Barks adaptations on "DuckTales"

I can add one "DuckTales" Barks adaptation to Harry Fluks' list.  The second 
season's "The Unbreakable Bin" was an adaptation of Barks' "The Unsafe Safe." 
 Plus, there were a couple of instances where certain FEATURES of Barks 
stories were plopped into a totally new context.  For example, the first 
chapter of the "Gizmoduck" serial, "Liquid Assets," featured both the 
"movable money bin" from a four-page filler story in a mid-50s Uncle $crooge 
issue AND the famed termite-fueled dam-bust from "Only a Poor Old Man" (sadly 
[given the fact that it was animated] a pale shadow of Barks' pen-and-ink 
rendition).
