''The Pertwillaby Papers'' is an adventure comic drawn by Donald Duck artist Don Rosa in the 1970s. The comic is about the adventures of Lancelot "Lance" Pertwillaby and his friends and colleagues around the world. Rosa started drawing the comic in the ''Kentucky Kernel'' newspaper in 1971. At the time, it consisted of weekly four- or five-panel episodes. At first, the comic was a political satire, according to the wishes of the newspaper editor, but when the newspaper changed editors, the comic became an adventure series. In 1973, the comic was paused. In 1976, Rosa continued drawing the comic from episode #128 onwards, for the fanzine ''Rocket's Blast Comicollector''. He changed the comic so that it now consisted of about ten 8- to 12-panel pages per episode. A whole story consisted of five or six episodes. ''Rocket's Blast Comicollector'' included episodes #128 through #140, which comprised two whole stories and one which was left unfinished. Rosa stopped drawing the comic in 1979, because he was not paid for it and had begun to get bored of it. In the early 1980s he still drew one episode, number #141, to his unfinished story, but it was never published. Except for one story, Rosa re-used the basic storylines of his ''The Pertwillaby Papers'' stories in his Disney stories. The stories also include numerous scenes which can be found in his Duck comics. After his eventful student years, Lancelot Pertwillaby continues his life career as Captain Kentucky. == Stories == * Episodes #1 through #127: Lost in (an Alternative Section of) the Andes – According to Rosa, this story consists of two separate stories, because it is divided so clearly between episodes #1–#65 and #65–#127, the political satire of Lance's admittance into college and his life there, and the treasure hunt to the Andes in the search of the Inca temple of Manco Cápac, that it is more like a two-part story. Rosa later remade this story into his first Duck story called ''The Son of the Sun''. Parts were used in ''Cash Flow'' and ''The Last Lord of Eldorado''. * Episodes #128 through #133: Sub-Zero – Lance, together with his friends and enemies, is searching for the sizeable art collection hidden in the North Pole by the Nazis. Part was used in ''Last Sled to Dawson''. * Episodes #134 through #138: Vortex – Lance and the professor find and capture a black hole, and travel to the centre of the Earth. Rosa later used elements of this story in the Donald Duck story, ''The Universal Solvent''. * Episodes #139 through #141: Knighttime – Lance is sent to King Arthur's time. This story was left unfinished, but later re-done and completed as ''The Once and Future Duck''. Part was used in ''The Black Knight''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Pertwillaby Papers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
