“How Green Was My Lettuce”

In "How Green Was My Lettuce," Jo stumbles upon a mysterious green lettuce that seems to have a mind of its own, leading to a series of increasingly absurd mishaps at the local diner. With Sal Buscema’s dynamic artwork and Al Milgrom’s crisp inks bringing the surreal chaos to life, this whimsical tale from Uncle Scrooge #173 (1980) delivers a quirky, offbeat adventure. The cover, a classic by Carl Barks, captures the story’s playful spirit with a perfectly drawn, oversized lettuce in a diner setting.
