While the Ducks look a little "off" in both of those scans--they just seem too distorted, and the expressions are odd--I like the attempt at drawing "unique" panel-layouts. This is definitely a change from Barks' traditional four-teir layout that has been used so many times in Duck stories. (That format works, but I like seeing unique panel-layouts in my Duck stories.)<BR>
<BR>
And this especially works for a digest format. While the artist(s?) seem to draw the Ducks awkwardly, they have a talent for knowing the "feel" of how a comic book story should be done.<BR>
<BR>
Or something.<BR>
<BR>
At any rate, I'll be buying these books no matter how mediocre they are. (What can I say? I'm biased...)<BR>

Thanks for reading this nonsense,<BR>
