Donald Duck Drawn into Teatro alla Scala's Season Opener

"Topolino" (literally: "mousie") is not only the Italian name of that ubiquitous Disney character "Mickey Mouse", but it's also the Italian name of a Disney comic book that contains the adventures of Mickey, Donald ("Paperino"), Goofy ("Pippo") along with the rest of Walt's zoo.

Coming soon to an Italian newsstand near you (or not), the December 3rd issue of "Topolino" will feature a story where Donald Duck goes to la Scala's opening night (see cover above).

The outline? Donald Duck's doppelganger "DoubleDuck", a sort of ducky James Bond, goes -- all dressed up in black tie -- to the opening night to protect the conductor "Felino Felynis" from a possible spectacular kidnapping during the opera "Carlone e Beppina".

omg indoctrination! We already downloaded a leaked copy of it. DoubleDuck gets wasted on a hidden flask of Jager during the first intermission, passes out in the coatroom, and gets locked in the theater overnight. And Rosebud is the freaking sled.

I could picture 2xDuck riding on Rosebud... coming down from the long staircase of the theatre side entrance... escaping from the villainous loggionisti...(and found out La Scala was actually named after that staircase)
