Here Commander Woo-Woo, leader of a faceless alien army, demands Mickey and Eega help her battle the deadly Aints! But what if our heroes refuse? Well, the 'good guys' on Be-Junior can get kind of deadly, too... Floyd Gottfredson and co-writer Bill Walsh created amazing Disney sci-fi epics -- and political thrillers! -- in the years after World War II.

Restored from Disney's original proof sheets, Planet of Faceless Foes also includes more than 20 pages of otherworldly extras! You'll enjoy behind-the-scenes art, rare publicity material, and cosmic commentary by hi-tech Disney historians! Walt Disney often said that his studio's success 'all started with a Mouse' -- and today Mickey is among the world's most recognizable icons.
