In "Digging," Woody heads to Alaska chasing gold, only to team up with a bumbling guide named Chief Wormy-Apple. When their journey leads them to a supposedly haunted mine, they uncover a surprising secret—Sourdough Sam, a long-lost friend of the guide, is the ghost behind the legend. The discovery of a massive gold vein sets off a chain of misadventures, but their fortune quickly fades as reckless spending follows them back south. Art by Dick Hall, inks by Suzanne Seaborne; cover by Dan Gormley.
