Walt Disney's Donald Duck (WALT DISNEY DONALD DUCK HC)

Walt Disney's Donald Duck (WALT DISNEY DONALD DUCK HC)

This collection of Carl Barksâ€™ world-famous Disney comics includes Uncle Scroogeâ€™s first appearance, a Christmas tale and many other adventure yarns.
Scrooge McDuck is now such a fixture in the Disney universe that few remember Carl Barks had been writing and drawing Donald Duck stories for half a decade before he cooked up the miserly multiplujillionaire â€• for what he thought would be a one-time Christmas yarn involving Donald, the nephews, Scrooge in a bearskin, and (inevitably) a couple of real bears. â€œChristmas on Bear Mountainâ€ is one of Barksâ€™s funniest holiday stories and a true landmark in comics history, and offers a fascinating look at a rough-edged, genuinely nasty character whom Barks would soon soften... Scrooge aside, thereâ€™s plenty of fun to be had in this volume. In â€œVolcano Valleyâ€ Donald and the Nephews end up stuck in Volcania, a south-of-the-border country inhabited by sombrero-wearing, siesta-addicted Volcanians. Other long-form adventures include the self-explanatory â€œAdventure Down Under,â€ as well as one of Barksâ€™s most atmospheric thrillers, the West Indies-based â€œGhost of the Grotto,â€ which includes a lovely night-time sequence drawn in Barksâ€™s trademark silhouettes and a giantoctopus- vs.-hot-chili-peppers throwdown that climaxes in an explosive splash panel. The book is rounded off with seven of Barksâ€™s hilarious 10-pagers, and as with the previous volumes, Walt Disneyâ€™s Donald Duck: Christmas on Bear Mountain has been scanned from crisp vintage art and meticulously colored to match the original printingâ€™s warm, simple hues, and features abundant critical and historical notes penned by some of duckdomâ€™s finest experts. We are also offering a boxed set that combines the newWalt Disneyâ€™s Donald Duck: Christmas on Bear Mountain with the 2012 release Walt Disneyâ€™s Donald Duck: A Christmas for Shacktown for a great Christmas-themed box set (see following page).
