CARL BARKS (2 points)

It was so lovely to read such appealing and easily comics books by Carl Barks. 
For me, reading his comics was almost the same experience as watching a cartoon with just a little be more words. Maybe it is because of the characters I mostly saw in the TV series or the great clear and cartoony art style. Or maybe because the was author tells the story is just very clear and straightforward. Yet stories themselves are interesting to read because most of them are adventures and give me Indiana Jones vibes. 

Plus author uses some story elements that you can't often find in the comics that days like, for example, parallel storytelling. When in the 'Prize of Pizarro," characters are moving forward to find the treasure, and in the meantime, the villagers are trying to stop them. Still, every time unsuccessfully, so the main characters can't even see them. 

The mains characters themselves are very interesting. I really like how the author introduced us to the main character feature. Uncle Scrooge tells his nephew that he should not go by even just a soda because it costs money.

Right away, we figure out that he is a wealthy man who cares about his money more than his relatives. 
And that for him, the statues of the richest duck in the world is the most important. 

Finally, these comics are just so amusing to read. They are funny, light, and very appealing. It is a lovely break after the epic stories of the deep superheroes.
