Topic: Does anyone remember Disney's Collossal Comics Collection?

(14 messages)

I was wondering if anyone remembers Disney's Collossal Comics Collection? It's a small digest published by The Walt Disney Company back when they published their own comic books. It's an anthology comic book that had stories based on popular Disney TV Shows from before 1993. Does anyone besides me miss it?
Whutchings
Yeah, I remember them and I still have a couple of them somewhere at my mom's house!

That's cool Whutchlings. I have at least seven issues. Issues 4-10. I wish I had the whole series though. I'm missing issues 1-3.

It sounds familiar, but if there's still one out there, I WANT IT!!! :)

They don't publish it anymore Lady Quackly. They stopped publishing them in 1993 just before The Walt Disney Company stopped publishing their own comic books.

Oh, I meant an "antique" issue...but I'm not surprised. Pity, because I think they'd sell just as well today.

You're right Lady Quackly. They probably would if any of the former Disney Afternoon shows came on the cable networks.

I doubt that you will find to many available but for a quick pic of the covers, check out the following:

I remember them also, as I have all 10 issues. I enjoyed them very much. The first ones more than the last few because starting out they were just Ducktales, Rescue Rangers, Darkwing Duck. Also, a great deal at $1.95. It is kind of weird though how the first issue was about double the size of all the rest, but still the same price. I believe they were collections of the Disney Adventures Magazine comic stories, but I am not sure since I have none of those.
And to answer your other question Roger, I do miss them as I miss any Disney comic that has been discontinued.

RanciDuck,
We're missing #1, 6 and 10, maybe you can help with listing the contents of those issues?

It's good to know that other people miss them as much as I do. Thanks for the website Whutchings.

Yes, I remember these very clearly.
I went to a local drug store and bought an issue. I remember it caught my eye because it looked just like Disney Adventures but contained only comics. I must've been about 10 years old.
About a year ago I bought 5 or 6 on Ebay and really enjoyed them.
I just moved so they are away in boxes right now, so I cant' recall which numbers I have. I'm hoping to finish the set now that I've bought a house and finally have the room/disposable income.
