Tamers of Nonhuman Threats

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tamers of Nonhuman Threats (TNT for short) is a continuing storyline in Walt Disney's Donald Duck comic books.

The storyline began when Fethry Duck accidentally got enlisted in a secret government organisation whose purpose is to find and counter paranormal threats to humanity before the public finds out about them and panics. Because of Fethry's eagerness to tell his cousin Donald everything, Donald learned of the organisation and was enlisted too.

Characters in the storyline include (English names needed):

  • The Head: A large man who leads the organisation with an effective leadership style.
  • A rough and tough female agent who is the second-in-command. She believes in direct action, and Donald and Fethry often get on her nerves.
  • A small, blue alien with a long snout. He is the organisation's tactical manager and also participates in training new agents. He speaks only in a strange grunting language which only a couple of other characters understand.
  • Jackson and Finch, two experienced agents.
  • A female mechanic.

Enemies Donald and Fethry have faced on their TNT missions include a strange blue jelly-like organism that grew everywhere, a shapeshifting alien pirate, a horde of ghost rats, and a kingdom of demons who were about to break loose of their underground habitat.

The TNT pays their agents well for each mission but demands total secrecy of the organisation.

Some of these stories have been printed in Gemstone's Donald Duck Adventures.
