The Never-Ending Comic Book Quiz

I'm running dry on questions but let's try this:

 

Name the title and the issue number of one story each for every continent on the planet to which Uncle Scrooge went onto for an adventure. You must restrict your answers strictly to stories created by Carl Barks!

 

For example, Scrooge went to Europe in YYY in issue XXX.

 

The list of continent is defined here as:

 

Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia / Oceania, North America, South America and Antarctica

 

Good luck!

Amazing as usual, BZ.

No way I could have gotten this w/o a lot of research that I didn't have time for (busy weekend).

Wouldn't this make a great topical collection? Maybe even market it to schools via Scholastic Books. They already dipped their foot in the pond with Bone, right? Is the geography too out of date? Would kids read "old-school" Uncle Scrooge?

They should read old-school Uncle Scrooge and read it at a young age :sumo:

 

Re: "Is the geography too out of date?" ... Well, it seems Geography period is out of favor in the US school system as it is. If the geography in Barks was out of date, wouldn't it be a perfect segway into combining some history of the world into the general study of geography?!? Seems to me that it would make for a very good mix ... but what do I know :sorry:
