New Ducktales comic (Ducktales original) by Brandon Montclare and Tommaso Ronda - Uncle Scrooge and Huey, Dewey and Louie - "Cold Hard Cash" - Eleventh part

The new Ducktales comic is out and it's about the journey of Donald's nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck and Donald's Uncle Scrooge to the Yukon in the Klondike in search of gold and winter games like snowball, and also finding new things especially a new monster, the supposed "Wingwolf" who keeps the Klondike gold. Unlike previous issues of this comic, this comic is shorter. In the end to save Huey, Dewey and Louie, Scrooge had to give the found gold to the monster, he still managed to take a lot of the treasure he found there.

The cover of the comic was drawn by the genius Ivan Bigarella. Admittedly, I will have to complain a little, because I expected with this comic, at least during the trip to the Klondike, that Scrooge would see his old love under the name of Goldie O'Gilt (Glittering Goldie), but unfortunately it didn't happen, so I'm a little disappointed. I hope there will be her presence in one of the next issues, but just maybe. But that's just my opinion.

I do not own any rights to this, it is the right of the author and official Disney (although I have a negative opinion of the current company). Enjoy!

Klondine. 5191 Las Vegas Blvd S. – 1986. Photo by Gilles Lucato.

Kona Kai motel was built here in '64 with the A-frame motel wings. There was a bar/lounge opened in front in '65 that went by the name Sonny's, and Kona Kai Lounge. Ralph Engelstad bought the property in late 60s.

John Woodrum was the next owner in '76. The name was changed to the Klondike. A red casino building was added in '82. The front hotel portion was redecorated to match the casino in the mid ‘90s. 

Klondike was directly across the street from the Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas Nevada sign and served as the unofficial parking area for travelers stopping at the landmark. Woodrum sold the hotel and casino in 2005, it closed in 2006, and was demolished in 2007. The property was used in 2014 for a Harley Davidson dealership.

“Aziraphale?” Crowley asked, dangling upside down on Aziraphale’s shoulder as he made his way through the snowy forest, “Is this really necessary?"

“It’s a bit late to change my mind now, Crowley dear. Don’t you think?”

When the snow thaws in the spring of 1897, old rules are broken and dreams come true. Aziraphale is assigned to work as a prospector, while Crowley spreads torment in the nearest city as a dance hall girl. In a flash of anger, Aziraphale kidnaps Crowley to his claim.

Adventure and pining in the snowy scenery of the last great gold rush.
