Wouldn't bother me. So, two Donald sets are "Treasures" and the other two (may be) "Legacy" sets .. so what ..? It's
having the cartoons, that's the main thing.
------------
I remember well, buying the
Mickey Mouse: The Black and White Years: Volume One Laserdisc set, back in 1992. I
devoured that set, and waited years and years, hoping for the eventual release of
Volume Two ..
.. until the Laserdisc format itself ceased-to-be
, and the LD set was (more or less) re-released as the first volume of
Mickey Mouse in Black & White, in the Walt Disney Treasures .. and even then, it was a couple
more years before I finally saw that
Volume Two I'd hoped for, for so long (along with all the color cartoons, in two separate sets).
--------------------------
Back in the 1980's, Eclipse began a series of book collections of George Herriman's
Krazy Kat Sunday pages, starting in 1916 .. they made it through 9 volumes (through 1925) before going 'belly-up', bringing the series to a premature end (as happens all-too-often with "Complete" comic strip book series collections) ..
.. flash-forward over 15 years later, and Fantagraphics begins publishing book collections of
Krazy Kat Sunday strips .. picking up in 1926, where the Eclipse books left off!
Further, they collect
two years of strips per book, rather than one .. so the series gets published twice as fast;
and the books feature slick presentation by book designer Chris Ware, which don't at all match the rather sparse Eclipse volumes .. but IMO, that's a moot point.
--------------------------
Anyhow, that was my 'rambling' way of saying that some things are
worth waiting for .. even if it takes a
while .. and even if the packaging of the 'continuation' doesn't match up precisely with the 'earlier' volumes on the shelf.
