In "The Success Test," Mickey and Goofy face a tough assignment when mysterious railroad car disappearances land them in hot water with Mr. Boomer, who forces them to search the tracks on foot. While they're busy investigating, the Clinker Brothers take over the engine—unaware they're being used by the cunning Gruggers, who's behind the thefts all along. Written by Carl Fallberg and brought to life with energetic art by Paul Murry, this 1986 adventure blends classic Disney charm with a clever twist. The cover, by Daan Jippes, captures the moment with playful precision.

Uncle ScroogeDonald DuckDuckburg Symphony Orchestra

Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck both have their hearts set on attending the Duckburg Symphony Orchestra's concert, each devising their own clever (and hilariously flawed) plan to sneak in. While Donald's scheme has a few surprises, Scrooge’s attempt proves far less discreet—much to the orchestra’s quiet dismay.
