Free Walt Disney's Donald Duck: "Trick Or Treat" (The Carl Barks Library) Ebooks Online
This volume kicks off with “Trick or Treat" ― a comic-book version of the classic Disney animated short, with nine pages restored ― and includes Barks’s favorite, “Omelet,” where Donald Duck becomes…a chicken farmer?! Our lead-off story, “Trick or Treat,” is the master cartoonist’s adaptation of the Donald Duck cartoon of the same name ― with nine pages added back in from the originally truncated version! Then, Donald is convinced that Huey, Dewey, and Louie’s toy gun can really put people into a hypnotic spell ― so he tries it out on Uncle Scrooge! Hijinks abound as Uncle Scrooge plants pots of gold at the foot of a rainbow to see who will handle the money best ― Donald, Gladstone, or the nephews. Also, one of Barks’s own personal favorites, “Omelet” ― the story of Donald’s slapstick misadventures as a chicken farmer (?!). Nineteen stories, plus bonus features, each meticulously restored and newly colored. Insightful story notes by an international panel of Barks experts. Full-color illustrations throughout

It's almost Halloween and what a great time for a Halloween themed collection of Carl Barks comics. I had a theory that Fantagraphics was leading with the best material first including many of the stories considered the top by experts but here we are with the 10th released volume and this may be my favorite yet. For those who love high adventure you may be disappointed because most of the stories stay in Duckburgh but after 10 years of creating Donald Duck the legendary Carl Barks had really hit his stride. I'm also a big fan of holiday stories and readers get Halloween stories, a Thanksgiving story, a Christmas story and even an Easter story.Disney comic fans are being absolutely spoiled. We now have Carl Barks entire library being collected as well as Floyd Gottfredson's Mickey Mouse and starting a month or so ago Al Taliaferro Donald Duck which turned out to be much better than I expected. Fantagraphics always does a marvelous job of presenting Carl Barks brilliant material with cleaned up images and generally interesting story analysis. I say generally because a lot of the analysis has become little more than a plot summary which doesn't really make sense to include since the stories are right there in the book. There are bits of fascinating info but Fantagraphics may be getting a little lazy with the story analysis.Trick or Treat (32 pages) - Nov 1952Donald spoils his nephews Halloween with a rather sadistic trick so Witch Hazel helps the boys extract revenge. Donald, however, is no pushover. This may be the most censored Barks story yet if you don't count the stories that were pulled entirely. Fantagraphics added back 9 pages that were not published in the original comic book.
