Free Comic Book Day Preview: Ducks, Smurfs And Buck Rogers

Another few previews of comics coming up for Free Comic Book Day on Saturday May the third. And here are some classic kids comics – even if some of them have never been published in the US before.

Don Rosa's Uncle Scrooge And Donald Duck

Publisher: FANTAGRAPHICS BOOKS

(W/A/CA) Don Rosa

In "A Matter of Some Gravity" by fan-favorite Don Rosa, saucy sorceress Magica De Spell turns Scrooge's life sideways – literally! – when she distorts the forces of gravity! Then, in "The Sign of the Triple Distelfink", Lucky Gladstone Gander faces a 24-hour luck jinx – and battles to hide it from a gloating Cousin Donald! Only ever published in the USA in under-printed mid-1990's editions, these Rosa classics are back like you've never seen them before!

Smurfs

Publisher: Papercutz

The Smurfs return to Free Comic Book Day! This year's offering features never-before-seen comic stories from Péyo starring everyone's favorite blue bombshell: the Smurfette! It's Smurftastically Free!

Buck Rogers

Publisher: HERMES PRESS

(W) Howard Chaykin, Russell Keaton (A) Howard Chaykin & Various

Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, the first, best and original sci-fi hero, is supporting Free Comic Book day with a special re-print of one complete Sunday story, "Prophet of the Fire Demon," by fabled artist Russell Keaton! This story has been painstakingly digitally-reconstructed to perfection, and looks better than the original newspaper Sundays! Hermes Press' Buck Rogers FCBD issue will also offer bonus material and tons of surprises!
