Preview of Carl Barks' Donald Duck Lost in the Andes book from Fantagraphics

Having missed out on earlier comprehensive reprints of Carl Barks tremendous Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck work, I'm really looking forward to the first installment in Fantagraphics' Barks reprints: "Donald Duck: Lost in the Andes" this October.

Barks' classic long-form Duck tales offer a wonderful, whimsical blend of humor and adventure that's appealing to nostalgic adults and fun to read with your kids.

You can get an early peek at the book via a promotional flier for download here.
