Featuring familiar favorite characters like Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck, plus Huey, Dewey and Louie, this comic series will be modeled after the highly anticipated new animated series coming this summer, which has already been picked up for a second season in advance of its premiere. Their comic book tales will kick-off in a #0 issue this July for $3.99.

This August, Tangled: The Series debuts as an original graphic novel collection titled “Adventure is Calling.” In the novel, Rapunzel will embark on exciting new adventures with Eugene (FKA Flynn Rider), Pascal, Maximus, and her new friend Cassandra in a special adaptation of the series. The collection will feature 72 pages for $9.99.

“We’re extremely excited to expand IDW’s relationship with Disney,” IDW Group Editor Sarah Gaydos said.”There’s a lot of buzz surrounding both of these new animated series and we aim to live up to, and exceed, fan expectations.”
