The Complete Carl Barks Disney Library #29
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Northeaster on Cape Quack," Scrooge McDuck and his rival, Gyro Gearloose's friend Rockerduck, go head-to-head in the Yellowrado River Water Derby, each betting their respective brands of marine gasoline. With Scrooge boasting that his fuel is so potent he could toss a pebble over his shoulder and hire the man it hits to drive his boat, things take a famously chaotic turn when that very pebble lands squarely on Donald Duck. Written, drawn, inked, and lettered by Carl Barks, with colors by Gary Leach and a cover by Barks himself, this classic tale from the Carl Barks Disney Library series is a masterclass in comedic timing and high-seas shenanigans.
When Donald takes Huey, Dewey, and Louie to Cape Quack, he’s proud to show them the lighthouse still has a purpose—until the lighthouse keeper warns of an approaching storm. With the storm raging and McSwine sneaking in with a plan to sabotage the beacon, the boys must help the keeper keep the light burning and Duckburg safe.
When Scrooge McDuck enters the Yellowrado River Water Derby with his latest marine gasoline, he’s confident his fuel is unbeatable—so much so that he boasts it could launch a pebble over his shoulder and hire the man it hits to drive. But when that pebble lands squarely on Donald Duck, the chaos begins, especially with the arrival of a new rival: John D. Rockerduck, who’s just as eager to prove his own fuel’s superiority. Huey, Dewey, and Louie are on hand to witness the mayhem, and with Scrooge’s overconfidence and Rockerduck’s competitive edge, things quickly spiral into a splashy, high-octane race.
