Walt Disney Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck Vol. 4: The Last of the Clan McDuck: The Don Rosa Library Vol. 4 Kindle & comiXology

I collect comics and I ordered this as a Christmas present for someone who also enjoys comics. The book was not wrapped in plastic, so I was able to read through it in order to write this review before giving the gift. The book was only available in hardcover when I purchased it. The book is beautiful and the colors and text are bold and sharp. The book cover is blue inside.The contents:Table of ContentsPage 6: PrefacePage 9: Of Ducks and Dimes and Destinies, Uncle Scrooge #297Page 25: The Last of the Clan McDuck, Uncle Scrooge #285Page 41: The Master of the Mississippi, Uncle Scrooge #286Page 69: The Buckaroo of the Badlands, Uncle Scrooge #287Page 85: The Raider of the Copper Hill, Uncle Scrooge #288Page 101: The New Laird of Castle McDuck, Uncle Scrooge #289Page 117: The Terror of the Transvaal, Uncle Scrooge #290Page 129: The Dreamtime Duck of the Never Never, Uncle Scrooge #291Page 145: Behind the ScenesPage 176: This Should Cover It All!

It mostly discusses how Rosa tried to incorporate Carl Barks' account of Scrooge McDuck's early life into the Life and Times.Pages 9-144 of this book contain the first part of the Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck (the story was in Uncle Scrooge #285-296). Chronologically, the prequel to the story is Uncle Scrooge #297; this chapter is not part of the original story."Behind the Scenes" discusses the chapters of the Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck in greater detail. It gives more information on how and why certain things happened, and some trivia/ facts about how the story was written."This Should Cover It All!" contains 10 full-page pieces of art done by Rosa between 1992-1994. These are covers for Barks classics, other projects and special art pieces." The Life and Times of Don Rosa: The Buckaroo of the Biography" is a 2 page biography discussing how Rosa worked with Disney Comics and Gladstone on the Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck.I've also attached a couple of photos of the book, including the table of contents.Before I ordered this book, I looked all over online for details about what was in this book and I could not find any information beyond "maybe part of Life and Times". So I hope this review will be helpful to you.

I have wanted to read The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck for years, but it’s price tag kept me from it. Now, thanks to these volumes, I finally have...and it’s everything I hoped for! I’ve always worried nostalgia and hype may have played into the fervor surrounding this work, but I am extremely glad to see that it is as great as its lauded to be! A must read for any Disney fan.

Don Rosa's work comes in a close second to my hero, Carl Barks.

Excellent copy. This version is a compliment to the smaller books put out some years ago reflecting 12 issues of Scrooge McDucks Life. It also chronicles some of the missing pieces in the large format hard copy "Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck by Carl Barks, published in the mid-1980's.Worth having and certainly worth reading.

As someone who loves the attention to detail that Don Rosa brings, this is an absolute delight. Bought it for my kids - but I find myself reading it quite a bit!

Not as good as Barks but while Rosa has a style of his own it sure has it's roots in Barks' original stories.

Luxurious binding, great paper, vivid colors, author comments, extras. A must have for Don Rosa fans!

If you don't know Don Rosa, you don't know comic books. A master storyteller and one of the top 10 greatest comic stories of all time. An American art classic!

Don Rosa nunca defrauda, una recopilación de sus mejores historias, en una edición de las mejores, sino la mejor de todas absolutamente recomendable.

Produto maravilhoso. Capa dura, várias histórias, muitos comentários e croquis do Don Rosa. Dimensões bem maiores do que eu imaginava. Entrega em menos de uma semana :] Muito feliz com a compra.

El contenido está muy interesante, pero llegó maltratado de las esquinas y la parte externa de las hojas estaban sucias

Best Disney Duck author since Barks himself! Love this guys stuff and so should you! Do yourself a favour and pick up these fabulous adventures bound in beautiful hardcover for your kids AND yourself! You won't regret it! Thank you Fantagraphics! I've been WAITING for these!

Excellent book, great for collecting and reading.
