Allworth and No Play

Story  on  Interior Page(s)
Subject Matter
Genres: anthropomorphic
Character(s): Donald Duck; Huey; Dewey; Louie; Dr. Primly Allworth
First Line: Some folks just have to tell everyone how to run their lives...
Synopsis: Dr. Primly Allworth, self-proclaimed leader of a group dubbed the "Guardians of Morality", leads a Fredric Wertham-like crusade against comic books. But, like many demagogues, there's a profit motive behind his moralistic tirades. In Dr. Allworth's case, he is the author of squeaky-clean and deadly-dull children's books that he pushes while denigrating comic books. Seeking quick cash, an out-of-work Donald temporarily falls-in with Allgood, taking a job as his proofreader, but those champions of the lowly comic book, Huey, Dewey and Louie, give their Unca Donald and the Doc their comeuppance.

Disclose Notes: Title "Allworth and No Play" becomes official with Disney Masters #4 Walt Disney's Donald Duck: The Great Survival Test (2018).

Dr. Fredric Wertham, a well-known psychiatrist, believed that comic books, movies and television shows that featured crime, violence, and horror exerted a damaging influence on many juveniles and young adults. His best-known book, "Seduction of the Innocent" (1954), asserted that comic books caused youth to become delinquents. The surname of the antagonist of this story, "Allworth", most likely bears a phonetic connection to that of Dr. Wertham.
