COMMENTS:

Barks wrote a brief 3½ pages story outline in 1968. The story is primarily an adult story, but it can also be read by children. It was first published in the elaborate Uncle Scrooge McDuck His Life and Times book from 1981 illustrated by 12 water colours from Barks' hand, and it incorporated 'forbidden' subjects in the Disney universe - mortality and death.
Later the story was adapted for the comic books when it was published with standard comic book panels.
