“The Doom Diamond”

In "The Doom Diamond," Carl Barks delivers another masterful adventure as Scrooge McDuck races to secure the world’s largest diamond in Southern Miserystan, hauling $10 million in gold aboard a pirate-proof ship. When the Beagle Boys strike, Scrooge outwits them—only for misfortune to follow, shifting from him to the thieves once the gem is stolen. With his signature blend of wit, suspense, and visual storytelling, Carl Barks crafts a tale where greed and fate collide, all rendered in his unmistakable style—pencils, inks, and colors by the legendary hand behind the story.
