U$A #34

[Augie De Blieck Jr.]

Having finally found a job a couple of weeks ago, I now have the 
opportunity to catch up on those Disney Comics I could't afford but one 
month ago.  And I merrily comment as I go:

Spoilers head:

Uncle $crooge Adventures #34 (The $1.95 Gladstone variety)

I liked Money Counting Machine, although its basic premise does unnerve 
me a it.  $crooge getting tired from counting his money? I though that 
was one of his pure joys in life, along with swimming around in it.  
However, his new found adamance (is that a word?) towards counting it in 
the end works well.  After that plot point, I liked the story very much.  
$crooge seeing that they had stolen a quarter and being so enraged really 
cracked me up.  Especially the looks on the policemen when an enraged 
$crooge tells them that "they stole a quarter!".  Great stuff. Good 
Branca art, too.

Vic Lockman's backup story: Haven't read it yet.  Can't get past those 
awful drawings.  Maybe when I'm really bored. And this guy has an ad this 
issue offering to teach people how to draw?
