> Fantagraphics [1] has announced that they will be publishing a definitive
> collection of Carl Barks' [2] seminal run of Donald Duck comic stories. In

> revealed that the company—which announced their plans to publish Floyd
> Gottfredson's Mickey Mouse comics [3] last summer—had acquired the rights
> to reprint Barks' work from Disney and that the first volume will be
> released in fall of this year. The comics will be published in hardcover
