Walt Disney the Beagle Boys #17

Jul 1973 · Western · 0.20 USD
“The Defective Detectives”

In "The Defective Detectives," the Beagle Boys take a bizarre turn, faking comic books to sabotage Super Goof’s fame and line their pockets—only to stumble into a real-life caper that backfires spectacularly when they attempt to steal from Scrooge McDuck’s money bin using a plot straight out of their own counterfeit pages. Written by Mark Evanier and brought to life with crisp art by Kay Wright, this 1973 Western Comics gem features a clever twist on the usual heist, with lettering by Bill Spicer and a dynamic cover by Pete Alvarado and Larry Mayer.
