Dive into thrilling Disney adventures and enjoy fan-favorite comics talents with a new Disney Masters slipcase set featuring Vol. 23: Mickey Mouse: The Riddle of Brigaboom by Romano Scarpa and Vol. 24: Uncle Scrooge: World Wide Witch by Daniel Branca!

First: in “The Riddle of Brigaboom,” Mickey’s friends and enemies are hypnotized by Dr. Wrayspray’s “Spraysan,” a bewitching body spray that makes everyone feel stronger and smarter! But Mickey smells a rat—and the trail leads to Pegleg Pete and Brigaboom, a mysterious island that only appears once every five years! Also in this volume: Donald Duck battles an army of evil toys in “Remotely Impossible” and his own unhinged cousin in “The Unsinkable Kildare Coot!”

Next: in “World Wide Witch,” the year is 2000 and that saucy sorceress, Magica De Spell, is turning early social media to her advantage—arranging a full-scale sorceresses’ convention at Scrooge McDuck’s money bin! Then Scrooge travels through time to beat Flintheart Glomgold in “The Quest for the Curious Constable”… and Huey, Dewey, and Louie face dangerous duck-eating plants in “The Green Attack”!

Fantagraphics’ Disney Masters series unearths a treasure trove of previously unavailable comics epics in the grand Walt Disney tradition: expanding the lore of Mickey, Donald, and Scrooge, anthologizing the work of fan-favorite North American talents, and bringing you the best of the acclaimed international artists who have popularized Disney around the world.

From Minnie to Horace to Mortimer Mouse, Mickey’s friends and fiends are bewitched by Dr. Wrayspray and his amazing health tonic. But Mickey smells a rat — and the trail leads to Wrayspray’s headquarters on Brigaboom, an amazing island that only appears once every five years… where Peg Leg Pete is cooking up a diabolical new racket! Next, it’s Donald in deep duck trouble when he’s forced to battle an army of AI-controlled evil toys in “Remotely Impossible” — and his own unhinged cousin in “The Unsinkable Kildare Coot!” Finally, Goofy’s royal love interest returns in “The Famed Jumping Frog of Queen Zenobia”… with a criminal plot hot on her tail!
