Four Color #1267

This 1961 Dell one-shot puts Gyro Gearloose front and center, riding a wild single-wheeled contraption with a glowing bulb and dangling gadgetry trailing behind — the cover even proudly labels him "Inventor." Donald Duck and Huey, Dewey, and Louie look on with a mix of curiosity and amusement as Gyro zips past, and the whole cheerful scene is brought to life by Carl Barks, who handled both the pencils and inks. At just 15 cents, this Dell gem showcases Barks at his inventive best, wrapping the whimsy of Duckburg's most eccentric genius into one delightful package.
