In those pages, Scrooge skips Christmas with his family to seek a golden asteroid. He is then visited by the Ghost of Christmas Past after finding a golden nugget from his Yukon gold-panning days.
The preview ends with Soapy Slick, a classic Scrooge McDuck antagonist, plotting to rob Scrooge of his newfound riches.
The creative team includes artists Paolo Mottura, Fabio Celoni, Marco Mazzarello and Francesco D'Ippolito, writer Louise Jones Simonson, colorist Arianna Consonni and letterer Joe Caramagna.
