Stavner you should be happy to know that Boom Studios is bringing back Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers next month.
Charlie Brown
Funny, that you remembered this post from 2008.

Not exactly Disney comics, but I would like to see something similar to the Four Color comics again.
Kcduck
Donald Duck Adventures and Uncle Scrooge Adventures

Dutch Duckfan some of these issues are Disney Comics even though not all of them are. I just happened to stumble across it Charlie Brown.

I know some issues are Disney, but it's not exactly a full-Disney series. There are about 1000 issues without Disney comics.
Roger North
You are right Dutch. There are at least a 1000 issues. I'm surprised it ran for that long.
Dutch Duckfan Down Under
It only ran for 20 years. It had 1354 issues, with some left unpublished when Dell stopped. Yes, I know my oldies... :)

Quote from user: Roger NorthThat is a lot of Issues Dutch. Too Bad they are not all Disney.
There were a lot of high-quality "funny animal" comics in the Four Color series (Warner Bros.:-Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, (related to Loony Tunes); Tom & Jerry (related to Our Gang); Walter Lantz (Woody Woodpecker), Animal Comics (Pogo & Albert, Uncle Wiggly), and others, other than Disney. Most of them had the same crew of Western Publishing writers and artists that wrote and drew the non-Barks/non Gottfredson Disney stories. Barks, Gottfredson, Strobl and Murray wouldn't have worked on any more drawing than they did. I'm not sure I would have liked any more Disney stories drawn by Western's lesser artists than those those artists drew for Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, Loony Tunes, Woody Woodpecker, Barney Bear. I don't think it would have mattered to me if there were 1,000 more US Disney Comics between 1942 and 1962 written by lesser writers and drawn by lesser artists. I would have spent a little more money, and then thrown out a few hundred less comic books if the entire Four Color series had been Disney, rather than other funny animal, and "live action" books (cowboy/westerns, etc.).

Maybe they should do a series that is similar to the Four Color series except that it should be all Disney Characters. They could call it Disney Comics All Stars or something like that.
