"Take It Down A Notch, Goofy!" Mickey Mouse Shorts: Season One Is A Hoot

A few years ago, a die-hard Disney fan sat down to watch a new animated short. The subject matter was the ever so lovable Mickey Mouse, and the style to the cartoon was different from what you'd normally see. As a matter of fact, the content was too. There was something more goofy, and light-hearted to the script. When I discovered that IDW was taking on the task of bringing these fun shorts to the page, I was thrilled. This week brought the release of the first issue entitled, Mickey Mouse Shorts: Season One #1. So, each story is based on the Disney TV Animation series by Paul Rudish, the layouts are done by John Green, and the dialogue adaptation is from Scott Tipton. 

What's cool about this is, even though it's the same content for the most part, it's bringing another all-ages title to the publisher that will encourage young readers, and hardcore Disney fans to pick up a comic and support the industry. As I flipped through the pages, I found myself laughing out loud, just as I did when I would watch the shorts. Comedy is very much at the forefront of these tales. You'll recognize many of your favorite classic Disney characters amongst the stories, including Goofy who plays a big part. In the first issue alone there are five stories featured, and they are sure to bring a smile to your face. I do wonder if this will lead to original Mickey Mouse shorts from the publisher eventually. I guess we'll have to wait and see. Mickey Mouse Shorts: Season One #1 is in stores now.
