Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Call Of C'Rrusso is a foreign 2004 Donald Duck story notable primarily for parodying the Cthulhu Mythos while playing the cynical trends of the genre shockingly straight for a comic aimed at kids.It was created in English, by writers Mark and Laura Shaw, for the pan-European publisher Egmont, but never appeared in an authorized English edition until IDW Publishing picked it up for August 2016's American issue of Donald Duck.

Cosmic Horror Story: Donald tries out for a singing competition organized by a renowned musician, and gets successfully recruited by having his voice altered by an apparent twin of this musician. It's later revealed that the entire world is actually the dream of Pf'legmwad, a primordial cephalophoid monster which slumbers in the ancient city of Sp'too at the bottom of the sea. The two twins are manifestations of the monster's conflicting subconscious desires to either continue sleeping or wake up (which Donald's voice will make it do). When the creature does exactly that, the rest of the world vanishes as it no longer creates the world-dream, and everything in its vicinity shapes itself into its image, resulting in Donald and his nephews growing tentacles and stick eyes. It's eventually put back to sleep, but the story ends on a rather dark note as Donald contemplates everybody's existence as mere parts of the creature's imagination.

Bad is Good and Good is Bad: The eldritch being finds beautiful singing irritating and will be roused by it while horrible singing like Donald's usual voice lulls it back to sleep. This same sentiment is shared with the whole world, which the Ducks find beautiful but to it is abhorrent enough for it to want to wake up completely and dream up something new.

Cosmic Horror Reveal: Donald Duck wins in a singing contest before it's revealed that he's actually been recruited to wake up an Eldritch Abomination with his voice. The world disappears because it only exists when the monster is dreaming about it, and Donald and his nephews grow octopoid arms and legs as reality is reshaped in its image.
