We Come in Peace — Shoot to Kill: The Evronians did it with Xerba, as the Xerbian orbital defenses were too powerful for a frontal assault. They did it again with Earth, though it was for the opposite reason: no orbital defences, but earthlings are far too determined to be defeated by a small scout fleet, and assembling a bigger fleet would be impractical. | |

Time Bomb | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_5fc3eff4 | comment |
Time Bomb: It doesn't need to be a bomb. In PKNA #4 ("Earthquake") it's an earthquake machine — of course, it's disarmed Just in Time. And when the bomb cannot be disarmed, it can be thrown towards an enemy (#7, "Invasion"). Sometimes it's a Self-Destruct Mechanism; e.g. in PKNA #12 (the countdown cannot be stopped, of course; someone will have to self-sacrifice and take the damage) and #15. Subverted in PKNA #31: the bad guy just clicks his remote, and one hundred bombs go off. | |

Off the Rails: in Pikappa #10 No Return, Pk derails his exam's scenario beyond any repair by destroying the (fake) black hole that trapped the ship, and proving that the instructor officer faked his own death in order to test all the examined Guardians in a high-stress situation. Unlike the average examples of this trope, the instructor praises Pk, and awards him a full score. | |

Bunny-Ears Lawyer | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_61b8f9e2 | comment |
Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Eugene Photomas, widely considered one of the best lawyers of the 23th century... now, if only he could remember which case they were discussing... Sam Plot, writer for the soap opera "Anxieties". Before being partially coolflamed, he changed the main actor since the previous one was temporarily missing (kidnapped). Later in the series, after the first actor resurfaces, he rewrites this as the two actors being two different main characters, long lost twins who were Separated at Birth and are now reunited. And have the exact same name. The full plot, explained in issue #15's data columns, is a bit more complicated (to the point most readers failed to understand it after multiple re-reading of said column). And includes an Alien Invasion (inspired by Sam's second run-in with the Evronians). In a soap opera! Also, he apparently became a better writer after his first run-in with the Evronians resulted in him getting most of his emotions and intellectual capacity sucked away. | |

Bavarian Fire Drill | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_62fd5552 | comment |
Bavarian Fire Drill: One of Paperinik's usual tricks is this: walking in whatever place he's infiltrating while wearing some disguise, issue orders or demands, and wait for everyone to fall for it. His greatest hit so far comes from the PKNE story "Chronicle of a Return", where he used the fact the new group of Evronians had lost all their officers and was led by the only surviving sergeant to take over command of their Planet Spaceship by telling them he was an ally and that the emperor would be pissed if they bothered him just for that. | |

Death World | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_63557923 | comment |
Death World: Armadha, Colonel Neopard's homeworld, is a minor example: its mostly covered by its four deserts (two hot, two cold), and it'd have barely breathable air if it weren't for the air factories. Main export: its inhabitants. The Well in the Ultimate-like reboot PK was retooled to be this: it's a small planetoid that has only one day of sunlight per year. Its wildlife is usually in hibernation, only waking up during that day - and it's absolutely vicious, making the Well an extremely dangerous place. The Evronians use it as a testing ground for mutated soldiers: if a model survives, it's considered good enough to be mass-produced. | |

Jerkass Has a Point: Angus always calls Paperinik a criminal and tries to expose him as such. In his first stories, Paperinik was treated as a thief and a criminal, and it was implied the police stopped trying to arrest him because they had realized they had no chance. Angus' fake interview to a CGI Paperinik in PKNA #1 "Shadows on Venus" states that Paperinik was a nobody who took his costumed identity to get respect. Even though Angus doesn't know it, Donald's original motive to become Paperinik was to get even with those who treated him like a nobody. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: "Xadhoom", in Xerbian, means "Creditor", as the Evrons "owe her her race". Odin Eidolon: "odin" means "one" in Russian, "eidolon" means "image" or "mirror" in Greek. In fact, Odin Eidolon is a mirror image of One. One-shot, Alternate Universe character Deugemo. It means "generated from Two". Angus Fangus, fango meaning mud in Italian, and his less-than-immaculate deontological ethics. The Well. You get thrown in, you can't get out. But you can be dragged up if the Evrons think you are able to do a hard job. And its good counterpart, Time Ø, a prison for timecriminals which is literally outside of time. The letter Ø is only used in Norwegian, Danish, Faroese and some Sami dialects. Thus, it technically exists "Outside" the Latin alphabet used in English and Italian. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: Yes, you read that right: Grrodon the last Evronian, who remained on Earth alone for three centuries after Paperinik destroyed the Evronian Empire, tries to transform the hero into a Coolflame in the future. However, thanks to a gun created by Odin Eidolon, he fails. Desperate, Grrodon steals a flying car and heads for the space, knowing that the car will explode. Can count as an Alas, Poor Villain. | |

Antagonistic Offspring | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_6e23669f | comment |
Antagonistic Offspring: Korinna and Jupiter Ducklair, in PK2, have a deep hatred for their father because they feel robbed them of their destiny to become rulers of the planet Corona, and they don't get any better after Juniper becomes queen. Only by the end of PKNE #6 has some reconciliation between Juniper and Everett been reached. | |

Idiot Ball | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_7286e96d | comment |
Idiot Ball: Once in a while a character does something they know they shouldn't do. The cake goes to Xadhoom, who can sniff Evronian traps very easily and by now knows that they bother fighting her only when they have something new that could hurt her, but she still charges head-on to kill a few more Evronians. PK's inability to remember how Xari looks like, even after seeing an alien who resembled him so much that Xadhoom herself thought it was him. Xadhoom once thought she could make the Emperor of Evron believe she wasn't a Xerbian in spite of the Evronians having first met her on Xerba, her use of "Remember Xerba the Blue!" as a battlecry, her name being a Xerbian word, and the Evronians having actually masked as Xerbians for a trap (and they actually fooled her for a while, at least until they failed to recognize the name of a very popular dance). The Emperor immediately lampshaded it. When Paperinik ends up in a The Lord of the Rings-esque world, he never notices that there's something wrong with Lyla's unusual attitude until the truth is showed right on his face, namely that it isn't Lyla but a shape-shifting droid sent by the Organization to kill the future version of the Raider who has become the ruler of that world. After finding out, however, he's so pissed he utterly trashes the droid. In PKNE Might and Power both hero and villains get the ball in a scene. Using the metamorphic power of his new suit, PK disguises himself to infiltrate the Evronian base in New Zealand and decides to take the appearance of a general, despite being conspicously shorter than any Evronian. Yet no one, from soldiers who salute him to Nebula Faraday inviting him to join a meeting with several other generals, notices it - except a single general, who in that scene appears to be the only intelligent character around. | |

Covers Always Lie: The cover for A New Hero shows Paperinik dramatically bursting out of the ground with a drill on his X-Transformer. In the story proper, he just checks the drill out on a single panel on what is essentially a non sequitur and at a point the hero is still looking for the X-Transformer. | |

Noble Demon: The Raider is a thief working for an organization with the goal of changing history to make them the rulers of the world, but he always keeps his word, his son is the most important thing in the universe for him and he willingly risks his life more than once to save the world. (While still trying to make a profit, of course... the trope still contains the word "demon", after all). | |

Sam Plot, writer for the soap opera "Anxieties". Before being partially coolflamed, he changed the main actor since the previous one was temporarily missing (kidnapped). Later in the series, after the first actor resurfaces, he rewrites this as the two actors being two different main characters, long lost twins who were Separated at Birth and are now reunited. And have the exact same name. | |

Arms Dealer | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_7aeb0635 | comment |
Arms Dealer: A few examples. The first to appears are, surprisingly, the Evronians: as part of their plan to catch Earth by surprise with their invasion they gave some of their weapons to a Banana Republic in exchange of the ability to take a few of their peasants (PK and La Résistance don't appreciate, of course). The second to appear is a former Gangland Gun Runner specialized in thermonuclear weapons and the member of the Congress that provided him with the goods (both have been locked up after Angus Fangus exposed them). The third is Everett Ducklair, who, in the second series, sells Disintegrator Ray weapons to the US Army, and shows zero tolerance for any use of those weapons by unsanctioned users. Finally there's the guy who's supposed to deliver Ducklair's weapons to the Army but sold them to gangs (and received a visit from the military police after Everett's assistant tracked him down). | |

Villain Decay | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_7bb844ec | comment |
Villain Decay: In his first appearance, Visionary Villain Professor Fairfax was a ruthless but brilliant evil genius whose patiently planned cataclysmic conspiracy had been decades in the works with no one the wiser, as well as sufficiently badass to credibly go toe-to-toe with PK with a fire axe inside a crashing airplane. Despite multiple interruptions and a premature launch, his scheme almost succeeded due to well-laid contingency plans and his skill at Xanatos Speed Chess. He was also a suave and charismatic figure, as well as physically imposing, tall and handsome. In other words, one of the comic's most memorable magnificent bastards. And then when he returned as a consulting Mad Scientist for Belgravia, he inexplicably became a petty and spiteful Insufferable Genius with absolutely no self-control. He also physically turned into a ridiculous dwarf. In his final appearance in the original series, he was tall again, but still more neurotic than ever, and had also become seriously overweight. As of Might and Power, he's back in physical shape but he has even thrown away his original goal of causing a disaster that would however result in new inhabitable lands, and has become an ally of the Evronians just to get back at the world for not "appreciating" his efforts. The Evronians also decayed over time, from (relatively) genuinely intimidating and alien monstrosities in the early issues to borderline comic-relief villains with Chronic Backstabbing Disorder. This trend probably reached its apogee in "Phase Two" and then reversed somewhat. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_7fbb2a3 | comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Ducklair escaped with his daughters to Earth in order to give them a normal life, rather than allow them to potentially become Queens at the cost of their emotions. Turns out, they don't like having lost years of their lives in a coma and seeing a future as rulers denied... so they pull a Face–Heel Turn and try to become Earth's rulers. In PK Universe #6, Paperinik defeats an alternate Raider who has a functioning Othership, but the consequences may have been catastrophic. He does it by hitting the device, which starts malfunctioning. Alt-Raider observes he has damaged the "quantum limiter", before yelling "Realities are about to..." and disappearing. Soon after, Paperinik seemingly starts to have memories of PK, while Gyro's device to observe parallel realities doesn't detect them anymore. No definitive anwer is given on whether the machine is just broken or not, but in the worst scenario, all other realities may have collapsed or merged! In Might and Power, PK decides to use the solid holograms function of the new suit to its fullest potential but the Evronians are still too many. Not only he's forced to flee and leave the people he promised to save, but having depleted the suit's energy, he's also lost the shielding from the Evronian DNA trackers, leading them to a massive attack on Ducklair Tower. | |

Super-Soldier | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_80b57bec | comment |
Super-Soldier: The Evronians have a few different kinds of these. Grrodon is basically a weaker warrior capable of changing his looks (warriors like him resurface in the Ultimate Universe Continuity Reboot, and are implied to have gone rogue and murdered the last Emperor before Gorthan got their loyalty). Kravenn is the perfected version, having both the shape shifting ability, slightly superior strength and magnificent tracking abilities (he managed to track Xarion across the entire planet of Xerba, and it took throwing him into space twice to get rid of him). There's Trauma, with Super-Strength and psychic powers enabling him to amplify fear into utter terror and subsequently feed from it. A group of Half-Evronian Hybrids based on the genes of the Beasts of Rhaghor and the data of the never-seen Project Abominion, stronger, faster and with superior smell than standard warriors but indisciplined and apparently much stupider (they mutinied and closed the normal warriors of their ship in a cell guarded from the outside; somehow, the standard Evronians evaded and made short work of the guards). In an alternate universe, Evronian-Angus hybrids with Super-Strength superior to Trauma and the ability to feed from negative emotions — on the downside, they need constant feeding or they'll collapse, and they are quickly dispatched when Paperinik and the US Army stop fighting and start thinking about nice things. In PK2 we have The Predator, an ex-Seaduck (a Navy seal expy) who gets trasformed into an 80% mechanical being with enough firepower to be a match for the Extransformer. | |

Left Hanging | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_80b5924 | comment |
Left Hanging: Another 50-issue series would be needed to give a follow-up to all the loose ends. Issue #20, "Mekkano": the eponymous machine, which can break down any other machine for parts and add it to itself, is picked up in Earth Orbit by an alien spaceship, which takes it back to their base. Never seen or mentioned again. Issue #24, "Twilight": the issue's Big Bad is offed in a No One Could Survive That! way, just after proclaiming that with the data from his analysis of Paperinik's Swiss-Army Weapon, he will proceed to Take Over the World. Moreover, before leaving to go back to his dimension, Paperinik gives Urk a device which can transmit across dimensions, "In case you need help or something comes up." Neither plot points come up again. Issue #25, "Crossfire": Paperinik meets up with what is, essentially, La Résistance within the Evron Empire. They never show up again. Issue #40, "A Single Breath": it's pretty much stated outright in the ending that the issue's Big Bad, a Straw Nihilist with almost unlimited Psychic Powers, has survived being swept away by the wave caused by the collapse of a dam. Where did he end up? No one knows. Although it has a definite ending, PK2 was severely shortened over the original plans, so the conclusion is quite hasty and leaves no certainty about the future of Everett and his daughters, although one of the last issues of PKNA can be considered a Distant Finale to both series. Might and Power includes many of the plot threads left hanging to continue the story, leading to Continuity Porn. | |

Mechanical Evolution | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_8134db87 | comment |
Mechanical Evolution: In an issue, we know an alien race of robots. Their origin is unknown, but they're theorized either to descend from the computers of a ship who crashed on their planet, or to have evolved like every other race "only starting from microcircuits instead of microorganisms". Makes no sense, but who cares as far as it sounds so cool? | |

Continuity Cavalcade: PKNE "Might and Power" features several characters and hanging subplots from the old series, even some that weren't originally related to the Evronians, like the Raider or Morgan Fairfax. | |

ConservationOfNinjitsu | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_82f05a5d | comment |
Conservation of Ninjutsu: Averted. Paperinik can easily enough dispatch a dozen or so Evronians, but when there are to many of them he'll either need to be rescued or retreat. Even the new and incredibly powerful suit he's gotten in 2014 isn't enough against large groups of Evronians, who now have a new breed of Super-Soldier. Defied by Xadhoom, since it doesn't really matters if you attack her with one or one hundred soldiers. | |

Cryo-Prison | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_83a82d55 | comment |
Cryo-Prison: The Time Police incarcerates this way some criminals, and keep them in a jail out of time. Justified because the Time Police apply this only to those criminals that are so dangerous they're not concerned with punishment or rehabilitation but protect the world from them, and that's the only way to do it besides death penalty (that in the future they apparently don't have anymore)... And even that could fail: the Raider has the nasty habit to break out before they can place him in the cryo cell (he did it at least twice, and in one occasion even stole a prototype device to move between dimensions), and the one time they did get him in the Time Police found out they only placed his frozen image in the cryo cell. | |

Necessarily Evil | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_83f3983b | comment |
Necessarily Evil: Destroying the Evronian spores, one-meter large vegetal-like blobs that are the Evronian mean of reproduction and that they lay on the worlds they conquer. The spores, while gifted with formidable defenses against natural predators, are nothing more than defenseless fetuses against anyone equipped with ranged weapons. On the other hand, leaving a field of spores intact means that, in two months and half, hundreds of trained and indoctrinated Evronian warriors will pop out... The 2014 relaunch story Might and Power shows that the Evronians laid a number of unfertilized spore fields on Earth with the means to fertilize them, and the consequences of not wiping them out: while nobody was looking, Grrodon got to them and had them fertilized, laid other spores to have more warriors plus officers and scientists, and, with the help of Morgan Fairfax's genius and Nebula Faraday's money, put together an army that overran Earth in one month. So, yeah, better wipe them out as soon as they're laid. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: There was an Evronian invasion fleet hidden in the asteroid belt, yet by the time we last see the Evronians nobody speaks of it anymore. Stories after Might and Power may change this however, since the authors have stated that while Grrodon's menace on Earth has been defused, those were far from being that last Evronians that may pose a threat. At the end of PKNA #9 The Springs of The Moon, it is revealed that Evronian general Zargon is Not Quite Dead. Unfortunately, we'll never hear about him again. In The End of the World (a special issue telling the Evronian invasion of Xerba) it's shown counsellor Xarion, the last survivor of the Xerbian evacuation ship Antra, managed to arrive on Earth with a database of the ships of the Evronian fleet. At the end of the issue he discovered that PK had accidentally ruined the support of his database, so he announced his intention to repair his shuttle and return on the Antra to recover another copy, but he never appeared again. There was also the fanatical Nebula Faraday from PKNA #7. The end of the story hinted at a future appearance but she was never seen again... Until 2014's Might and Power, where we learn that she's been a main player in the Evronian resurgence. At the end of the storyline, however, the trope happens again with her! She flees from the base at Cape Dominion and we see the air force is attacking the fleeing Evronian ships. It takes PKNE #5 to know she managed to escape. | |

Cool Car | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_8a295a46 | comment |
Cool Car: The Pi-Kar, the hero's flying car, equipped with any kind of gadgets and weapons, just like the Batmobile. It comes with a Cool Garage with a lot of secret exits (and full of other Cool Cars, but One does not allow Donald Duck to use them instead of his 313). In PK2 the hero is given a new model as a parting gift from One, before Everett deactivated him: it can shapeshift to be Hidden in Plain Sight (a necessity since PK was booted out from Ducklair Tower. Speaking of Donald's old 313 car, it begins the series on all of its old and awesome glory (among other things, it could fly) but it's destroyed by Xadhoom during a confusing first impression, hence why Donald is now driving a new car. The 313 with the X plate is officially known as the "313-X". It's basically the same car as ever, plus some additions built by Gyro Gearloose in the more traditional - and milder - Paperinik stories. Said additions give Donald the possibility to switch between the 313◊ and the 313-X◊ at will, whenever he needs to do so; and given Paperinik has no superpowers, like Batman, the 313-X can be similarly compared to a downgraded Batmobile. | |

Didn't Think This Through: According to the Raider, the Organization planned to dispose of Paperinik after they saved time. But Paperinik still had to defeat the Evronian Empire and get rid of that Evronian invasion fleet sitting in the asteroid belt... A magnificent one happens in the final issue of the Ultimate Universe Continuity Reboot, when Zondag fumbles with Kronin's time machine to prevent the formation of the Guardians of the Galaxy and ends up accidentally destroying the Evronian Empire in the process, with his race becoming peaceful instead. At which point Kronin proceeds to gloat and invoke this trope, even pointing out there's a good reason if he, in spite of being a supervillain with a time machine, merely used it to steal. | |

The first issue of PK2: Everett returns from Dhasam-bul, deactivates One, kicks Paperinik out of Ducklair Tower, learns his secret identity and reveals his daughter is in suspended animation. From the Ultimate Universe reboot, issues 25 "Frontal Assault" and 26 "The Warrior King". The Evronians pull out all the stops and launch a massive attack on Earth, forcing the Guardians to send all the agents they can. PKNE #4 Chronicle of a Return: Xadhoom is revealed to be alive, we learn that Evronians are far from finished and there are actually multiple Empires throghout the universe, there are other alien races which are as dangerously destructive as the Evronians if not even more, and finally the Xerbians have disappeared once again. | |

Played straight by the human members of the Time Police, who have no problems sending Lyla to secure destruction so they can replace her and treat her as a simple object (even after droids get civil rights). | |

Planet Looters: The Evrons use weapons that drain all emotions from a sentient victim and convert them into energy (the will-less victims are then used for menial labor). However, since their whole infrastructure is built on using this emotional energy, and you can only ever drain one victim once, they are forced to conquer new planets constantly. Their own scientists know this is unsustainable, but few dare voice that opinion. | |

| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_93ed8515 | comment |
Set Right What Once Went Wrong: In PKNA #3 The Day of the Cold Sun Paperinik teams up with the Raider to prevent his city from being nuked by a nuclear fusion experiment gone horribly wrong. Also in #14 Carpe Diem, where PK and the Raider team up again to set right what went wrong in the future and prevent the creation of a bubble that would erase the whole space-time continuum. In a subversion, their actions pratically start the anomaly in advance. Luckily, they manage to stop it just in the nick of time. PKNA #34 is not only this, but PK points out that the villain, who is a criminal time traveller, could have invoked this trope instead of being obsessed with revenge, effectively dismantling his Freudian Excuse. | |

Time Police | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_966b4df0 | comment |
Time Police: Literally and actually referred to as such. They got around the many possible time-travel loopholes by building their HQ outside time itself: whoever is in the HQ isn't affected by any changes to the timeline, and can thus work to restore it. The series also shows the darker aspect of this trope: the issue "The Day of the Cold Sun" has our hero forced to ally with the time pirate the Raider to prevent the destruction of Duckburg due an experiment on cold fusion going horribly wrong and nuking the city. And when the explosion doesn't happen at the allotted time the Time Police agents show up to cause it themselves!. At least, until their fight with Paperinik and the Raider's plan backfiring on him cause so much trouble that making the experiment fail in a non-explosive way is the better option. | |

Took a Level in Badass | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_9bcd82c0 | comment |
Took a Level in Badass: The series revolves around PK, the supporting characters and the villains taking one. And in ''Pikappa'', PK is pissed. Saying why would be a spoiler, but let's just say that what happened is enough to make him actually consider killing someone.note To put that in perspective, the only time it happened to Spider-Man, it was in the "Back in Black" storyline, where a similar pressure of his Berserk Button made Spidey wonder, "was I actually going to kill him? The answer comes straight away. Yes, I was.". Now, in all continuities Paperinik has little issues about killing people... If it's absolutely necessary and/or the enemy is actively trying to kill him. Murder of a defenseless enemy, however, it's something else... In the above part of the entry, he was charging a small laser cannon aimed at the head of a now defenseless Mad Scientist. | |

Our Vampires Are Different | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_9f63d4f1 | comment |
Our Vampires Are Different: The Evronians. They are Emotion Eaters, but only for "positive" emotions (though they add apathy and terror to the list); they get no nourishment from "negative" emotions, and in fact these are the only emotions they are able to display. They feed themselves in small but frequent meals, which is why they have shoulder fuel tanks. One mutated version in a What If? issue is able to absorb negative emotions, and without any Evrongun or technological drainers; in fact, they have a much higher metabolism that gives them a lot more strength... if they are able to feed themselves. If they can't, they quickly collapse. | |

Nuclear Option | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_a08b0736 | comment |
Nuclear Option: The US' nuclear arsenal is what keeps the Evronians from attacking in force: they know they can shoot down a small barrage but have no idea how big the salvo would be, and since they know how devastating even a single one could be they refrain from attacking until they have at least set up a beachead. | |

Back when the dinosaurs roamed the planet, Earth became the battlefield of two advanced alien races, now apparently extinct. One of them, forced to leave in the face of an invasion with overwhelming strength, left around a Mind Control device that brainwashed the dinosaurs into attacking their enemies and, after surviving under Duckburg for over 65 million years brainwashed Rupert into attacking Paperinik, as his costume happens to resemble the uniforms of the aliens. | |

Genocide Backfire: The Evronians are feared across the galaxy for their destruction and enslavement of many different species. This backfired on them when they destroyed the planet Xerba, where a scientist had performed experiments on herself so she could acquire the power of a star. So to their terror the Evronians were suddenly confronted with a virtually instoppable superbeing gunning after them to avenge her people. | |

A group of Half-Evronian Hybrids based on the genes of the Beasts of Rhaghor and the data of the never-seen Project Abominion, stronger, faster and with superior smell than standard warriors but indisciplined and apparently much stupider (they mutinied and closed the normal warriors of their ship in a cell guarded from the outside; somehow, the standard Evronians evaded and made short work of the guards). | |

Canon Discontinuity | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_a32334b4 | comment |
Canon Discontinuity: The only Disney series with a link with Paperinik New Adventures is the Italian continuity on the Junior Woodchucks, whose best known story, the multi-episode Threat From Outer Space, is alluded to in Xadhoom, with Huey, Dewey e Louie appearing in that issue just long enough to explain their uncle they have to leave Duckburg for a long JW mission and briefly allude to the events of the most recent episodes of their story. No other Disney series, board game or whatever is even loosely connected to either Paperinik New Adventures or the Italian Junior Woodchucks continuity. A 2012 Double Duck storyline has Belgravia prominently involved, with Nestor and Grigorij Grimka explicitly mentioned and the latter having succeeded his father as President. Since at times the series mentioned Donald already having the Paperinik identity (which also explained his abilities as a secret agent), it led many to think that Donald may have become Double Duck after PK2, but the writer said it was only intended as a big nod to PKNA fans... until the crossover in early 2016 confirmed that the stories are set in the same universe. | |

True for Evronians with military power. With the exception of the occasional Giant Mook, low-ranking troopers are as strong as the average human being; officers haven't been shown in physical combat, but are more muscular than the troopers; all known generals but two (an unknown high ranking political general and pre-Super-Soldier Trauma) are tall, muscular and one even survived a direct hit from Xadhoom; members of the Imperial Senate are like the generals, only bigger; finally the Imperial caste have the ability to fire lethal beams from the non-talking head, with the Emperor having serious muscles too and proving he can handily defend himself. | |

Ancient Astronauts | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_aa4fa3d5 | comment |
Ancient Astronauts: There are few examples. In order of appearance, we have: The Evronians, of all aliens, having first visited Earth about ten thousands years in the past and visiting multiple times until we became suitable for conquest. In Urk's parallel universe an unspecified alien race, strongly hinted to be the Evronians of that universe, visited Earth at some point in the distant past, giving advanced and eco-friendly technologies to the populations of the American continent and teaching them how to live in peace while still being able to defend themselves by invasion of the Vikings (who, by the time they discover America, have advanced to technological levels slightly superior to those of late 20th century Earth by themselves). Back when the dinosaurs roamed the planet, Earth became the battlefield of two advanced alien races, now apparently extinct. One of them, forced to leave in the face of an invasion with overwhelming strength, left around a Mind Control device that brainwashed the dinosaurs into attacking their enemies and, after surviving under Duckburg for over 65 million years brainwashed Rupert into attacking Paperinik, as his costume happens to resemble the uniforms of the aliens. It's hinted that both the Xerbians and the Coronans have visited Earth at multiple points in the past, as shown when the Xerbian refugee starship Antra set course specifically to Earth to warn them about the Evronian threat (not knowing there was already an Evronian invasion force there and they had an Evronian infiltrator on board) and Everett Ducklair choosing Earth as his refuge. | |

Oh, Crap!: this.◊ Also Trauma and Morgoth. The last page of PKNA #6 ("Spores"). Xadhoom is quite excited to see that Evronian battlecruiser. The usual Evronian reaction to Xadhoom. PK at the end of the third episode of Might and Power. Forced to flee from the Evronian base in the island of Grimsey because his suit ran out of power, he returns to the Ducklair Tower, and only there he realizes that no power to the suit means also the shielding from the Evronian DNA trackers are down.

Artificial Gravity | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_ae69516f | comment |
Artificial Gravity: Usually goes unnoticed, but was involved in the plot twice: In "The Day of the Cold Sun" the Raider disguised as Angus suggests that professor Seamus Hogg should use it for the containment of an experimental fusion reactor, and is about to explain how to build a generator when the real Angus shows up. Many stories later, Seamus Hogg is shown dabbling with artificial gravity. However, his generator was faulty, resulting in the flow of time going literally out of its banks, with one of the most nightmarish scenarios in the series until Paperinik, Lyla and the Raider travel back in time and destroy it before activation. Too bad he only knows that the generator had worked... | |

Fate Worse than Death: Not quite so bad as the trope makes it sound, but certainly And I Must Scream. If PK and the Raider were to survive their mission to the future, the Organization did not intend to let him go. Rather, they'd kill him or drop him into a Limbo, "So boring you'll long for your worst schooldays". | |

Brains and Brawn: Paperinik and Xadhoom, with a very interesting twist: while Xadhoom is a Genius Bruiser, her preferred tactics are almost Alucard-like in their complexity, meaning that PK is the one who must calm her down and formulate a plan. And of course, Paperinik and One. PKNA #25 "Crossfire" shows that the whole population of the planet Vanium was like this before the Evronian invasion, since every member of the Nimoids (the smarter race) lived in symbiosis with a member of the Mastonts (the stronger race). | |

Science Fantasy: In PKNA #18 ("Ancient Future"), Paperinik is transported to a LOTR-like Fantasy world where hi-tech Cyber-Elves fight against Techno-Orcs. The same issue also features other classic fantasy tropes, sometimes subverted: e.g. members of La Résistance are orcs, and the Evil Overlord turns out to be not-so-evil after all. | |

Blood Knight: Oberon De Spair is implied to be this, craving wars to bring "chaos and destruction". He even saves PK's life after he has thwarted his plans because, in his words, such enemies are rare to come about. The new character introduced in PKNE Might and Power. The Omega Chamber AI accuses PK of having been too soft in the past, and wants the hero to become more ruthless. When PK is trapped inside Nebula's base and decides to supercharge its weapons to punch a hole and escape through the walls rather than kill the Evronian soldiers, the AI calls him out on it. As of ''Chronicle of a Return", however, he's decidedly softening. | |

Cool and Unusual Punishment | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_c007c53 | comment |
Cool and Unusual Punishment: Two Evronians were once threatened with assignment to hunt Xadhoom if they failed their given task. It was cool and unusual, but it was also a death sentence; every single time the Evronians try to ambush her, she would fall right into the trap note even when she guesses it but still charges in because there's a lot of Evronians there. Particularly egregious when a group of Evronians disguise themselves as Xerbians (Xadhoom's people) but accidentally blow up their cover by not knowing what a Xarghon is. Xadhoom plays along to get some laughs as the fake Xerbians try to guess what it is, then tells them she knows everything and what a Xarghon is (the traditional Xerbian dance of welcome) before killing every single ambusher and then blast it open with her sheer power before killing every single Evronian and blow everything up. | |

The second time he still wants to forge an alliance with her, but to have a chance to talk he traps Xadhoom in a containment cage. She can easily escape from it, but after seeing Paperinik fight some Evronians she understands they are on the same side. Played straight when Paperinik met Urk. | |

During "The Xadhoom Trilogy" Paperinik disguises himself as a cooflame. He however forgets that they are no longer able to speak, giving himself away. | |

Mini-Mecha: Paperinik uses one to fight Trauma, and another against Morgoth. The US army has them. So does the army of the Princedom of Stahlburg, as well as Powered Armor and one Humongous Mecha. | |

Kravenn is the perfected version, having both the shape shifting ability, slightly superior strength and magnificent tracking abilities (he managed to track Xarion across the entire planet of Xerba, and it took throwing him into space twice to get rid of him). | |

Freudian Excuse | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_c868a42a | comment |
PKNA #34 is not only this, but PK points out that the villain, who is a criminal time traveller, could have invoked this trope instead of being obsessed with revenge, effectively dismantling his Freudian Excuse. | |

DomesticAbuser | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_c8c7fb4f | comment |
Domestic Abuser: Two examples pop out in PK2. One is Tyrrel Duckard, a droid from the XXIII century who was in a relationship with Lyla. When he reappears, he's gone crazy because the microcontration stopped time travel and trapped him in a jail where he had infiltrated on a mission. So he escapes and tries to force Lyla to go back to the future using a device that would have erased the whole continuity, and savagely attacks her when she refuses. Tyrrel is this even in the Pikappa reboot, despite the completely different origins. Like Lyla, he was built by a genius in the XIX Century but he went insane and set their mansion on fire, leaving even Lyla (who was trying to save their creator) behind. When he finds her more than a century later, she has lost her memories and he transmits her some fake ones; when she recovers her true memories, she is enraged. The second is Lucas, the former boyfriend of Stella Nice. He forces her to hide him in her house while his gang is fighting a war with another gang to gain control of the streets of Duckburg. | |

Special Ability Shield: Paperinik's main tool in this series is the Extrasformer shield, a shield made of malleable metal, which can split and throw a boomerang, contains an extandable fist, an immobilizing beam, a rocket that allows Paperinik to fly, and can communicate with One. | |

The Evronians also decayed over time, from (relatively) genuinely intimidating and alien monstrosities in the early issues to borderline comic-relief villains with Chronic Backstabbing Disorder. This trend probably reached its apogee in "Phase Two" and then reversed somewhat. | |

Red Shirt Army: Averted. Quite unusually for a superhero comic, the US Army has proved to be able to hold its ground against the Evronians. At least when they're not attacking in force, but after Might and Power their forces are more even, since the Army now have guns that can devolve the Evronians into spores. | |

The rebooted series Pikappa. It's not without darker moments on the level of the first two, however: examples are #9, centered around that universe's version of Tyrrell Duckard, and #12 where one main character is Killed Off for Real (and then resurrected by putting his mind in a robotic body), and PK is seriously ready to throw away his moral code and kill someone for revenge, among other things. | |

PK Universe, being the original Paperinik with some characters from PKNA. Jokes abound (to the point of upsetting some fans), Xadhoom is much less rough both in characterization and in design, and while the hero has to get upgraded tech from Gyro to fight the Evronians, they appear less powerful and menacing. | |

Cerebus Syndrome: The series was already darker than your average Disney comic. Then the sequel series, PK2 came along. And then comes PK New Era. Despite being published in child-friendly Topolino, it has some of the darkest PK stories. Notably, the first story starts with Donald's murder and it only gets darker from there. Also, most of the stories have a Bittersweet Ending at best. | |

Cut the Juice | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_d1d670cc | comment |
Cut the Juice: Paperinik tries this against One when he believes he shows signs of going insane. Actually the "evidence" was planted by Two, who wanted his twin to be shut down while he has plenty of backup generators, as he gleefully informs Paperinik. Also done with the Evronians in issue #0/3: they have trapped Paperinik and Xadhoom in an inescapable force field, but as the force field is fueled by Duckburg's power plant One is able to free them by hacking that and cutting the juice of the generator. | |

Character Catchphrase | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_d308cbb0 | comment |
Character Catchphrase: Xadhoom is fond of saying "Let's dance" or a variant of this, especially before wiping out some Evrons. Dancing is apparently the first thing she thinks of when happy, as evidenced by how she once revealed that a group of Xerbians she had just met, were in truth Evronians in disguise: she requested a specific dance that was very popular on Xerba, and they didn't know it. | |

The same episode drops another: if you can stop a bad thing from happening but you don't, you're an accomplice and blaming others for it will end to ruin you. After all,it's Paperinik pointing out that the Gryphon, Trip's future self, could have used his Time Machine to prevent his father's death instead of blaming it on Paperinik that prompts Trip to see the Gryphon as the monster he is, especially when someone completely different prevents the Raider's (Trip's father) death. | |

Refuge in Audacity: After the Evronians attempt to abduct an entire town outside of Duckburg but are stopped by the US militar, Paperinik asks how general Westcock is going to cover up this. Westcock responds by pulling out a megaphone and loudly thanking the people who were floating up into a spaceship less than an hour earlier for having participated in a military drill, and that all they will all be generously compensated for lost or destroyed property. The townsfolk quickly accept this, though it's implied to be more because no one wants to object and risk losing the payout. | |

Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain: In more comedic issues, the Evronians tend to fit this trope. Angus may qualify, but probably Paperinik doesn't even consider him a villain, more like a nuisance. Agenore Brazoff, who challenged Paperinik four times (the first two when he was still the "regular" Paperinik): he is so pathetic, he manages to convince people that Paperinik should let him win. | |

Play-Along Prisoner | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_e116fedc | comment |
Play-Along Prisoner: After a...difficult first encounter, Paperinik traps Xadhoom in a energy cage built specifically for her. Before he can explain that he doesn't want to fight her, some Evronians arrive and try to take both,only for Paperinik to kick their asses. Seeing this, Xadhoom is finally convinced they are on the same side... and then breaks the cage, explaining she only stayed inside it because she wanted to see if he was an ally or an enemy. | |

Dub Name Change | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_e2c4b927 | comment |
Dub Name Change: The Swedish version changed a lot of names into Swedish ones. The American IDW version changed a lot of names into English ones, including some Engrish examples from the original comic (e.g. giving the attractive/sexy Lyla the surname "Lay"; at IDW, she was named Lyla Lee). Ironically, IDW missed the Engrish of Everett Ducklair (the breed of duck his surname refers to is actually spelled Duclair). | |

This is later deconstructed when Geena, a Well-Intentioned Extremist droid tries to change history to make droids equal to humans. Later, with the "Droids Chart", they finally obtain rights. | |

A Glitch in the Matrix: In the second series, Paperinik is unwittingly placed in a virtual reality environment. He notices something is amiss when the same background characters begin appearing in very different roles, and his suspicions are confirmed when he finds out that several different packets of potato chips contain the exact same chips, down to the one weirdly shaped like a fish. | |

Laser-Guided Amnesia | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_e7b0229a | comment |
Laser-Guided Amnesia: Paperinik has pills that erase the last few hours (or more) from a character's memory. They are actually one of the few special creations of Gyro Gearloose he keeps troughout all his appearances, and Gyro uses the last one on himself in order to forget about Donald being Paperinik in PKNA, thus severing the last tie to his old life and allowing him to protect Earth as a full-time superhero. In an interesting case of Character Development, Paperinik decided to not use them anymore after losing memory himself, because he now knows how that makes people feel. | |

Not only he's forced to flee and leave the people he promised to save, but having depleted the suit's energy, he's also lost the shielding from the Evronian DNA trackers, leading them to a massive attack on Ducklair Tower. | |

Crossover: Happens in Xadhoom, where Huey, Dewey e Louie allude to a multi-episode Junior Woodchucks story then being published in Italy. Given it's barely two pages and you needed to follow both series to notice, it completely flew over most people's heads. The story "Time Crime", a crossover between Donald's superhero identity Paperinik and Donald's secret agent identity Double Duck. | |

Conspicuous Trenchcoat: In the first issue of PK2 Everett sends one of his robots after Paperinik. To blend in, he dresses it up like this. Donald, having seen the robot before, recognizes it immediately but everybody else is fooled. Must be a thing for robots because later in the series, a corrupt lawyer disguises his one hundred mini-bots assembled in humanoid form in the same way. | |

Insignificant Little Blue Planet | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_f01a1b71 | comment |
Insignificant Little Blue Planet: The Evronians, who are currently trying to invade Earth, view it as so insignificant that the members of the Imperial Council have problem recalling its name. And the only reason they even bothered learning it is a combination of Earth being scheduled to have its oceans being used to cool off the engines of their Planet Spaceship and Earthling being relatively tough to conquer (enough they can't just bulldoze in). Later Subverted: the Evronians are Emotion Eaters who fuel most of their technology with stolen emotions with a process that drains the victim completely and forever, but Earthlings are so emotionally rich that a single shot of their Evronguns often isn't enough and they can recover...meaning that humanity is an unending banquet and the possible solution to Evron's impending energy crisis. The Imperial Council still has trouble remembering the name. | |

Thou Shall Not Kill: Averted entirely: while everyone, save Xadhoom, doesn't go looking to kill, no one shows reservations about doing so either, should they deem it necessary. Might and Power, however, shows that PK always wants to avoid doing it unless the situation's really desperate, which constatly puts him at odds with his new ally (who openly wants the hero to be more ruthless), and he's visibly sad when Grrodon, who was already defeated but didn't want to surrender, falls to his apparent death. | |

Engrish | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_f1d38725 | comment |
Engrish: The Italian originals tried to have some English-sounding names, but some were clumsy ("Paperilla Starry" for a movie star) or unintentionally rude (the gorgeous Lyla being given the surname "Lay"). Everett Ducklair remains spelled as such in most localizations (including English), but likely because translators didn't realize his surname is supposed to be the duck breed Duclair, here misspelled. | |

Who's Laughing Now? | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_f438b11b | comment |
Who's Laughing Now?: The character of Paperinik was originally created as Donald's way to get back at everyone who laughed at him, and committed various acts over the boundaries of legality (starting with stealing Scrooge's money-filled mattress while he was sleeping on it) to humiliate Donald's foes. While toned down in this series, remnants of that characterization are still present, especially in his dealings with Angus (like casually framing Angus for breaking in a bank as payback for letting himself being used by the Raider). | |

Never Found the Body | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_f516f938 | comment |
There are also some characters who, with no confirmation of their death and no further appearances, are to be presumed dead. There's, for example, Leonard Vertighel from PKNA #22: no trace is found of him but it's stated he apparently turned off the sprinkler system, and his depression made a suicide quite likely. Baron Hastings from #24 is seen recovering data that may allow the Vikings to travel to other dimensions... and an explosion engulfs him. Then his entire fortress explodes. Kronin is lost in the timeless void at the end of #33, although it was all undone by the following issue, so he's probably still frozen in Time 0. | |

Darkest Hour: PK lives it in Might and Power: thrusted back into action after a prolonged inactivity, against a resurrected Evronian threat that not even his powerful new gear seems able to stop, and a new ally that constantly doubts his abilities and moral code, he suffers a string of failures that end up with the apparent destruction of Ducklair Tower, himself escaping it narrowly.

R-Rated Opening | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_f9ab4501 | comment |
PG Rated Opening: While probably not as merciless as an actual R-Rated Opening, the cold opening to the first issue isn't exactly family friendly either. It starts with the Evrons raiding a planet, and with what appears to be a young Xadhoom letting out a Big "NO!". Another example of Disney getting dangerous. | |

Running Gag | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: A minor one brought up surprisingly often is various people joking about PK becoming leader of Evron. In "Phase Two", an Evronian commander is interrupted by his superior while pondering if one of his subordinates is planning on usurping Zotnam. When the superior asks what he was talking about, the commander claims he was talking about PK, causing his superior to laugh at the prospect of PK making a career in the Evronian hierarchy. In "Under a new sun", Xari tells PK to stay in that room... Onboard an Evronian planetoid. PK assures him that he has no plans to have tea with the Evronian leadership. Eventually, in PKNE, Paperinik menages to convince a group of Evronians that lost their Emperor, generals and high scientists that he is an ally of Evron and that they must obey him. | |

Death Ray | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_fa8245fb | comment |
Death Ray: The Evronians have their standard sidearms, the Evronguns. They normally drain someone's emotions, but Grrodon explains they can be set to drain someone's life energy, thus fulfilling the trope. | |

Gadgeteer Genius | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_fbba5e98 | comment |
Gadgeteer Genius: One replaces the classic Gadgeteer Genius of Disney comics, Gyro Gearloose. Everett Ducklair, One's creator, is also an excellent example, although he retired to cure himself of his compulsion to build apocalyptic weapons in every new invention. | |

Brain Uploading | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_fc52510 | comment |
Brain Uploading: The Ultimate Universe Continuity Reboot has this trope when Lyonard D'Aq uploads his brain as a side result of him exploring a virtual world. Then this trope becomes a Chekhov's Gun when after Lyonard gets Killed Off for Real (or, more precisely, turned into the monstrous Lyozard and then killed off) and One downloads the data version of his brain into a (superpowered, of course) bionic body. | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_fd4f8299 | comment |
Well-Intentioned Extremist: Fairfax, in his original appearance. Fighting overpopulation with the creation of a new continent... and the destruction of the West Coast in the process. However, he later loses that trait in a case of Motive Decay. Geena is a deconstruction. She wants to change history to make droids equal to humans, even going as far as destroying the only safe way to keep an eye on history. After seeing the actual results, though, (in the future she created, machines think of themselves as superior, and a war is about to explode), she sacrifices herself to stop it. | |

Theme Naming | |
| Paperinik New Adventures (Comic Book) / int_fd94c4ac | comment |
Theme Naming: One and Two. In PKNA #39 there are three siblings named Alpha, Bravo and Charlie. And their surname is Delta. Charlie Delta's buddy is named... Gamma. When Gamma lampshaded it, Charlie explained that their parents are in the military intelligence, and picked their names from the NATO phonetic alphabet, in alphabetical order. He then added that if they had younger siblings they would be Delta Delta, Echo Delta and Foxtrot Delta. Two twin robbers named Castor and Pollux in PKNA #18. | |
