☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume of the Disney Masters series collects classic Mickey Mouse newspaper strips by an acclaimed European cartoonist, featuring the epic adventure 'The River of Time' as well as additional short stories. Known for his dynamic, expressive artwork and imaginative storytelling, the creator brings a distinctive European sensibility to Walt Disney's iconic characters. The collection showcases a lesser-known but highly regarded era of Mickey Mouse comics, originally serialized in the 1950s and 1960s.
In "The River of Time Part One," Peg-Leg Pete returns to Mickey Mouse's life with a surprising twist: the long-lost wreck of the Steamboat Willie has been found beneath the river's treacherous Devil's Bend. With Pete pushing the idea of a salvage claim and Mickey—ever the reluctant partner—agreeing to help, the two former crewmates embark on a journey into their shared past. Written by Francesco Artibani, Tito Faraci, and Dwight Decker, and brought to life by Corrado Mastantuono’s dynamic art and coloring from Disney Italia, this story rekindles a forgotten chapter in their history. The cover, also by Mastantuono, captures the mood of mystery and nostalgia.
In "The River of Time Part One," Peg-Leg Pete shows up unannounced at Mickey's door with a surprising twist: the long-lost Steamboat Willie, the vessel where their paths first crossed, has been found deep in the river's Devil's Bend. With Pete pushing for a salvage claim and Mickey—despite their history—agreeing to help, the unlikely duo sets off on a journey to reclaim a piece of their shared past, one that’s as tangled as the river’s currents.
In "The River of Time Part Two," Mickey and Pete finally pull the sunken Steamboat Willie from the depths of the river’s Devil’s Bend, uncovering long-buried secrets and a mystery that’s haunted the waterway for years. But as the wreckage surfaces, Pete’s true intentions come to light—leaving Mickey to wonder just how much of the past was ever really lost.
