Walt Disney’s Comics First Appearances #1
A truly historic collection of stories, for each represents a landmark issue of Walt Disney's Comics and Stories for collectors and aficionados of the work of Carl Barks. Barks, whose Donald Duck short stories became the feature attraction in Walt Disney's Comics and Stories shortly after their introduction in 1943, quickly went on to populate Donald's hometown of Duckburg with a variety of unforgettable characters of his own invention.
This book contains three stories that reprint the first appearances of three such characters for the pages of Disney's flagship title: Scrooge McDuck, Donald's multi-billionaire tightwad uncle; Gladstone Gander, Donald's exasperatingly lucky cousin; and the Junior Woodchucks, the know-it-all scout group to which Donald's nephews, Huey, Dewey and Louie belong.
Also included is the "Legends" Premium Card - with Photos of Barks and a listing of when and where each Barks' character appeared.
