Almanaque do Pica-Pau

A short-lived but fondly remembered series from Brazilian publisher Editora Abril, Almanaque do Pica-Pau collected classic Woody Woodpecker and related Walter Lantz cartoon stories in a sturdy, magazine-sized almanac format. Running for just five issues between 1993 and 1994, it offered young readers a colorful, digest-style dose of slapstick comedy and familiar animated antics on the printed page. While not groundbreaking, the series stands as a charming snapshot of Abril's robust licensed-character publishing line during that era.
