Donald Duck
Though a 1931 Disney publication called "Mickey Mouse Annual" mentioned a character named Donald Duck, the character's first appearance in comic-strip format was a newspaper cartoon that was based on the short "The Wise Little Hen" and published in 1934. For the next few years, Donald made a few more appearances in Disney-themed strips, and by 1936, he had grown to be one of the most popular characters in the "Silly Symphonies" comic strip. Ted Osborne was the primary writer of these strips, with Al Taliaferro as his artist. Osborne and Taliaferro also introduced several members of Donald's supporting cast, including his nephews, Huey, Dewey, and Louie.
