☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Micro-Ducks From Outer Space," Carl Barks reflects on a long-lost idea for a Space Family Robinson story, drawing parallels between his imaginative tales and the classic TV series Lost in Space. With Barks' signature whimsy and intricate detail, this issue offers a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse into the mind of one of Disney comics' most legendary creators.
When a billion-dollar prize is offered by the Skeptics Club for proof of alien life, Uncle Scrooge sees his chance—especially after a tiny flying saucer drifts into his window. The saucer’s occupants, the Micro-Ducks, agree to help him win the prize after he sells them a few grains of wheat and corn. With their help, Scrooge sets out to prove the impossible, all while Donald and the nephews try to keep up with the growing chaos.
In "The Heedless Horseman," Uncle Scrooge enters the Crystal Orb Derby with a bold ambition: to claim the title of Duckburg's "king" for the year. He bets everything on Fireball, a champion horse he’s just purchased—unaware that Fireball is actually a high-tech robot, and every horse in the race is a machine in disguise. While the excitement builds at the track, the Beagle Boys have their own plans, eyeing Scrooge’s Money Bin as the perfect target during the chaos.
