Product Description: Tied in with the release of Disney's classic DuckTales TV series on DVD, Gemstone is issuing these special graphic novels collecting the vintage Carl Barks Uncle Scrooge stories that DuckTales adapted to animation. This second volume includes "Giant Robot Robbers," "The Golden Fleecing," "The Horseradish Story," "The Status Seeker," "Tralla-La" and more!
Great reprint I was looking for a good reprint of some classic Carl Barks to share with my kids, and this is it. High quality production and excellent choices for stories, including the all-time great "Tralla La", i.e. the bottle cap story.
Classic Carl Barks cartoon gems This is great stuff... It's hard to beat these old, classic Carl Barks "Donald Duck" stories for their sheer entertainment value and craftsmanship, and for their family-friendly content. My kid recently expressed an interest in comic books, and I was dismayed to find out how little there is out there for really little kids to read... The old Harvey stuff is no longer on the market (and was way too dumb, anyway) and the superhero books I grew up on are just too violent, even reprints of the older stuff. The comicbook industry has grown up along with its readers, but it unfortunately forgot to leave some room for younger readers to enjoy the medium as well. Thank goodness, then, for these Disney reprints from Gladstone publishers -- if you're looking for kid-friendly comics that won't insult your intelligence, this is one of your best bets.

Wonderful comics Carl Barks did for talking ducks what Herge did for adventurous boy reporters. His Uncle Scrooge stories are fantastic examples of all ages material that is genuinely entertaining for all ages. A must for anyone with eyes.
DuckTales Volume 2 Great comic! Just as I remember the original stories. Great for jogging childhood memories!
As good as Volume 1 See my review for the first volume -- a wonderful collection by a great graphic storyteller. I hope more of Carl Barks' duck tales will be published in this series.
