going the masters way it will take a long time the complete both their libraries
You are being optimistic. Let’s be realistic: the “Van Horn Library” within the Disney Masters will never be completed. It would require at least 8 Van Horn books and with at least 2 years between books it will never happen. You are right, Fanta should have published a true Van Hirn Library separate from the Disney Masters. Alternatively, they should have done what I suggested and published a “best of Van Horn” Disney Masters volume instead of publishing his worst, earliest stuff.
In the end, 2 or 3 “best of Van Horn” volumes would have been way better than a pseudo Van Horn Library that is stopped after his earliest stories.
Not sure if this would work in the US but i wish fantagraphics would try a subscription service like hachette in europe like offer a subscription for a van horn or jippes library, maybe offer a volume even quarter for 25 $, give fans a chance to see if it will work
My "most wanted" is a Bill Wright volume (or two); he was the best post-Gottfredson American Mickey artist, and I'd love to see stories like "Ghost of Man-Eater Mountain," "The Phantom Thief," and "The Giant Ants" collected in hard covers.
