Relive Mickey’s race to a gold mine with Pegleg Pete hot on his heels; Mickey’s life on the lam; and Mickey’s ringside battle with a hulking heavyweight champ! In Vol. 2: Trapped on Treasure Island, Mickey fights with pirates on desolate Treasure Island; quests with Goofy to catch ruthless counterfeiters; and battles to save windy Horace Horsecollar from mad scientists, a robbery frame-up ― and himself!
