It all starts here! At last, fourteen years into their series collecting the entirety of the work Carl Barks produced for Dell (and, later, Gold Key) Comics, under the aegis of the Walt Disney Company, after starting in the middle and then working its way out in both directions, Fantagraphics has at last made it all the way to the 1942 begginings of Barks's classic run in 1942, with "Donald Duck Finds Pirate Gold" and Walt Disney's Comics & Stories #31. Yowza!
Also included are several super-obscure (and new to us) stories that were scripted – but not drawn – by Barks. Bonus!
After this – unless Fanta has a trick up its sleeve – only the last two volumes on The Carl Barks Library remain to be published.
