And it's "Currently Unavailable". Guess they decided to focus more on their Disney Afternoon anthologies. The first one with Darkwing Duck and A Goofy Movie was a good collection.
? I think it's fairly common for Amazon items with a yet-to-be determined release date to be listed as "currently unavailable".
You can find it in the coming soon section in the store on the Fantagraphics website. It’s got a tentative sale date of May 16th, 2023.
"As part of the same deal with Disney that resulted in a new series of Gargoyles comics, Dynamite today announced the return of Darkwing Duck to comics coming shortly, with new series, graphic novels, and reprints. The series is coming back to the comics page, with a new title launching for the first time since 2015. The series wills tar the heroic Drake Mallard coming at the beginning of 2023. In addition to all-new original tales, his classic adventures will be reprinted as well in facsimile editions and graphic novels. The hard-to-find 1991 limited series released by Disney Comics with contributions by John Blair Moore and others will soon be accessible again to fans and collectors of classic Disney comics.
There are few details available yet about the new series. More information on release timing, creators involved, and more Disney properties from Dynamite will be announced soon."
Hopefully, the last line means the return of some classic line of comics.

I'd be really happy about this if Sparrow & Silvani were able to continue with all the ideas they had that they couldn't get to during the Joe Books run.... And even if they're not involved, I'll give the new series a try!
The listings of Fantagraphics' Fall 2023 books have appeared on Amazon around a week ago but still no Disney books among them....
Still no Disney book… Sometimes new listings of the next season’s Fantagraphics books get added to Amazon in two batches but never before were the second batch of listings added more than a couple of days after the first one. Could it be possible that Fantagraphics will completely stop publishing Disney books after this summer?

That's a rather extreme thing to assume.
All I am saying is that what one can observe now re: Amazon has never happened before.

Disney books have to be approved by Disney, unlike Fantagraphics other fare. From what I’ve heard, this approval process can be rather slow at times.
Hopefully they finally release the still missing box sets of the Masters books! They are years behind! So I would be totally okay if there are no new books until the box sets are up to date!
