Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge #234

In "The Money Stairs," Uncle Scrooge finds himself stranded on a deserted island, his desperate help sign ignored by the passing world. With no rescue in sight, Scrooge—ever the can-do businessman—replaces his plea for aid with a clever new signal: a staircase made of dollar bills. Written, drawn, and inked by the legendary Carl Barks, with colors by Susan Daigle, this 1989 classic showcases Scrooge’s resourcefulness in the most isolated of settings. The cover, by Daan Jippes, captures the moment with playful precision.
