"Truant Officer Donald" is a 10-page Disney comics story written, drawn, and lettered by Carl Barks.

The story was first published in '' Walt Disney's Comics & Stories'' #100 (January 1949). The story has been reprinted several times since. The story was based on an animated short of the same name first released in August 1941. In this story, Truant Officer Donald tries to catch his school-skipping nephews using radar, a periscope, and other surveillance devices. The comic book story has a different ending than the animated short, in which after Donald catches the boys and takes them to school, it is revealed that this day is a Saturday, in which there is no school.

Huey, Dewey And Louie
Huey, Dewey, and Louie are Multiple birth, triplet cartoon characters created by storyboard artist and screenwriter Carl Barks for The Walt Disney Company from an idea proposed by cartoonist Al Taliaferro. They are the nephews of Donald Duck and the grand-nephews of Scrooge McDuck. Like their maternal uncles, the brothers are anthropomorphic American Pekin duck, white ducks with yellow-orange bills and feet. The boys are sometimes distinguished by the color of their shirts and baseball caps (with Huey wearing red, Dewey wearing blue, and Louie wearing green). They appeared in many ''Donald Duck'' animated shorts, as well as in the television show ''DuckTales (1987 TV series), DuckTales'' and its DuckTales (2017 TV series), reboot, but the comics remain their primary medium. While the boys were originally created as troublemakers to provoke Donald's famous easily-triggered temper, in later appearances, beginning especially in the comic books stories by Carl Barks, they are shown ...
