"Donald Duck comics functions as a niche market, intercultural and intersemiotic. In 'Creation, Translation, and Adaptation in Donald Duck Comics' by Peter Cullen Bryan we have the opportunity to better understand the intercultural relevance of this fictional character, the social positioning of the character and creators, and the ability to portray cultural transformations mirrored in Donald Duck."
