The new hairdo first appeared in the Dutch comic "Nieuwe Coupe". Dutch Duck comic artist Mau Heymans designed a new hairdo and new wardrobe for April, May, and June.
In 1998, the editors of the Dutch 'Donald Duck' weekly magazine decided the three girls should be modernized, and they got permission from the Disney Company to do so.
Redesigned April, May, and June from a Dutch comic translated in Finnish. The story The Beauty Business, in which the nieces help Donald with his failing beauty salon, marked their final appearance in Barks' comics. Their first appearance after their introduction was in Barks' The Double Date, six years after their debut. In the final panel, they appear with Huey, Dewey, and Louie as their escorts.Īfter Barks introduced the girls in Flip Decision, they continued to make rare appearances in Barks's stories, but there were some they did play important roles. The first appearance of the trio was in the 1952 comic story Flip Decision by Carl Barks, in which they can be seen when Daisy is visiting her sister, the nieces' mother, who remained unseen. In addition, April/Webby's bow is on the side of her hair, while May and June's rest on the backs of their heads. They can be differentiated with their hairstyles and the color of their clothes April/Webby has a pixie cut and wears pink with a blue vest, May has a single ponytail and wears yellow, and June has two short pigtails and wears blue. In DuckTales, the three wear identical clothes in the form of a long-sleeved shirt, a darker vest, a large bow on their heads, and a skirt. One can recognize the girls in their modern look: April (Lizzy in Dutch comics) has one ponytail in her hair and wears purple, May (Juultje in Dutch comics) wears a headband, and dresses in pink, and June (Babetje in Dutch comics) has the two pigtails, and wears yellow.
