This new Gemstone trade paperback series collects the comics of beloved Dutch Duck Man Daan Jippes! Alternating volumes will collect Jippes' "re-creations" of Carl Barks-written stories and (as in this volume) Jippes' classic solo stories. In this book we offer Jippes' earliest, rarest Disney comics work, including collaborations with famous colleague Freddy Milton! Donald sabotages a Junior Woodchuck medal quest in "The Great Survival Test," battles Gladstone Gander's ferryboat in "The Success Test," and dismantles Duckburg's giant town hall clock in "A Clean Case of Competence!" Short Donald, Mickey Mouse and Hiawatha tales round out this beautifully drawn collection.
In Daan Jippes' "Serenity Serenade," Donald Duck and the boys are having a nice life as beachcombers, despite bureaucratic annoyances like needing a salvage permit. Until, that is, their idyll is disturbed by Uncle Scrooge... and a machine that sucks everything from the ocean floor! Next, it's raining monkeys in the final chapter of Floyd Gottfredson's "Mickey Mouse Sails For Treasure Island" -- with the climactic battle between Mickey, Pegleg Pete, a gorilla army, and the enigmatic Bill Shakespeare! Wrapping up the issue are two outrageous comedies: Carl Barks presents Huey, Dewey, and Louie's classic "Picnic Tricks," while Byron Erickson's Duck Avenger fights the forces of "Sound and Fury!
In "Unfair at the Funfair," Gladstone Gander thinks Donald Duck will bring him luck... so drags him through a day at Duckburg's wildest amusement park! Then, in Noel Van Horn's "Wildwood," a bored Mickey seeks a backwoods getaway... and finds war with sneaky showman Odious Crumb and the proverbial Fish Out of Water. Gus Goose battles "Locust Loco" in a new Daan Jippes jaunt; then "Fireman Donald" goes to blazes in a classic Barks tale. Finally, Big Bad Wolf turns crooked pizza promoter in an unprecedented long adventure: Massimo Fecchi's "Some Like It Hot!
Decades in the past, Scrooge vowed to split a gold strike with mining pal Blair Dunwitty. Today, con men occupy Scrooge's money bin, claiming to be Dunwitty's heirs! Scrooge can only roust them by finding Dunwitty alive... but vicious thugs don't make that easy in Miquel Pujol's awesome, epic-length "Grand Canyon Conquest!" Up next, Scrooge tries bear-taming in Daan Jippes' "Scrappy Mettle"; then Donald wins a screenwriting gig from "Film-Buff.com," leading to a blockbuster like Tinseltown's never seen!
