    Biss zum Morgen (Lustiges Taschenbuch, #473)

    Biss zum Morgen by Walt Disney Company My rating: 1 of 5 stars I am very partial to good, spooky stories. I love reading them all snuggled up and having a good little scare. So, naturally, I was excited when I came across this edition of Lustiges Taschenbuch; the title and cover art looked so promising. I don’t think I have experienced a greater case of false advertisement than with this comic book. I admit, the first story, Biss zum Morgen, was somewhat spooky and included elements of the horror genre I have seen in previous Disney comics, but the rest of the stories just fell flat, really flat.

    Lustiges Taschenbuch Ultimate Phantomias 15: Die Chronik eines Superhelden

    Lustiges Taschenbuch Ultimate Phantomias 15: Die Chronik eines Superhelden by Walt Disney Company I have been staring at my computer screen for quite some time now, trying to figure out what to write and how to write it. What I would really like to write is this: shame on you Egmont Ehapa Verlag for editing an already published story and promoting it as a first publication…within the span of three volumes, nonetheless! In Ultimate Phantomias 13 the story was published under the title of “Ein Sponsor für Phantomias”; story by Giorgio Pezzin and artwork by Massimo De Vita. In Ultimate Phantomias 15 the story was published under the title of…

    Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck: The Richest Duck in the World

    Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck: The Richest Duck in the World by Don Rosa My rating: 5 of 5 stars A great conclusion to the narration of Uncle Scrooge’s life story. It was funny. It was sad. It contained adventure and intrigue. I appreciated and marvelled over the art work especially in this volume, which focused even more in the fine details in the background that gave a little extra dose of humour.

    Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck: Return to Plain Awful

    Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck: Return to Plain Awful by Don Rosa My rating: 4 of 5 stars A hilarious collection of Uncle Scrooge comics, featuring Donald Duck and the gang. I really enjoyed all of them except for one: “His Majesty, McDuck”. I have no idea why, but this one left a bitter taste in my mouth and I wasn’t really too invested while reading the rest of it.Other than that, it was great entertainment.
