World of the Dragonlords (Walt Disney’s…)

    (Gemstone, 2005)
™ and ©2005 Disney Enterprises, Inc.

Life is often bizarre for Donald Duck, Uncle Scrooge, and nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie, so it isn’t surprising when a family picnic goes awry! Yanked through an inter-dimensional portal, the gang goes where no duck has gone before: smack in the middle of a war between dragon-riding barbarians and strange creatures called humans.

Originally designed to be serialized in Germany’s weekly Micky Maus, Dragonlords did not see print until 2003 in Donald Duck Sonderheft, a monthly fanzine. It was later published in Italy and Finland before finally being released by Gemstone in the USA .

Despite years devoted to the book, writer Byron Erickson (former Gladstone editor who ‘discovered’ Don Rosa and William van Horn) admits he preferred Mickey Mouse over the Ducks. Sadly, this favoritism shows, as this story, which is strongly reminiscent of classic Mickey and Goofy adventures, falls a little flat as a Duck family tale.
