It's Scrooge McDuck's big 60th anniversary...and as part of the celebration, we're letting the old miser lead off our latest Disney Christmas annual! In Carl Barks' feature-length "Thrifty Spendthrift," a hypnotized Scrooge recreates the famous "Twelve Days of Christmas" song in real life! Then "Mr. Clerkly's Christmas" explores the rocky yuletide relationship between Scrooge and his long-suffering accountant. Of course, Scrooge isn't the only star of 2007. In Pat and Shelly Block's "Cookery Countdown," it's Donald Duck's turn to create an explosive Christmas dinner. And in Stefan Petrucha's "Better To Give Than Deceive," Horace Horsecollar gets an unexpected chance to play Santa. Finally, fan favorite Romano Scarpa wraps things up with an extended-length Mickey and Goofy adventure!
