So that brings me to my next question. Would the proper defense here have been to lightning bolt the plainswalker in response to it resolving? To prevent any ability usage?
Willbreaker triggers and resolves first, before the spell that triggered it, so you gain control of the creature for as long as you control Willbreaker; then Disperse resolves, returning that creature to its owner's hand (the creature is still the same object being targeted by Disperse and it's still a legal target).
So the creature would then go into the hand of the player who owned Willbreaker?
Not unless that player also owns the creature. Ownership of a card doesn't change during a game, even if control might. Whoever started with the card in their deck owns the card.
Okay got it. So basically disperse would be pointless to try to gain control with Willbreaker.

Also can you cast multiple insult // injury and get them to stack?
can you in response lightning bolt royal assassin preventing the tap ability?

If I have Skyscribing can I keep using the same card to make everyone draw cards during my upkeep every turn?
Also would I have access to my mana pool at that point? To cast a second Artful Manuver in response?
