Ratón Mickey
Ratón Mickey is the Spanish-language edition of Mickey Mouse, Disney's iconic anthropomorphic mouse, published by Mexico's Editorial Novaro for Latin American readers. Optimistic, brave, and endlessly resourceful, Mickey is recognized worldwide as the cheerful everyman hero of countless adventures.
Few icons of the printed page carry the instant recognition of Ratón Mickey, whose appearances in Editorial Novaro's beloved Cuentos de Walt Disney and Historietas de Walt Disney brought golden-era comic magic to Spanish-language readers throughout the late 1950s and into the 1960s. Debuting in this catalog with a 1954 issue illustrated by Al Hubbard, this version of the world's most famous mouse found a warm home in Novaro's charming line of Disney titles, sharing pages with an irresistible cast that includes Tribilín, Pato Donald, and the mischievous trio of Hugo, Luis, and Paco. Though his appearances in this particular catalog are a rare and collectible five, each one is a small treasure — a window into the vibrant Latin American comic market that brought Walt Disney's universe to life for generations of young readers south of the border.
