The Andy Kaufman of comic art..........2004-04-23

My parents bought or were given this book when I was a kid and I've read the whole thing a million times. Kliban has a clever, dark and silly sense of humor that's second to none. The majority of the cartoons in this book exhibit that, while many seem to be for his enjoyment only; they don't make any apparent sense. If you like outside-the-box humor this book is a must-have.

Can't Tell You How Much My Hubby and I Loath This Book - a review of Donald's Adventures #14.......2007-01-23

If you were wondering why there is no 'search inside this book' feature, please consider that the marketing people at Disney are not that stupid. Seeing-inside would have you concluding, like me, that here was a book that sincerely deserves being buried in a peat bog until the end of time.

What's the problem? Well, what's not. There is just nothing of merit here. The artwork is bland, the plots nearly non-existent, and the stereotypes, offensive. Now, more precisely...

The artwork: Disney bland. Not of itself offensive though. Just dated. T'wer that this was the only problem.

The plotting: The stories are slapped together with no respect for the reader (my six y.o. thought they were 'stupid').

In the first story, for example, Duck Avenger loses fight after fight to the bad guys. Defeated and feeling incompetent, he resolves to go on vacation, where **wah-lah** a character never seen before appears as a mastermind who joyfully takes credit for the Avenger's defeat. Duck Avenger turns the tables, however, by claiming to have known all along.

There are no clues that foreshadow this. It's just dumped in the reader's lap.

Offensive: there is such a blatant anti-girl message in the Minnie story that my husband stopped reading it to our son after the third page.

Characters say the following:

"You know females belong in the kitchen, not in the lab!
"Females are so irrational"
"Ha, Ha! Females have no head for science!"
That's no reason for women to turn into grease monkeys! I ask you! Doing Men's Work and..."

One Star. Three feeble stories in this collection. No interesting plots; they aren't challenging nor interesting even to young children. The dialog is weak and so non-PC as to make prejudiced people's knees jerk. Give this one (and probably all the rest) a pass.

Book Description

All-new long adventures featuring Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse, Uncle Scrooge and other Disney characters. In "The Search for Bigfoot," a TV show offers a million dollars to anyone who can present conclusive proof that Bigfoot exists. Donald takes to the woods; and what do you know, our hero actually finds the fabled beast! But it's a monstrous lady yeti with a monster of a crush on Donald. In "Blot Clot," the Phantom Blot is painting the moon with a gigantic, hypnotic spiral. When people on Earth see it, they'll become the villain's mindless serfs! Well, not if Mickey Mouse can help it. But it's a race against time to reach outer space and foil the evil scheme. Finally, "The Bathtub at the Edge of Forever" is a modern-day classic. When Donald irreversibly activates a super-bomb Gyro Gearloose was building for the military, he's desperate to stop it before it levels the city. His solution is to send the bomb back in time with Gyro's time machine... but he may cause some extinctions in the process!
