Anonymous asked: your duck doodle comics were the first I've ever read, and now I've read almost all of the Uncle Scrooge comics, from Just a Poor Old Man right up to the ones from 2014! I'm super grateful, I haven't had this much fun binging on comics since Sandman. I was wondering, what was the first duck comic you ever read?

oh wow! that’s fantastic, I’m so happy that you found the duck comics (and like them as much as I do, apparently!)- as for your question, it happens to be one that nobody knows the title for, because Barks never gave it one! but it’s often referred to as The Horseradish Treasure. I had no idea there were any disney comics until I found it in the library- and I read it expecting something like the Donald shorts I’d seen on TV, but boy I got a shock! It was so action packed and beautifully drawn, and the characters were so delightfully multifaceted (especially Scrooge) that I was absolutely hooked just from that one story.
