Bowie David: The Last Interview: Bowie David:...
Detta del av The Last Interview-serien koncentrerar sig på David Bowie. Bowie var känd för sin fascinerande vägran att förbli densamma - samma som andra trendiga artister, eller till och med samma som han själv, intellektualismen, konstnärligheten och humorn bakom det hela, diskussioner om hans sexualitet, hans droganvändning, hans sinne för mode, hur han komponerade. Ett måste för alla Bowie-fans.

Walt Disney's Donald Duck the Pixilated Parrot: The Complete Carl Barks Disney Library Vol. 9
Carl Barks delivers another superb collection of clever plot twists, laugh-out-loud comedy, and all-around cartooning brilliance.

Then, Donald and the boys are shanghaied by a mysterious stranger, who whisks them off to face perils in the desert in 'Ancient Persia,' where they uncover a lost city--and its reconstituted inhabitants And Barks cuts loose from his regular panel designs to deliver one of his finest stories, 'Vacation Time' (it has its own Wikipedia page), as Donald displays unusual depths of courage and heroism when he has to rescue Huey, Dewey, and Louie on a wilderness outing gone wrong.
