So I was wondering if anybody had any interesting fun facts or statistics on the popularity of Disney Comics. I know a few and I will list them below.
• If an American comic series were to sell as good as Disney comics sell in some European countries (per capita), they'd have to sell 70 million copies. Source: Don Rosa's introduction to Super Snooper strikes again.
• The first week of the release of "Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck" in Finland, it sold 50000 copies, and there's only 5,5 million citizens in Finland! Forgot source... But pretty sure it was in a Don Rosa introduction.
• At the peek of it's popularity, the weekly Donald Duck magazine was read by one 1/4 people in Norway and Finland. Source: www.fastcompany.com/3058490/the-most-popular-magazine-in-finland-is-donald-duck
