Who is April?

April is one of Daisy Duck's three nieces — alongside May and June — who appear in Disney comics. The cheerful young trio serve as recurring companions to Daisy, Donald Duck, and Huey, Dewey, and Louie in light-hearted family stories.

Stepping out of the sunny Silver Age pages of Dell Giant #55 in 1961, April is a charming fixture of the beloved Disney comics universe brought to life by Christine Lyttle Smith and Tony Strobl. Over a remarkable publishing span stretching all the way to 2017, she's graced the pages of titles like Walt Disney Comics Digest and Walt Disney Daisy and Donald, keeping lively company with Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, and Huey Duck, as well as her companions May and June. Published by Western, April may have a modest 29 catalog appearances, but her staying power across more than five decades speaks to the enduring warmth of the world she inhabits — a corner of comics where charm and good humor never go out of style.
