Donald Duck & Co #4/1998

When Gladstone Gander’s birthday arrives at Grandma Duck’s farm, it’s supposed to be a joyful celebration—but for him, it’s always the one day of the year when everything goes wrong. As the ducks gather to mark the occasion, even the most ordinary moments seem cursed, and Gladstone’s reputation as Andeby’s unluckiest bird is put to the test once more.

When Mikke Mus accidentally swallows a bit of Professor Statisk’s experimental serum, he slips into a state of apparent death—only to wake up fifty years later, finding his old friends Klaus Knegg, Langbein, and Minni Mus still around, though everything else has changed. The story follows Mikke’s reunion with his long-lost companions, navigating a world that’s moved on without him.

When Donald Duck bids on an old suit of armor at the Andebymessen auction, he doesn’t expect it to be woven from fine golden threads—nor that a centuries-old legend might link the gold to golden sheep said to have roamed a remote island in the North Sea. Now, with Uncle Scrooge’s curiosity piqued and his nephews Ole, Dole, and Doffen eager to uncover the truth, the hunt for the mythical golden flock begins.
