There's a couple of installments of 'Steet Peeple', written by editor Lynn Graeme, detailing her experiences in the 1960's.  While interesting in it's own right, Howard the Duck is simply not the place for this, and would have been better served appearing in the pages of Marvel's The Nam, for instance.  We get two 'catch up' sort of articles as if those reading the magazine aren't already familiar with Howards past. This is the only volume in the set that contains a parental advisory not for kids notice on the cover, likely due to the Playduck material, Howards version of the Kent State massacre, a mental patient who thinks he's Hitler, and Beverly wearing skimpy or torn clothing.     All said and done though, still a lot of fun and worth a read.  Curious if a volume 4 is planned as there are still two more issues of the black and white magazine, issues #32 and #33 which return to the color comic format, the movie adaptation, and assorted other material. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The magazine issues *by R***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2021* Not as good as the first 2 volumes but still nice ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Completists Rejoice Viva La Howard! *by T***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2016* after years of being unavailable except on the second hand market the black and white magazine format stories of Howard the Duck are finally being reprinted in this collection. If you like the character now you can get all his appearances in reprint form- between the Essentials version- the omnibi and this series. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/33499577-howard-the-duck-the-complete-collection-vol-3](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/33499577-howard-the-duck-the-complete-collection-vol-3) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-27*
