Synopsis

"DONALD AND HIS NEPHEWS FACE GHOSTS, WILD WEST VILLAINY, AND MUCH MORE IN NEW COLLECTION With this volume, 'The Complete Carl Barks Disney Library' loops back to Barks's earlier days, collecting the entirety of Barks's (astounding) 1948 output. The title story, 'The Old Castle's Secret,' is notable not just for being the first full-length 32-page adventure instigated by Scrooge McDuck (in his second-ever appearance), but for featuring some of Barks's spookiest, lushest settings in old Clan McDuck castle of Dismal Downs. The other long story, 'The Sheriff of Bullet Valley,' plunks Donald and the nephews in the Wild West, with Donald as an overconfident deputy having to deal with some high-tech rustlers. The book also includes the less-known 'In Darkest Africa,' originally published in a giveaway and unreleased for decades. This volume also features an even 10 of Barks's dynamic 'Walt Disney's Comics and Stories' 10-pagers, including 'Wintertime Wager' (the first appearance of a not-yet-lucky-but-still-obnoxious Gladstone Gander)

À propos des auteurs

Carl Barks (1901-2000, b. Merrill, Oregon; d. Grants Pass, Oregon), one of the most brilliant cartoonists of the 20th century, entertained millions around the world with his timeless tales of Donald Duck and Barks's most famous character creation, Uncle Scrooge. Over the course of his career, he wrote and drew more than 500 comics stories totaling more than 6,000 pages, most anonymously. He achieved international acclaim only after he semi-retired in 1968. Among many other honors, Barks was one of the three initial inductees into the Will Eisner Comic Awards Hall of Fame in 1987. (The other two were Jack Kirby and Will Eisner.) In 1991, Barks became the first Disney comic book artist to be recognized as a "Disney Legend," a special award created by Disney "to acknowledge and honor the many individuals whose imagination, talents, and dreams have created the Disney magic." He has been similarly honored in many other countries around the world.
