Volume 1 - 1st printing. "The Great Technowhiz!"
Story and art by Freddy Milton.
In this collection of classic short comics, Nuft the Dragon and his outgoing family are outcasts in a world hostile to dragonkind.
Sometimes poignant and sometimes slapstick, in this collection of Danish comics stories, Nuft and his family are pitted against prejudice, scheming slumlords and all-seeing robot overlords! This debut volume collects the stories "The Nufts Move In," in which the dragon family trades its rural ways for a new life in the big city - but the tenement they move into is not only falling apart, it's plagued by poltergeists!
In "Trouble on George Street," Nuft gets a job at City Hall but quickly discovers that the whole thing is teetering on the verge of collapse! And in "The Great Technowhiz," the Technowhiz watches over all the city's functions - but who watches over the Technowhiz?
Plus a special collector's bonus - Freddy Milton's very first 8-page Nuft tale. With personal commentary and insight by Freddy Milton.
Softcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 168 pages, full color.

Volume 2 - 1st printing. "By Balloon to the North Pole!"
Story and art by Freddy Milton.
Epic comics adventures quick-cooked in dragon fire: the Nufts are back! This time Nuft and Nicky take to the skies - and battle a mad graffiti artist - or do they?
For a clan of fire-breathing dragons, Nuft, Nicky, and Nellie fear that their family is sadly ordinary - until the discovery of Cousin Nilbert and his 1907 balloon trip: little-known but record-setting if true. Nuft and Nicky must recreate the voyage to prove it's possible... but they face deadly weather and a high-flying saboteur! The Nufts' creator, Danish cartoonist Freddy Milton, is best-known for decades of beloved Donald Duck and Uncle Scrooge comics adventures. Now you can soar skyward to meet Milton's self-created, sizzling hot stars! And "By Balloon to the North Pole" is just the start!
In "Animal Graffiti," Councilman Siegel forces Nuft to hunt down a mad street artist named Orva - never guessing it's Nuft himself in disguise!
Then, "Nicky's Centennial" doesn't seem like a big deal - dragons are still kids at just 100 years old! - but Nuft's "better self" convinces him to fund the birthday party by taking up a life of crime!
Softcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 152 pages, full color.
