The topic of Flight (as in escaping
from trouble) is a recurring subject in most of Walt Disney's
animated cartoons and comic book stories and Carl Barks' stories
from the duck universe are no exceptions. Even though Barks in
general made more 'adult' work containing greater and more
complicated stories, better and more reflective plots, and
coherent and more pensive dialogue, he wrote and drew characters
fleeing many times.
The sub-pages present some of Barks' flight stories - but only
the ones in which fleeing is a major factor - and you will
probably be surprised to learn that many of them were not 'just'
stories about furious or panicky running back and forth; Barks
was much more inventive than that and indeed able to vary his
plot-lines in a diversity of ways.
