Can someone please print which stories by which artists are in this volume? Amazon doesn't list them.

Looks great.
Does anyone know more about upcoming Gemstone comics for 2009?

From the editorial review further down the page:
Quote:This print companion series to Disney's famous DVDs celebrates milestones in Disney comics history. In honor of Donald Duck's 75th anniversary, join us in tracing his comics career from 1934 to the present! We get things started with classic newspaper comics; then Federico Pedrocchi's "Donald Duck, Special Correspondent" checks out war-torn Sylvania in a rare 1938 epic. Carl Barks' "Darkest Africa" takes the Ducks into the depths of the jungle, while Walt Kelly's "Surprise Party" finds Donald and the boys feuding over an ice cream cache. Tony Strobl's "Big Balloon Race" is his personal favorite self-written story, making its North American debut; while Giorgio Cavazzano's "Forgetful Hero" is a kamikaze pilot whose daredevil flights Scrooge, Donald, and Fethry are forced to reenact! "Room and Bored" finds William Van Horn's Donald turning a dull evening wild, while Don Rosa's "Once and Future Duck" hits Arthurian Britain in a feature-length time-travel trek. Join us for this unprecedented look at everybody's favorite duck!

Wow, sounds great!
Having "Once and Future Duck" in once piece will certainly be a treat!
All that other content looks great too, will pick this up for sure! Can't believe he'll be 75 next year. I wonder if there are any plans to reprint "The Duck Who Never Was" around June?
Will Barks
Sounds like a good collection of Donald Stories :). I'm looking forward to get this!

I don't know I think The Duck Who Never Was would be a little too dated for modern audiences but it was a good story. Maybe they will reprint it sometime next year. After all look what they did with A Little Something Special.

I know you're not calling a story dated with all the million-and-three Barks reprints we tend to get (lol because victory gardens are still in use). :)

Haha, indeed.

If there's anything dated about it, it might be more related to the plot device having to do with Donald's 60th birthday.
Roger North
Yeah That's what I mean when I say it was dated. As We all know that Donald's 60th birthday was in 1994. Then again if A Little Something Special got reprinted then it's not impossible for The Duck Who Never Was to be reprinted. Maybe I should start a seperate thread for this.

Anybody know why I can't find Kelly's "Surprise Party" or Stobl's "Big Ballon Race" or Cavazzano's "Forgetful Hero" in the INDUCKS search?

We should all have victory gardens for the war on global warming! It is, indeed, topical (and might soon be tropical-if we don't participate)!

Isn't that getting political? And open to a can of debate-worms?

Good question. It's not a software problem; there are only 4 stories with Donald by Walt Kelly in Inducks (three of them with the Seven Dwarfs, the 3 Caballeros or Jiminy Cricket, 1 recently reprinted by Gemstone). Nothing seems to match. Something missing in Inducks? a Gemstone error?

"Big Ballon Race" doesn't appear anywhere in Inducks - it's possible though that Gemstone is reprinting (or printing, for the first time in the US) a Strobl "Studio" story and decided to use a different (better) title.

Cavazzano's "Forgetful Hero": maybe a translation of an Italian title, and a story not yet published in the US.

Note: it's perfectly fine to express political/personal views here, as long as people behave courteously and civily,and respect each other. That's my idea of this forum, but I think you'll agree with me...

Posts should also be at least in part on-topic (about Disney and comics). If not, one of us may create a "off-topic" thread so that other people can skip discussions they're not interested in.
