  • Comments:

    Scrooge and his nephews are in the land of the Pigmy Indians to see to Scrooge's paper factory there. Scrooge is kidnapped by the Pigmy Indians and Ravage DeFlora - the evil manager at Scrooges paper mill starts a "war" against the indians.

    Interesting facts:

    This story was actually banned in the USA because it deals with an ethnic group - Indians. However Gladstone did eventually publish it, despite of Disney's instructions, just before they went out of business.

    This was the very first story Don Rosa did in a serialized version - as he knew that Egmont prefer long stories that way. When he realised that other publishers (like Gladstone) still published it in one part he started doing two versions of every long story - as long as Egmont did not ask particularly for a one-part version.
