Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge #16

In "Back to Long Ago!", Uncle Scrooge finds himself under the spell of the eccentric Mesmer J. Spellcaster, who tricks him into a hypnotic trance in exchange for rent money. Under the influence, Scrooge recalls a forgotten past as Matey McDuck, a naval officer who once buried a treasure in the Caribbean—sparking a race across the seas. With Donald Duck and the nephews also caught in the spell, the whole crew sets off on a shared journey to uncover a mystery buried in time.

Uncle Scrooge signs up for "The Colossalest Surprize Quiz Show," eager to win big—especially when the top prize is $120,000. But just before going live, he learns a shocking twist: any earnings beyond that amount would trigger a tax bill of one billion dollars. Now, with the spotlight on him and his fortune hanging in the balance, Donald, Huey, Dewey, and Louie watch nervously as Scrooge faces the final question.
