The other translator

It only recently came to my attention that someone's been taking up the duty to translate Duck Avenger comics as of late, and it was only recently because you'll rarely ever see me browsing through Tumblr.

But yeah, I've spent some time looking at the archive of this "AJ the BlueJay" and I must say I am quite impressed with what's been done here so far. It certainly looks way more proper than anything I've ever produced. Bravo!

I do recomend that you guys go check it out all that stuff, as he does seem intent on translating the new story as well. There's more than Duck Avenger there too.

  1. Hey, it's AJtheBlueJay. Saw this just now and I am over the freakin' moon. I tell people that I really appreciate all the work you've done in making the glory of PKNA accessible for English-speakers, so for you to shout me out like this is just awesome. Thank you so much!

    1. I noticed that the scans from some of the issues you covered were in lower quality, which is quite unfortunate.

      Here, I have this archive containing HD scans of #12 to #49/50, as well as all four of the specials.

      Feel free to make use of whatever you might need if you plan on doing more of the classic series.

    1. Hey, it's AJtheBlueJay again. I wanted to know if there's anywhere else I can connect with you at (Twitter, Discord, etc.) Apparently the new PK A New Hero story comes out in a few days and I'd very much like to get a scan from you as you A New Hero scan was excellent.

    3. And it's nice to hear that you liked my scans. It is my intention to buy it and I'm willing to scan it. I just hope COVID-19 doesn't affect buying it.

  3. Next issue will be drawn by Roberto Vian. A first! He's drawn some classic Duck Avenger stories (including one very memorable one) but no PK... and look at the leaked page: https://scontent.fmxp1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/s960x960/83889504_2800342820027268_7710609663858835456_o.jpg?_nc_cat=110&_nc_ohc=jTUzUUGYjKQAX84ivFA&_nc_ht=scontent.fmxp1-1.fna&oh=448241b23039a1e8dfff92af87b69758&oe=5EC8AF42

    Man! This is much more like it!
