Disney Comics Album #1
In "The Think Box Bollix," Donald Duck and his ragtag crew of nephews take on the annual Fishermen's Gold Cup aboard the notoriously unseaworthy schooner Daffy-O, all to prove themselves for Uncle Scrooge. With the odds stacked against them and a mysterious "secret device" from Scrooge as their only advantage—its true purpose still a mystery—Donald must navigate the treacherous waters and the fierce competition. Written and illustrated by Carl Barks, with lettering by Garé Barks, this classic tale features a delightfully chaotic adventure anchored by Barks’ signature humor and storytelling flair. The cover, by Daan Jippes, captures the spirited chaos of the race in bold, expressive lines.

Aboard the good schooner Daffy-O, unseaworthy Donald, with the boys and a "lubber crew", must win the Fishermen's Gold Cup for Uncle Scrooge at the annual cod fishing competition... or else. While disadvantaged in almost every way, Scrooge has provided Donald with a "secret device" to compensate - the nature of which is unknown to Donald and his crew.
