Rockerduck and the Zeppeline (Rockerduck e la Diriginilinea in the original version) is a story written by Alessandro Sisti and drawn by the Comicup studio.

Description[]

Jubal Pomp, the aspiring-billionaire of Duckburg, hears Scrooge McDuck and John D. Rockerduck once more quarrelling, this time about each one's new airline. Shortly after, a strange man offers him to buy his airline, including the aircrafts, a shed and a pilot. Without even asking to see the shed and the aircrafts, Jubal makes the deal and pays. He then discovers with dismay that the "aircrafts" are old dirigibles. But, on second thought… In times where people are very sensitive to ecology, why not try to fix the old balloons and reinstate the airline as an ecological way to travel ? He immediately applies this method, and it is a small but existing success. Rockerduck, jealous as usual, tries to take over the airline from Pomp. But is it a really good idea ?
