I really like this one. I like the simplicity of a Donald comic. I honestly couldn't tell you where the hell this idea came from. I probably just wanted to do a Donald comic and just let my imagination run wild. Sometimes when I can't think of an idea I picture a premise and just imagine where it goes. So I could have easily just have thought to myself: "What if Donald wanted a popsicle?"

I like that the comic ends where it started. I also like the implication that this repeating event has gone on numerous times. Poor Donald is slowly filling up with coins.

Again, the idea that Donald is eating coins also plays in more to the idea that he's just a child. A concept I had built into his behavior but never really revealed until years later in #849.

I love that I put Keydar in the stocks. I think traditionally stocks are supposed to be elevated so the criminal has to stand. I bet you anything I placed the stocks on the ground so I wouldn't have to draw Keydar's legs.
