Description

Wild Silver Age comics classics follow squabbling Donald and Fethry Duck from hill country to the briny deep!

Who lives in a submarine under the sea? Donald’s cuckoo-bananas cousin Fethry, that’s who! He’s roping desperate Don into a two-week treasure hunt on the ocean floor… and a bear-taming trip to Duckburg’s deepest woods—and a mission to cure hiccups with scary rural remedies! Are fame and fortune worth it?

Cartoon story man Dick Kinney and beloved kids’-comic artist Al Hubbard jammed on Disney duck tales in the swinging ’60s—and by popular demand, Fantagraphics’ Disney Masters series continues to collect their best! From Fethry’s terrifying turn as Uncle Scrooge’s efficiency expert in “It’s Only Money” to Donald’s romantic woes in “A Midsummer’s Nightmare,” the mayhem keeps on coming!

Fantagraphics’ Disney Masters series unearths a treasure trove of previously unavailable comics epics in the grand Walt Disney tradition: expanding the lore of Mickey, Donald, and Scrooge, anthologizing the work of fan-favorite North American talents, and bringing you the best of the acclaimed international artists who have popularized Disney around the world. Rediscover Duckburg… and rewrite history!

About the Author

Richard Timothy "Dick" Kinney (December 15, 1916 in Utah – March 24, 1985 in Glendale, California) was an American animator and comic book writer. His comic book work was mostly in Disney comics, writing stories featuring Donald Duck and Scrooge McDuck. He was the writer who, along with artist Al Hubbard, created Fethry Duck and Hard Haid Moe. Kinney is the younger brother of fellow Disney animator Jack Kinney. Earlier, as an animation writer, Kinney was part of the story crew on various Disney, Walter Lantz Productions, UPA and Jack Kinney Productions/King Features Syndicate theatrical and TV cartoons. The Lantz cartoon "Niagara Fools," featuring Woody Woodpecker, represented perhaps Kinney's most fondly remembered original storyline. Later, Kinney would remake the story for comics with Fethry Duck in, essentially, the Woody role.

Allan "Al" Hubbard (1913–1984, d. Fallbrook, California) joined the Disney animation department in 1937 then left in 1941 to become a full-time comics artist.

David Gerstein is an animation and comics researcher, writer, and editor best known for his work with The Walt Disney Company and its licensees. His published projects include Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck: The Don Rosa Library (Fantagraphics, 2014-2018) and Mickey Mouse: The Ultimate History (with J.B. Kaufman; Taschen, 2018). He lives in North Carolina.
