“The Dye Is Cast”

In "The Dye Is Cast," Donald Duck’s nephews accidentally spill India ink on his prized white tablecloth, leading them to Gyro Gearloose for help. When a mix-up sends a shipment of Gyro’s experimental new dye to Donald instead of his long-awaited bug powder, chaos unfolds as he prepares to spray it on the city reservoir—unaware of the colorful consequences to come. Written and illustrated by Carl Barks, with coloring by Katy Llewellyn and lettering by Garé Barks, this 1995 issue features a cover by Mau Heymans.
