If This Be Bongsday!
Okay, this issue introduces new Howard writer
Bill Mantlo. Bill Mantlo is personally responsible for introducing
many of the concepts utilzed in the movie (i.e. Duckworld).
It is also noted that even when the Howard
comic is cancelled (anytime now), Mr. Mantlo will go on
to write for the Howard magazine which follows.
Prior to Mr. Mantlo, Steve Gerber always utilized
the Character of Howard as a sort of Commentary on Human
Society, While Mr. Mantlo saw "Duckworld" as the
exact duplicate as earth except populated by Ducks.
Also in this issue Al Milgrom, inks over Gene
Colan pencils. In my opinion Mr. Milgrom is the worst inker
in comic history. This gentlemen has ruined some of the
greatest artwork in comics, and to have him work in anyway
with Mr. Colan is a shame.
This is it the final show down with Dr. Bong
and Iron Duck (what a lame idea, thanks Bill).
It is also noted that Bill Mantlo is the creator of Rocket Racoon.
