“The Black Pearls of Tabu Yama”

In "The Black Pearls of Tabu Yama," Scrooge, Donald, and the nephews face a perilous island curse in their quest for legendary black pearls, only to find their ship mysteriously pulled into a hidden underwater cavern. With the odds stacked against them, they devise a daring plan to harness volcanic pressure to blast their way out—before the depths claim them. A masterful tale from Carl Barks, with every page drawn, inked, and lettered by the legendary creator himself, and colored by Rich Tommaso, this issue is a standout in The Complete Carl Barks Disney Library. The cover, also by Barks, captures the adventure’s high-stakes tension in bold, timeless lines.
