Gastone

Gastone is an Italian Disney comics character created by Romano Scarpa, debuting in Topolino in 1958. He inhabits the world of Paperino (Donald Duck) and Zio Paperone (Scrooge McDuck), making him part of the beloved Paperville cast in Italian Disney publishing.

Born in the pages of Topolino in 1958 from the pen of the legendary Romano Scarpa, Gastone is a Silver Age creation with deep roots in Italian Disney comics publishing. Over roughly three decades, this Mondadori character carved out a place in the beloved world of Topolino and I Classici di Walt Disney, sharing adventures alongside the likes of Paperino, Zio Paperone, and the irrepressible trio of Qua, Quo, and Qui. A Scarpa debut is always a mark of distinction — this is a creator celebrated for his craft and wit — and that pedigree alone makes Gastone worth a second look for any serious collector of European Disney comics.
