Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge Adventures #49
In "The Diary of Sideburns Smew," Scrooge McDuck uncovers a surprising family secret when he discovers that his great-uncle Orville Smew was once a notorious outlaw who hid a fortune in the Breakjaw Mountains a century ago. With Huey, Dewey, and Louie in tow, Scrooge sets off on a rugged treasure hunt through the wilds of the Old West—only to find that the lawless frontier hasn’t changed much, and danger still lurks in the shadows. Written by Paul Halas, Dave Angus, and Gary Leach, with art by Santanach and colors by Scott Rockwell, this 1997 adventure blends family legacy with frontier thrills. The cover, by William Van Horn, captures the dusty, daring spirit of the quest.
