Uncle Scrooge #22 - Carl Barks art & cover
Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge #22, 1955 - Uncle Scrooge takes a much needed break in a remote woodsy cabin, only to be piqued by the legend of a river that turns to gold. The catch is, it only works with an unselfish person. The character's penny-pinching tirades and Donald Duck's attempts to solicit a donation seem especially funny this issue. Carl Barks orchestrates his writing and drawings perfectly in this tale, which includes several large panels for variation and effect. The exploding money bin, the plague of frogs, and bubbling waterfall are but a few of the visuals that would bring a chuckle to any reader. Gyro Gearloose creates yet another invention (this time a thought machine) that goes awry. This is 22 of 70 Uncle Scrooge issues with Barks art and/or covers (not including reprints). See today's posts or more Barks, Disney or Uncle Scrooge issues.
