'''John Lustig''' (born January 25, 1953<ref name=CBG1650/><ref>{{cite web|last=Miller |first=John Jackson |authorlink=John Jackson Miller |url=http://cbgxtra.com/knowledge-base/for-your-reference/comics-industry-birthdays |title=Comics Industry Birthdays |work=[[Comics Buyer's Guide]] |date=June 10, 2005 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110218031356/http://cbgxtra.com/knowledge-base/for-your-reference/comics-industry-birthdays |archivedate=February 18, 2011 |url-status=dead }}</ref>) is an American comics writer and former journalist, principally known for his [[Disney comics]] scripts featuring [[Donald Duck]] and other members of [[Walt Disney Company|Disney]]'s [[Duck family (Disney)|Duck family]]. Lustig's scripts have been illustrated by [[William Van Horn]] and other artists. In addition, Lustig has written [[Mickey Mouse]] scripts that have been drawn by [[Noel Van Horn]] (William's son) and others. His first script was for [[Gold Key Comics]] ("Flatfood Duck" ''Daffy Duck'' #112 [Dec. 1977]), done just after graduating from college (it would be a decade before he wrote any other comics).<ref>[http://www.comicvine.com/daffy-duck-/37-81092/ User Reviews]</ref>

Lustig has also become known for his post-modern rescripting of panels from old romance comic pages previously published by [[Charlton Comics]] under the banner Last Kiss. Besides four issues of the comic book ''Last Kiss'', the panels have also become a regular feature of ''[[Comics Buyer's Guide]]'', and recently expanded into being featured on T-shirts, greeting cards, and other merchandise.
