"The Magnificent Doublejoke," Part 1! A bizarrely trollish crimefighter turns Mickey's and Pegleg Pete's lives upside down! Then it's Mickey vs. Mortimer in "Early to Bid!"

As a painter and a sculptor, an excellent draftsman and a designer, David Gerstein seeks to expand the limits of two-dimensional paintings into three-dimensional sculptures. In his choice of subject matter, he breaks down the existing barriers between the work of art and its audience by creating enchanted and straightforward images, which render, at times, intimate, dream-like scenes and at other times, cinemascope-like, large scale, choreographed events. His easily recognizable artistic colorful syntax have developed gradually, reflecting a search for a distinct voice, which ranges from the local to the universal and echoes several levels of representation simultaneously.

It’s a “lost” 1965 Disney epic, deemed too wild for publication and saved only in tantalizing fragments... or is it? When Pegleg Pete and the Beagle Boys shrink and steal Scrooge’s Money Bin, Mickey and Donald must track them down—in what is really a brand-new album-length thriller by comics masters Lewis Trondheim and Nicolas Keramidas: told in an amazing indy style and presented like a treasure suspended in time!

Originally published as: Uncle Scrooge issues #1-3 (Legacy #405-407).

A complete collection of beautifully rendered Disney art, graphically depicting both produced and non-produced Disney cartoon shorts from the 1930s and 1940s. These story ad pages were utilized by Disney in Good Housekeeping Magazine to both promote their cartoons and to act as springboards for other merchandising. This handsome coffee-table book collects all of those ad pages and matches them up with many examples of the other material that sprang from them.

“The Search For the Zodiac Stone—Chapter 6!” Donald hits Hawaii to find the powerful Pisces pendant. But Gladstone Gander might be more powerful still! Then Oswald the Lucky Rabbit celebrates Christmas at Ortensia’s... but everything goes wrong “Just Like Magic!”
