Barks created the characters and format in Disney comics. Magon developed the television version.
It was one of the earliest television animation programs produced by Disney and the first to air in a syndicated format, which was then embellished with other series in the "Disney Afternoon" programming block. Its' success led to many other made-for-TV Disney projects of varying quality.
I'm more familiar with the original '80s version, but I'm interested in seeing how the remake measures up.
