Anybody who regards these as "kid" comics are missing out on some the greatest writing and drawing in comics history. Carl Barks is a genius storyteller and, in my opinion, we NEED a lot more good storytelling in today's comics. The other great thing is after you've read Barks you have all the great Duck stuff from Don Rosa to look forward to and, imho, there is no let down in the art or storytelling. Thank you, Omar, for shining a spotlight on this man and his work. #OmarRules #BarksIsATitan

Scrooge McDuck is one of the two best comic characters ever created, along Maggie from Love & Rockets.

Me before Near Mint Condition: Duck comics are for kids.
Me after watching Omar talk about Duck Comics: Hellz yeah! Placing an order on a couple of the ones he highlighted.

You'd like the Italian comics, they are insane. They made Donald a superhero, secret agent, and galaxy level hero

[travisgilmer]

Dude, you finally did it!! Thanks so much man, this is awesome and I have been looking forward to this for a long time!

I am 47 and read all of these in various forms 40 years ago, and now I read them again because the next generation still loves them. They have modern duck comics, but they also still like the old ones, which somehow still don't feel TOO dated, despite being 50 or more years old. Because the Ducks go on adventure all the time, you don;t miss modern stuff, the only odd thing that catches the eye is that they don;t have mobile phones

Itá always nice to see how much the character of Donald Duck has inpired!♥

[Memphisflash]

Fantastic books, truly THE treasure in the collection, it stands heads and shoulder above all! Just hope I'm still alive when this series is finished (another 10 or so)

This is on that “I need to read through this before I die” list but know nothing about it. This is an invaluable resource.

These were the first comics I ever read, probably around 1980. Pretty much my favorites of all time, too. And that's not just nostalgia speaking - I rediscovered these many years later when I bought some of them for my nephews. Barks' writing has a really timeless quality to it. (Still remembered pretty much every story you showed in the video, too.)


All his stories have been printed here in Germany. Many times. I'm currently still collecting the HC editions divided by the original American series ("Donald Duck", "Comics & Stories", "Uncle Scrooge", etc.). A bit larger than an omnibus, about 180 pages each. Just the stories in those, though - not the editorials from the earlier "Barks Library" releases in softcover.


I'd love to see you do the video on the Rosa box sets. Looks like we're finally starting to get these over here this year, too. About time I got more Rosa stuff - Barks is my favorite, but he did some phenomenal work as well.

Good evening. In Italy we have original and untraslate Carl Barks' Donald Duck, we call him Paperino. In Italy there's Also a monthly comics for him, One for his uncle and One for his alter-ego Duck Avenger (PK). Congratulations for your work from Italy

[Rob-zk]

These need to be released with vol numbers

[mariellehultquist]

Donald duck comics best comic ever. I have a huge DD collection with comics, albums, books and pocket books 😍😍

[skooter]

Carl Barks!!! Great video, thanks for listing the first appearances.And in the 50’s I believe Uncle Scrooge outsold all other comics.

[williamjackson]

Great review. Scrooge Mc Duck & The Beagle Boys were so popular that they had their own comic-books when I was a boy. Those were as popular Donald & I`ll bet he didn`t get paid for those creations.

[michaelemond]

I started saying "I'll only get the Uncle Scrooge appearances" five years later I have them all. Donald, Gyro Gearloose, Grandma Duck all of them :). They are so great and addictive.

[nerlmarchetto]

Best video of the year! Thank you so so much, Omar!!

[JonDelArroz]

BEST VIDEO! I don't have any of the Carl Barks ones I need to pick these up.

[Popesize]

Wow, there are so many pages that i recall from my childhood. Never had an idea how much Carl Barks did. I knew what characters he created but not all the stories.
There are a lot of collections of these Ducks-comics here in Sweden. But for me it was enough with the "The life and time of Scrooge McDuck" (and its compendium)
