This is great news. Hopefully, they will also get around to reprinting more of the classic Carl Barks 10 pagers like “Christmas Cheers” that was reprintrd in UNCLE SCROOGE #398. For some stange reason Boom Comics didn’t even bother to list this additional story on their website. When I discovered this at my comic book store (Third Planet), I increased my order.
