Walt Disney's Donald Duck #5

Apr 1988 · Egmont UK · 60p
“Battle Of The Echoes”

In "Battle Of The Echoes," Donald and Gladstone team up—well, sort of—when they learn Uncle Scrooge is hunting for land with a rare echo, leading them to buy parcels of Mocking Bird Ridge in hopes of a quick profit. Written, drawn, and inked by the legendary Carl Barks, this 1988 Egmont UK gem captures the classic charm of the Duck universe with a playful, high-stakes twist on family rivalry and greed. The cover, also by Barks, perfectly captures the mischievous energy of the tale.
