☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Donald Duck and the Mummy's Ring," Carl Barks spins a classic adventure as Donald and his nephews are whisked away to the forgotten city of Itsa Faka, where ancient, preserved inhabitants await revival. With the king’s daughter now demanding a marriage to the man she believes to be her long-lost prince—Donald—tensions rise in this desert mystery, all drawn and lettered by Barks in his unmistakable style. The cover by Carl Barks captures the story’s exotic intrigue, a 50-cent comic from 1973 brimming with timeless charm.
When Huey is mysteriously spirited away in a mummy case bound for Egypt, Donald and his nephews Dewey and Louie spring into action—taking jobs on the same ship carrying the case and then commandeering a felucca to follow the trail up the Nile. As they navigate the desert heat and ancient ruins, they find themselves entangled in the Bey of El Dagga’s ambitious revival of long-lost traditions, all while dodging emissaries, guards, and a down-and-out-thief with his own agenda.
When Donald Duck finally snaps at Gladstone Gander’s endless streak of luck, he sends him off to Alaska chasing a mythical uranium mine—only to regret it when the trail leads to a frozen wasteland. With the nephews in tow, Donald tracks Gladstone to a remote iceberg hiding a long-lost Viking ship, gleaming with gold trim and brimming with mystery.
In "Donald Duck in Ancient Persia," Donald and his nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie find themselves whisked away to the forgotten ruins of Itsa Faka, where ancient inhabitants lie preserved in dust. When the scientist revives the royal court, Donald is mistaken for a long-lost prince who once rejected the king’s daughter, thrusting him into a wedding ceremony he never asked for.
When Donald gifts Scrooge a parrot that only counts instead of speaking, Scrooge sees a chance to solve his ever-worsening memory lapses—especially when the bird starts reciting the safe’s combination. But the moment the parrot learns the code, it flies off, first handing it to a pair of unsuspecting burglars, then vanishing toward a boat bound for Latin America.
