Mickey’s Craziest Adventures is a fun, wacky, roller coaster ride where you the reader join Mickey, Donald and his nephews, Pete, Dr Ludwig Von Drake and more on adventures on land, sea, air and even in space.

I really enjoyed reading Mickey’s Craziest Adventures. The art is detailed and crazy like the story. The artwork works perfect with thr crazy adventures that Mickey and Donald go on.

After reading Mickey’s Craziest Adventures I want to read more Mickey and Donald comic books. These stories feel like they are taken right from the crazy world of the modern Mickey Mouse cartoons where anything can happen. Mickey and his friends can go on adventures anywhere in the world from under the sea to Paris to outer space to a helicopter ride chasing the Beagle Boys. Everything is possible and that’s awesome.

When I saw this title on Netgalley, I knew I had to request. I'm a huge Disney fan, so Mickey having some old-fashioned fun comic book adventures seemed exactly my speed. This collection is unique since it wants to make you think that it's an old comic collection that was found and refurbished when really it is a brand new set of adventures published current day. This concept sounded so cool, but I was trying not to get my hopes too high going into this.

I'm glad I kept myself in check. If my expectations were too high I might not have enjoyed this collection as much. For what it is at face value, these comics provide a silly story that is so fun to read as it unfolds. It was really interesting to read new Disney comics drawn and told in an old-timey way. The drawing style and full commitment to the bit really made this an enjoyable read. Still, I might have found myself classifying this closer to 3.5 stars if I wasn't such a big Disney fan. Being that I am added to my experience with this collection, so it was easy for me to round this up to a 4-star read.

Overall, this was so fun to read, and I definitely recommend it to fellow Disney nerds. The concept is fresh and interesting, and the story flowed well while keeping me interested. Reading this on my phone was a bit...unsatisfactory, and I bet this would be a fun one to read a physical copy of, so if you are going to pick up this book, definitely go that route.

Now I just really want to go to Adventureland at Magic Kingdom...

I received a free eBook of this from Netgalley. Thank you to Netgalley, the publisher, and the creators for providing a copy to me.

This was a fun little read. I definitely think that it would have served me better to read it in a physical format and also previous installments (if there are any). It was a little disjointed and chaotic but at the same time weaving (I think) a longer story.

Man, I’m sorry, but this was boring and pointless. The premise is the finding of these “lost” Mickey comics. Some comics are “missing” to give it that “found material” feel. But the actual story itself is bland and repetitive and I could only read a couple panels at a time.

"Mickey's Craziest Adventures" is a graphic novel by Lewis Trondheim with art by Nicolas Keramidas that tells a lost story from the 1960s, or does it?

Presented is a wild adventure story starring Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. We follow them as they chase after the Beagle Boys who have stolen Scrooge McDuck's money bin. The story takes them across different locations and even into space! The pages were long thought lost, so the reader can understand that some of the reproductions are damaged and some pages are missing.

Except this is a clever trick and this is a wholly original new story presented in a very convincing way, but presented as a classic work. This is well executed in art and story. Bravo!

A cute book with some adventure that is not at all Disney. If you're looking for a vintage feel read then this is fun.

Embark on a riotous journey with “Mickey’s Craziest Adventures,” a comedic gem that playfully spoofs Silver Age comics. When Peg Leg Pete and the Beagle Boys shrink Scrooge McDuck’s Money Bin, Mickey and Donald traverse lost cities, ancient lands, and even space in pursuit. Lewis Trondheim and Nicolas Keramidas masterfully blend modern indie-comics style with vintage Disney charm, presenting this uproarious tale as a lost 1965 classic. Delightful for all ages, it’s a clever nod to comic clichés, a testament to the timeless appeal of Disney humor.

Review of Mickey’s Craziest Adventures:
If you loved the Sunday Funnies as a child, Mickey’s Craziest Adventures is the perfect read for those nostalgic feelings to come flying back into your day. As the authors state at the beginning of the book, the series is incomplete, but what they were able to salvage is enough to have you laughing, and if you have kids, a great way to get them into reading.

Even with all the time that has passed, the 1965 context of “Walt Disney’s Mickey and Donald: Mickey’s Craziest Adventures” is still funny. It makes it even more enjoyable to read now, knowing that’s what was funny then. This book could’ve easily been something your parents had read as children, and you are now reading, and your kids can read also.

I had a blast reading this graphic novel. The story starts simple enough, but gets wilder as it moves forward. We see Mickey and Donald find themselves in tons of stunning places that puts them in all kinds of danger. When all hope seems lost, some dear friends help them catch up to a group of bad guys. Fans of Mickey Mouse will definitely want to check this graphic novel out.

Walt Disney's Mickey and Donald: Mickey's Craziest Adventures by Lewis Trondheim was a collection of lost scenes from the old Disney Mickey comics. It was very nostalgic and fun at first, but I was a bit confused reading because I didn't realize going in that the story wasn't complete, so it jumped around a lot, skipping many scenes to get to the next part. It was fine, but I would only recommend if you're a hardcore Disney history fan and won't mind some holes in your story experience.

I got this on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review!

As a lover of the Donald Duck comic books we have in Scandinavia, this felt very flat to me. HOWEVER, it gives the kind of short comic strips in the newspapers kind of vibes, which makes it fun for what it is! I always recommend stuff like this for kids around ages 8-12!

Stellar entertainment. If only all of these comics could be found and returned to their former glory. A must for any Disney fan, amazingly fun and funny, so much sass and character. The adventures of Mickey and Donald are zany well illustrated and vastly enjoyable.

This book was created specifically to tug at your nostalgia - and that's not a bad thing.

I loved the concept. The introduction in the book tells us this is a presumably lost series of one-pagers about Mickey and Donald, complete with wear, tear and missing pages. Don't believe everything you read! In reality this was created intentionally from scratch to mix in the adult jokes and less-than-official Disney art style reminiscent of classic French comics.

It's a marvelous short journey back to a time when Disney comics were everywhere. It reminded me of inhaling entire volumes borrowed from my cousin at full speed, then starting them all over again to experience the stories in a new light. I'm grateful to the authors for creating and sharing this spin-off for us adults who grew up with these stories.

If you're a fan of classic Disney and French comics, give this excellent mash-up a go!

✨ Disclaimer ✨ I received a free copy of this book and this is my honest review.

Madcap adventures that sort of bleed into each other after a while but I loved the conceit that this was a "rediscovered" Carl Barks era Mouse comic. Fun although not something I'll probably return to.

Loved that these comics showed a side of Disney that we rarely see from the Mickey shows today. It was a little confusing at first because the stories jump a little bit but not so much that you can’t follow along. This would be great for a Disney fan’s collection.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Liked it, fun while I was reading it

When Peg Leg Pete and the Beagle Boys shrink and steal Scrooge McDuck’s Money Bin, Mickey and Donald must track them down… across lost cities, ancient lands, under the sea, in the air, and…into space?!? In a hilarious satire that will entertain all ages, Mickey’s Craziest Adventures introduces its epic tale as if it were a rare 1965 Disney classic, deemed too wild for publication and saved only in fragments — but in fact, modern comics masters Lewis Trondheim and Nicolas Keramidas have created an exciting all-new album-length stand-alone Disney thriller, drawn in a kinetic indie-comics style and presented like a classic vintage work, hiding the fact that it's actually shamelessly spoofing Silver Age comics clichés!

Nostalgia, nostalgia, nostalgia, for a time when I wasn't even a glimmer in my parent's eyes yet. This really is for the true Disney fan. It's actually a modern spoof trying to look like a 1965 Disney Classic. Pages are missing, you can see the decay on some of the panels, making it look more believable and super fun! You can follow the story even with the "holes" and I liked that it was for all ages.

Thank you to Fantagraphics Books, NetGalley, and author Lewis Trondheim for providing me with a digital ARC copy of this graphic novel in exchange for an honest review. Walt Disney's Mickey and Donald: Mickey's Craziest Adventures is out February 27, 2024.

This was a collection of recovered comic pages hat instantly made my heart happy. As someone who grew up reading graphic novels and Disney cartoons, the nostalgia hit hard!

I received a complimentary copy of this book via Netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are my own

I loved taking Mickey and his friends' comics out from the school library as a child, and this book brought me right back. It has a comfort that only Mickey can bring.

The story is entertaining and a real throwback to the vintage Disney shorts.

This was super cute but felt a little disjointed. I wish it did not skip some of the chapters as I feel like it would have helped with the overall flow of the story a bit more.

It was fun to see a collection like this! The art was expressive with the varies locations of said adventure, the dialogue felt in character for Mickey and crew. It was just a fun romp. Give this a look if you like all ages adventure comics!

I like how they built this up as a lost comic with missing pages, tears and water damage. The art's great. The story is fun. Good stuff.
