Sep 1973 · Western · 0.20 USD
“The Phantom Joker”

In "The Phantom Joker," the Junior Woodchucks' International Physical Fitness Games reach their climax with a surprising twist: the coaches must box in the final event. A last-minute mixup with refreshments throws the competition into chaos, leading to an unexpected outcome—though the exact result stays under wraps. Written, drawn, and inked by Carl Barks, this 1973 classic features a clever, lighthearted showdown with the usual Disney charm, and the cover by Kay Wright and Larry Mayer captures the playful tension perfectly.
