Carl Barks Library of Walt Disney's Donald Duck Adventures in Color #22

Volume 22 of Gladstone's Carl Barks Library collects more of the master's work in full color, and the cover — penciled and inked by Carl Barks himself — sets an thrillingly prehistoric tone: Donald and one of his nephews sprint for their lives as a stampede of snarling dinosaurs, including a massive red tyrannosaur and a charging green predator, thunders toward them out of a rocky canyon. It's a wonderfully chaotic scene that captures Barks' gift for mixing genuine menace with irresistible cartoon energy. Fans of the Disney duck universe will find this 1995 collection a great way to experience these stories in the vibrant color treatment provided by Susan Daigle-Leach.
