‘Uncle Scrooge’ #7 (Legacy #467) continues to establish the hero’s early days These stories are great, dynamic, and illustrative of a boundless bounty of tales yet to come.

"Landing a young Scrooge McDuck in Duckburg, Uncle Scrooge #7 begins the transformation of Scrooge from outdoorsman to socialite – and the city from frontierstown to metropolis."
