☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects classic Disney comics stories featuring Uncle Scrooge McDuck, centered on the titular adventure 'Operation Galleon Grab' by writer-artist Daan Jippes. Part of Fantagraphics' Disney Masters series, it showcases Jippes' detailed artwork and storytelling as Scrooge hunts for sunken treasure while contending with the Beagle Boys and other rivals. The collection also includes additional short stories from the same creator, offering a focused look at his work with the Disney ducks.
"Operation Galleon Grab Part One" kicks off a swashbuckling treasure hunt when Scrooge receives a birthday gift that’s more than it seems: a model galleon hiding a cryptic parchment pointing to a sunken fortune near the Leeward Islands. With the Ducks on the move and the Beagle Boys in stealthy pursuit, the trail leads to a surprising encounter on the high seas—where Scrooge’s rival, John D. Rockerduck, reveals he’s also tracking the same lost gold, complete with his own matching model. Giorgio Cavazzano’s dynamic artwork and vivid colors bring the adventure to life, while the cover by Cavazzano captures the intrigue in bold, stylish detail.

The boys gift Scrooge a model of an old Spanish treasure galleon for his birthday. In a secret compartment of the model, they find a tattered parchment telling of a sunken galleon of gold somewhere in the vicinity of the Leeward Islands. The Ducks are off, surreptitiously followed by the disguised Beagle Boys. Once there, Scrooge buys a cheap used boat and the treasure hunt begins. Not far out to sea our heroes come across the stylish yacht of John D. Rockerduck. The suspicious nephews sneak aboard the yacht to find that Rockerduck has an identical Spanish galleon model in his possession.
