Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck: The Don Rosa Library Vol. 1

Collecting the first thirteen comic stories written and drawn by Don Rosa, Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck: The Don Rosa Library Vol. 1 sees the many works that were done under him from 1987 to '88 through Gladstone Comics. The majority of them centered on Uncle Scrooge, but a few of them did focus on Donald and/or Huey, Dewey, and Louie. These stories include the iconic The Son of the Sun, which was not only Rosa's first professionally published story but immediately popularized him, the Beagle Boys centered Cash Flow, and Last Sled to Dawson centering on Scrooge's early days. Having been inspired by Carl Barks and his work on Donald Duck comics from the '40s to the '60s, Don's stories owe a lot to his predecessor. His writing has a lot of great wit, charm, and lots of good gags and comedic bits, while his artwork is well detailed. The stories are well told and it's easy to see how both the original and newer DuckTales were highly inspired by Rosa and Barks's comics. If Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck: The Don Rosa Library Vol. 1 shows how incredible Don's work from the first two years of his twenty year run are, then there's no doubt that the rest will be just as fun. Over all: 100%
