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. |
