Maria Joao Pato is the daughter of the irrepressible Luis Pato, champion of the Bairrada and president of the Baga brigade. Maria, or just Joao (like her grandfather and nephew) works with her father, but has a few side projects, one of them being Duckman; an everyone or no one type of ART-isanal character meant to provoke and inspire. Kite Duck is Nerd Duck's inverse; a white from red juice and white skins.
