DC-CartoonTales

Disney's Cartoon Tales was a series of trade paperbacks published by Disney Comics in the later half of its run, beginning shortly following the Disney Comics implosion in late 1991. Each installment contained reprints of select comic book stories that Disney had published before, usually stories from the company's now-cancelled series or from Disney Adventures. The comic adaptations of The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin, previously published as their own graphic novels, were also reprinted in this series, which ended right when Disney Comics went defunct in May 1993.
