About this Collection

This volume from Fantagraphics' Disney Masters series collects classic Donald Duck stories by an acclaimed international creator, including the title adventure '20,000 Leaks Under the Sea' and other short works. The collection showcases the character's signature blend of humor and adventure, with Donald and his nephews navigating underwater chaos and other misadventures. It is the 20th entry in the series, which highlights lesser-known but highly regarded Disney comics artists from around the world.

In "It's Only Money," Donald Duck finds himself at the center of a misunderstanding when a client of Fethry's Lonely Hearts Club arrives at his home, posing as his new housekeeper—much to Fethry’s delight, as he’s been paid to make the match. Written by Dick Kinney and brought to life with warm, expressive art by Al Hubbard and inks by Hubbard himself, this 2022 Disney Masters installment delivers classic humor with a charmingly awkward twist. The cover, by René Guillaume, captures the moment with a perfectly timed smirk.
