Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #8 (284)
In "The What-Zit Bird," Uncle Scrooge takes a clever (if questionable) shortcut by painting a dog on a canvas and placing it in his dog kennel to deter intruders—only to find his makeshift watchdog attracting far more attention than he expected. With whimsical charm and crisp art by Tony Strobl, this 1964 adventure from Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #8 (284) showcases a classic Scrooge scheme gone delightfully sideways. The cover, a playful collaboration by Tony Strobl, Paul Murry, and Larry Mayer, captures the moment with a mischievous grin.
