Gladstone and Disraeli is a comic story written by Lars Jensen and drawn by Francisco Rodriguez Peinado. It features Gladstone Gander, Daisy Duck, Donald Duck and Bolivar. Gladstone's mother is seen in flashbacks (although her head is kept off-panel) and Shamrock Bones is mentioned, at least in the American printing. Most importantly, Disraeli Duck makes his debut.
Description[]
Gladstone Gander's attention-seeking cousin Disraeli Duck is visiting Duckburg for the first time in year, and Gladstone can't seem to convince Donald and Daisy of the manipulative ways hiding beneath his sympathetic, pity-inspiring airs!
References[]
- Gladstone Gander and Disraeli Duck already knew (and disliked) each other as children, with Disraeli once coming to stay with Gladstone's family for a short while.
