Reading this, I'm tended to think that in Barks' "The Phantom of
Notre Duck" (US 60), the phantom looks and acts a bit like Zorro.
Could this mean that Barks's story may have been inspired by this
Zorro episode, or by a comic book adaption of that episode, in case
any exists?
Or could it be the other way around, namely the Zorro's TV episode
having been inspired by Barks's story?
Barks submitted "The Phantom of Notre Duck" on 3 March 1965.
It was first published in Uncle Scrooge #60, November 1965.
What are the details of that Don Diego Zorro TV episode?
