Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge Adventures in Color #22
In "The Golden River," Carl Barks crafts a timeless tale of greed, redemption, and the enduring power of kindness, drawing inspiration from John Ruskin’s classic parable. With his signature blend of whimsy and heart, Barks reimagines the story through the lens of Scrooge McDuck’s adventurous spirit, brought to life in vivid colors by Scott Rockwell and the unmistakable artistry of Carl Barks—whose original cover pencils and inks add a nostalgic touch.
