About this title

Synopsis:

We’re jumping from black and white to classic color―as Floyd Gottfredson’s Mickey Mouse series makes its 1932-35 Sunday strip debut! Our hero enjoys four years’ worth of wild weekend epics ... taking him from Uncle Mortimer’s Wild West ranch to the icy peak of frigid Mount Fishflake! Highlights include “Mickey’s Nephews,” introducing Morty and Ferdie Fieldmouse, and “Dr. Oofgay’s Secret Serum,” which turns Horace Horsecollar into a brainwashed wild mustang! Classic gag stories round out the book, offering manic Mouse mischief at a fever pitch. NOTE: Mickey Mouse Color Sundays: Call of the Wild contains cartoon violence and historically dated content presented in context.

About the Authors:

He created the most famous Mickey tales ever told in print. He is a Disney Legend and was inducted into the Will Eisner Award Hall of Fame in 2006.
