Stories

Ill Met by Moonlight · 16 pages
Suffering from an epic case of tycoon tiredness, friendly tycoon Gotrocks suggests that Scrooge spend some quiet, recuperative time in a tropical hideaway. Scrooge wings his way down to below-the-border land Costa Patata and buys the old mansion of Howard Huge, a reclusive rich-nik who mysteriously disappeared years ago. The mansion was once the former stronghold of the notorious pirate Don Alcazar De Menudo Y Salsa, and contains some uncanny secrets on the other side of a large ornate mirror.
Fortune on the Rocks · 12 pages
To get oil rights from an Indian tribe, Scrooge has to buy a desert mountain. He and the boys climb it to see if there are any valuable minerals and have a series of close calls.
Dropped Them a Line · 0.125 pages
Donald and a nephew follow a line on the ground until it stops in the final panel.
