In "Mastering the Matterhorn," Carl Barks delivers a delightfully absurd adventure as Gyro and Gus stumble upon a dream planet where everyone lives in perfect, effortless idleness. When Gyro’s enthusiasm for progress inadvertently sparks a wave of industriousness among the lazy inhabitants, chaos—and comic gold—ensue. The story’s clever satire shines through Barks’ signature art and storytelling, with Tony Strobl’s cover capturing the whimsy of the tale.
