Stuff of Interest - May 2006 - Carl Barks' DuckTales v1

Good to see a good thick collection of classic Barks (with a second volume coming soon after, according to the Amazon listings, so if your favourite long Scrooge adventure isn't up there it's probably in the second one). These are being released to tie-in with the recent DVD release of the cartoon series, which is a pretty good show as far as TV animation goes, especially the ones I saw that used the Barks stories (although they always replaced Donald and added some original-to-the-cartoon ducks). Anyway, all those are classics, and "Lemming With the Locket" is a particular favourite.
