Comment

This page from "North of the Yukon" features all principal characters in the story: Scrooge, Donald, the nephews, the heroic dog Barko and the villain Soapy Slick.
The story (published at least 94 times in more than 16 countries) was later picked up by Don Rosa ("Last Sled to Dawson" and others) and deeply woven into his famous "Life of $crooge" history...

I got this page in a transfer, and I have left the comments as they were - even my own.


Between 1942 and 1966/67 Barks wrote and drew over 6700 comic book pages, most of which have sadly been destroyed. Only a mere 200 pages have survived the times...

About Carl Barks

Carl Barks was an American cartoonist, author, and painter. He is best known for his comics about Donald Duck and as the creator of Scrooge McDuck. He worked anonymously until late in his career; fans dubbed him The Duck Man and The Good Duck Artist. In 1987, Barks was one of the three inaugural inductees of the Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame.
