Hall of Fame #[29]
In "Mektig musikk," Donald Duck and Gyro Gearloose take on a high-stakes wager to see who can build wealth fastest from nothing—Donald peddling tiny cassette players, Gyro pushing a massive oven for heating airplane hangars in frigid regions. Set on a globe-trotting race across distant lands, the duo’s wildly different approaches to entrepreneurship lead to unexpected challenges and laughs, all drawn with the unmistakable flair of Carl Barks, whose legendary storytelling and artistry shine in this 2009 Norwegian release. Cover by Carl Barks.
In "Viseforfatteren," Donald, finally seeing his song "Den sorgfulle sjømann" sold, treats his friends to a snow adventure and hotel getaway in Lavinedalen—though a string of avalanches has kept the valley eerily empty.
In "Med to tomme hender; City of Golden Roofs," Donald Duck and Gyro Gearloose embark on a high-stakes bet to see who can rebuild their fortunes from nothing—Donald peddling tiny cassette players, Gyro pushing a massive oven for heating airplane hangars in freezing regions. Their journey takes them halfway around the world, testing their wits, hustle, and the limits of their inventions in a race to prove who truly deserves the title of master entrepreneur.
When Skrue installs a high-tech lock on his money vault—activated only by playing a specific tune on a rare flute—the mysterious Phantom of Notre Duck begins a quiet campaign, stealing the flute from its hidden spot in the cathedral’s wish well. With a blend of clever theft and eerie silence, the Phantom’s latest move sets off a chain of events in the heart of Andeby.
When Donald insists his nephews practice piano, they’d rather swim—so he challenges them to a no-holds-barred swim race, strict rules and all. In this lighthearted 2009 tale from Hall of Fame #29, the real test isn’t just speed, but whether the boys can keep their promises in the water.
In "Strykertrioen," Donald discovers that music has the power to make people cultured and harmonious—so he sets out to remake the trio of misfit young animals, determined to turn their chaotic energy into mastery of the tonal arts.
In this festive tale from Hall of Fame #29, Donald Duck tries to spread holiday cheer in Andeby by forcing the boys to sing Christmas carols—only to face a less-than-enthusiastic reception. When it’s finally neighbor Jensen’s turn to take the stage, the mood in town takes an unexpected turn.
