Hilarious Highlights: In the lead story, "The Lost Crown of Genghis Khan", Scrooge, Donald, and the nephews trek to the Himalayas chasing a legendary treasure, only to tangle with a sneaky Yeti and some Barks-brand shenanigans. Plus, get a dose of Gyro Gearloose’s nutty brilliance in "Inventor of Anything"! It’s 36 pages of pure, unfiltered Duckburg chaos—no ads, just golden-age storytelling that’ll have you chuckling like a duck in a dollar storm.

Market Trends: Golden Age Disney comics are hotter than a Duckburg heatwave. Collectors are snapping up Barks’ work faster than Scrooge dives into his money bin, with mid-grade issues like this seeing steady 5-10% annual price bumps over the last few years.
-
Upcoming Events Boost: Marvel’s Uncle $crooge and the Infinity Dime #1 (June 2025) is set to spotlight Scrooge in a multiverse adventure, stirring up fresh buzz for his classic tales. Expect renewed interest in Barks’ originals as new fans flock to the source material.
-
Scrooge’s Staying Power: With Scrooge starring in comics, cartoons, and even video games, his cultural clout keeps these early issues in demand. This isn’t a flash-in-the-pan superhero—it’s a duck who’s been printing money for 70+ years!
Prediction: By late 2025, a VG+ copy could nudge toward $175-$200 if the Marvel hype and collector frenzy keep quacking along. Long-term? Stash it like Scrooge’s lucky dime, and you might be grinning at $250+ in a few years.
