| 1 | * BigLippedAlligatorMoment: In ''The Cloud Machine'', while in Sweden, [=DoubleDuck=] comes across some Viking enactors (or possibly ''actual'' Vikings), who, after a brief misunderstanding due to the language barrier (they speak in rudimentary Old Norse words that are not translated even to the reader), proceed to shoot Donald out of a giant catapult. While the catapult shot does end up helping Donald in getting inside an enemy base, the Vikings don't appear again and aren't even mentioned by any of the characters — so who they were, what they were doing with the catapult or why they wanted to shoot Donald out of it all remain a total mystery. |
| 2 | * FanPreferredCouple: [[AdventureDuo Donald Duck and Kay K]]. Some would argue Kay is a better trade-in than Daisy. |
| 3 | * HilariousInHindsight: In the 2005 story "Bugged Duck", Donald pretends to be a spy to mess with Huey, Dewey, and Louie, and gets in trouble when a real secret agency believe he's a terrorist. And the story was included with the last Double Duck story published by [[Creator/KaboomComics Boom! Kids]]. |
| 4 | * OlderThanTheyThink: Donald is part of a mysterious intelligence agency fighting dangerous criminals working for unspecified hostile foreign powers, and his partner is a mysterious and more experienced female spy. Are we talking about ''Double Duck''? No: this is the plot of "Moldfinger or The Spy Who Ducked-Out On Me", the first of the PIA (Private Intelligence Agency) stories, [[AffectionateParody affectionate parodies]] of Franchise/JamesBond (at first) where Donald works to protect Scrooge's economic empire from various threats and is partnered with Daisy (yes, she's a more experienced spy than Donald). While the stories eventually became {{Flanderized}} and Daisy's appearances became more sporadic, the stories still exist and are even referenced in the PKNA crossover. |
| 5 | * UnexpectedCharacter: [[spoiler:John Rockerduck]] assumes an important role starting from the end of "Reboot", even if the identity of [[spoiler:the mystery backer that had taken over funding the Agency]] would not be revealed until the following storyline. |
| 6 | * WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: As usual for Italian comics due to ValuesDissonance. For example (as typical of Italian Disney stories), you get realistic guns everywhere... including in Donald's hands. And this time it's not a shotgun with salt shells... |
