Description

The 1930s were the heyday of Disney's second-ever newspaper comics feature: the full-color weekly Silly Symphonies! And with it came Donald Duck's first starring roles... from his debut as a barnyard brat to his battles with Mickey's naughty nephews--and the unforgettable debut of Donald's own riotous relatives, Huey, Dewey, and Louie, first created for this strip by artist Al Taliaferro!

Also included in this two-volume set: Zeke the Big Bad Wolf, always in pursuit of the Three Little Pigs--and Bucky Bug, the daring, mischievous beetle whose escapades took him from brutal birds of prey to the trenches of the Great Flyburg War! Plus more golden-age Silly Symphony cartoon stars: feisty Max Hare, slow-but-sure Toby Tortoise, that awful bandit Dirty Bill (who "never took a bath, and he never will!")... and timid Elmer Elephant, one of his adventures plotted by comics maestros Carl Barks and Walt Kelly!

Critical Reviews

Just some classic Disney-era stuff here. Really love to have it reproduced in this beautiful box set.-- "The Comic Book Report"

There are beautiful introductions here telling you the history of these particular comic strips and how they got started.-- "Near Mint Condition"
