Boys' and Girls' March of Comics #41
In "Race to the South Seas!", Uncle Scrooge’s sudden disappearance in the South Seas sends Donald and Gladstone racing across the ocean in rival ships, each hoping to find him first. With Carl Barks handling every aspect of the story—from writing and art to inking and lettering—this 1949 adventure blends high-seas tension with classic Barks humor, as luck seems to favor Gladstone while Donald battles one misfortune after another. The cover by Walt Kelly captures the drama of the journey, setting the stage for an unforgettable voyage.
