Volume 1 - 1st printing. "Race to Death Valley!" Story and art by Floyd Gottfredson. Today everyone knows Mickey Mouse as Disney's cheerful ambassador. But back in the 1930s, Mickey gained fame as a rough-and-tumble, two-fisted epic hero!

The premiere volume, Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse Vol. 1: "Race to Death Valley" features a dozen different adventures starring Mickey, his gal Minnie and her uncle Mortimer (not to be confused with Mickey's rival in the animates shorts!), his pals Horace Horsecollar and Butch, the villainous Pegleg Pete, and the mysterious and shrouded Fox.
