About

Dolan is an MS Paint web comic series featuring a variety of poorly drawn Disney cartoon characters. The main character Dolan, based on Donald Duck, is often portrayed as a psychotic killer and sex addict.

Origin

According to Uncle Dolan[2], the comics were originally created during the summer of 2010 by artist Sakolut[1] on the Finnish image board Kuvalauta. Titled “Aku Ankka” (Finnish for "Donald Duck"), the comics featured poorly drawn MS Paint characters and misspelled captions in speech bubbles. The first Dolan comic seem to be posted on early May 2010 on Naurunappula and the Meme Generator pics with the actual Dolan face date to early July 2010 to the creation time of "Akun Neuvo" (Donald's Advice) group on Naurunappula.[22] Following the repeated use of "Dolan" on English imageboards to refer to the character of Donald Duck, the comics eventually became known as "Dolan" comics.

The earliest archived instance in English-language comes from a You Laugh, You Lose thread on 4chan[4] posted on August 12th, 2010. The /r/dolan[7] subreddit was created two days later on August 14th, 2010.

Precursor: Spurdo Spärde

Dolan has many resemblances to Spurdo Spärde, another Finnish webcomic character from Kuvalauta that is meant to represent a poorly drawn version of Pedobear. The character was conceived in a mocking response to the sudden influx of teenage newcomers in June 2009. Aside from their imperfectionist style of drawing, both comics also share similarities in dialogue captions; Spurdo comics often end with the message "t. Spurdo" (Finnish: "regards, Spurdo") as Dolan comics do with "regards, Dolan."

The Uncle Dolan Show

In August 2011, YouTuber SweederLander[16] launched a web series titled "The Uncle Dolan Show," using various images of comics found on 4chan and text-to-speech narrations of the dialogues. One of the episodes was posted onto eBaumsworld[20] in January 2012.



Popularity Resurgence

Through the rest of 2011 and early 2012, Dolan comics continued to surface on 4chan's /b/ and reblogged through personal blogs on occasions, but the meme stayed mostly dormant. However, beginning in early March 2012, the comics saw a significant resurgence in popularity with a slew of threads popping up on 4chan[5][6], the /r/4chan[8][9] subreddit and Tumblr under the tag #Dolan.[10]

Mainstream Popularity

Single topic blogs like Dolan-Duck[18] and Fuck Yeah Dolan[19] were launched to cater to the rising demand of comics while those who were puzzled by its nonsensical humor began inquiring about its origin and meaning via Yahoo Answers[21] and Reddit. The meme also gained a large following on the BodyBuilding forum, leading to dozens of Dolan-related threads on the site. As of May 2012, the Memegenerator[11] page for Uncle Dolan has more than 3,500 image macro instances, the /r/Dolan subreddit[7] has 21,989 readers and the Facebook page[12] has 96,000 likes.

On Facebook

One of the most popular Dolan pages on Facebook was Spoderman/Spodeymemes, which had over 100k likes on Facebook and posted Spoderman and Dolan content on a daily basis. The Uncle Dolan Show creator Jared Malinowski also had a page called Dolan Duk, that had over 400k likes and was the most liked Dolan page on Facebook prior to being taken down for violating Facebook's community standards. Jared later returned with a new "Dolan Duk" Facebook page and a new Uncle Dolan Show[20] on Youtube[16] returning July 8th, 2016.

The Disney character Goofy also became a popular subject of MS Paint-style characters, such as the highly suspicious Ferrari Goofy who has elusive interactions with Dolan, as well as “Gooby,” who has also appeared in several comics. The /r/gooby[3] subreddit was created on March 14th, 2012 and YouTuber SweederLander of "The Uncle Dolan Show" launched a spin-off series titled "A Gooby Story" in April.
