In the summer of 2024, Marvel published a blockbuster one‑shot event titled Uncle Scrooge and the Infinity Dime. Written by longtime Uncle Scrooge fan Jason Aaron, the issue marked Scrooge McDuck’s first-ever Marvel sized action adventure. The comic became a standout success and ended up being one of my favorite pieces of media from that summer. Jason followed Uncle Scrooge and the Infinity Dime with a four issue mini series Uncle Scrooge: Earth’s Mightiest Duck. You can click on any of the links below to read my review of each individual issue.
This month (April 2026), Marvel is releasing all four issues in a beautifully assembled trade paperback—an edition that Uncle Scrooge fans will be thrilled to add to their shelves.
I love stopping by my local comic shop each month to pick up and read every new issue as it hits the shelves, but the collector in me always longs for the eventual collected edition to display once a series wraps. Uncle Scrooge: Earth’s Mightiest Duck delivers exactly that: a 112‑page trade paperback gathering all four issues of the run. It also features a gorgeous cover gallery showcasing work from Gabriele Dell’Otto, Mark Brooks, J. Gonzo, Chrissie Zullo, David López, Paco Medina, Francesco Mobili, ACO, Dave Bardin, Stephanie Hans, and Russell Dauterman. All the behind‑the‑scenes concept art and sketches originally printed in the single issues are included here as well, making this edition a true treat for fans and collectors alike.
The collection is also available as a digital edition. There is no hardcover option for this collected edition release. The trade paperback currently retails for $15.99, while the digital version is priced at $11.99. It’s a handsome volume that will look right at home on any shelf alongside your other Marvel and Disney comics. Below is a look at the book’s spine.
Uncle Scrooge: Earth’s Mightiest Duck marks the third major collaboration between Marvel and Disney in recent years. The project follows Uncle Scrooge and the Infinity Dime, which kicked off this crossover era, and the wonderfully imaginative Marvel & Disney: What If…? series—a seven‑issue run that reimagined classic Mickey and Friends characters in the roles of beloved Marvel heroes. Both earlier titles received collected editions: Uncle Scrooge and the Infinity Dime arrived as a deluxe oversized hardcover, while Marvel & Disney: What If…? was released as a standard‑sized trade paperback matching the format of the new Earth’s Mightiest Duck collection.
Lined up together, the spines of all three volumes make for a striking display. The collection is shaping up beautifully.
I love the deluxe hardcover edition of Uncle Scrooge and the Infinity Dime, but I do wish that one‑shot had been included as a bonus in the Uncle Scrooge: Earth’s Mightiest Duck collection. It would have been great to have all of Marvel’s Uncle Scrooge stories gathered together in a single trade‑paperback format.
The Uncle Scrooge: Earth’s Mightiest Duck trade paperback can be picked up at your local comic book store or at online book retailers.

Even if you already own the single issues, this collected edition is absolutely worth adding to your library. Bringing all four chapters together in a well‑crafted trade paperback, it offers the convenience of a single volume while showcasing the complete Uncle Scrooge: Earth’s Mightiest Duck cover gallery—a feature longtime fans will especially enjoy. Having everything gathered in one place not only elevates the reading experience but also makes for a striking display piece alongside the rest of your Marvel and Disney collection.
A big thanks to our marvelous friends at Marvel for sending over this book for the review.
