By the time this issue came out, many fans had been waiting for a long time to see the work of Marco Rota, whose two-parter, “The Money Ocean,” begins in #266, described as “a mysterious adventure of titanic proportions.” There’s also a nice change-of-pace substitute for the Mail Bin page: five paragraphs of text written and signed by Carl Barks that they’ve titled, “Who is Uncle Scrooge and What Makes Him Tick? -- an Analysis by Carl Barks.” This is a reprint, but is so funny it’s always fresh. Who else but Barks could have been so profound writing about Scrooge McDuck?
