Walt Disney's Donald Duck #258
In "Donald Duck and 'The Pixilated Parrot'," Carl Barks delivers another delightfully absurd adventure as Donald gifts Uncle Scrooge a peculiar parrot that counts instead of talks—only for Scrooge to trust it with the safe’s combination, a habit he’s long struggled with. When the bird accidentally reveals the code to two crooked burglars and then takes flight toward a ship bound for Latin America, Scrooge’s fortune—and his patience—face a wild new challenge. The story’s sharp wit and inventive chaos are brought to life by Barks’ signature art, with Tony Strobl’s cover capturing the parrot’s mischievous escape in vibrant detail.
