Disney Comics / 75 Years of Innovation : 4 of 5

Although I'm not so thrilled with modern Disney comics, I really love the older Disney classic strips! One of my Christmas gifts this year was this excellent collection, cleverly designed in the same style as the Disney Treasures DVD series. There are tons of great stories here, all printed perfectly and ready to enjoy (which I have been doing for the past several days)! I like how the book includes historic moments like the first visit from Huey, Duey & Louie, but also more obscure characters like Ellsworth, Goofy's bird friend (that I had never heard of). Speaking of Goofy, there are even some really old strips where Goofy is still called Dippy! I like the stories where Mickey is on a big adventure like climbing a mountain, since he always stays positive no matter the circumstances. The book also has a nice introduction about the history of Disney comics, which talks a lot about the international success of Disney magic in comic form. This is a fantastic collection of great Disney stories and a nice overview of Disney comics in general!
