Big Bad Wolf

The Big Bad Wolf is the classic Disney comics adaptation of the fairy-tale villain, best known for menacing the Three Little Pigs. Blending storybook menace with slapstick humor, he appeared in Disney anthology titles alongside Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and their extended circles.

Few villains carry quite the storybook menace of Big Bad Wolf, who made his comics debut in a 1939 Golden Age holiday special and went on to haunt the pages of Walt Disney's Comics and Stories, Walt Disney Comics Digest, and Walt Disney Chip 'n' Dale across a remarkable 78-year publishing run. This classic Disney antagonist keeps wonderfully chaotic company — sharing adventures with Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and the Duck nephews among others — making him a recurring fixture in the warm, humor-filled world of Disney comics. With 51 catalog appearances, a key-issue credit to his name, and a presence stretching from the Golden Age all the way to 2017, he's a character whose longevity speaks for itself. For collectors who love the rich tradition of Disney comics storytelling, Big Bad Wolf is absolutely worth tracking down.
