Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #2 (146)
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Omelet," Carl Barks delivers a delightfully chaotic tale as Donald Duck’s ambitious plan to raise chickens in Pleasant Valley spirals into a series of misadventures too big for one duck to handle. With Barks' signature blend of slapstick humor and meticulous storytelling, the story unfolds through his own writing, art, inks, and lettering—every detail a testament to his mastery. The cover, also by Barks, captures the comedic frenzy with his distinctive style.
When Donald Duck tries to run a chicken farm on the heights above Pleasant Valley, chaos ensues—between his ill-fated fowl, the mischievous nephews, and Daisy Duck’s attempts to keep things under control. What starts as a simple plan to raise chickens spirals into a series of escalating mishaps that leave the entire town reeling.
Donald Duck finds himself in a sticky situation when his bag accidentally knocks into another passenger on the train—only to have the man walk off with it after Donald refuses to admit it was his, fearing the embarrassment. With the bag gone and no clear way to prove ownership, Donald’s quiet moment on the rails turns into a tangled mix of pride and panic.
