Donald Duck / Four Color v2 #282 - Carl Barks art & cover

Carl Barks

(Walt Disney's) Donald Duck v2 / Four Color v2 #282, 1950 - Hanging around the dockyards, Huey, Louie and Dewey buy a parrot that counts obsessively. The story soon takes them to South America, where Carl Barks takes the opportunity to illustrate the exotic. There's plenty of amusing sight gags, especially the sequences where the parrot escapes. Details abound on several panels, including Uncle Scrooge in his money bin (page 4 panel 5) and the long view of a merchant ship (page 14 panel 7). Barks also does a credible job on the cover, considered a classic by many. This story was later reprinted in Donald Duck v2 #229 and Walt Disney Comics Digest #44.
