Walt Disney's Giant Comics #428
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge and the Prize of Pizarro," Scrooge’s Money Bin dips below 99 feet, prompting him to loan Donald $50 to find a quick fortune. Donald’s auction bid for a trunk of Easter Island figurines leads the trio on a surprising journey to Christmas Island, where they trade the statues and rediscover the value of adventure. Written and illustrated by Tony Strobl, with inks by John Liggera, this 1968 tale blends whimsy and wits in a classic Disney comic adventure.
Uncle Scrooge stumbles upon a long-lost letter hidden in an old Spanish galleon, leading him and the nephews—Donald, Huey, Dewey, and Louie—on a perilous trek through the Andes in search of the Incas’ legendary gold mines. With ancient traps and unseen guardians waiting in the high peaks, the journey tests their wits and courage at every turn.
When the money level in Scrooge’s Money Bin dips to a troubling 99 feet, he tasks Donald with finding a quick way to boost it—loaning him $50 for a high-stakes investment. Donald’s gamble at an auction lands him a trunk full of Easter Island figurines, sparking a wild idea: if Christmas Island natives believe they bring luck, maybe a trade between the islands could turn a profit. With the nephews in tow and Gyro’s latest contraption in the cockpit, the crew takes off for Christmas Island, where a curious exchange could change everything—though Scrooge’s fortune still hangs in the balance.
