Last Sled to Dawson is a comic story. It features Scrooge McDuck, Donald Duck, Huey, Dewey and Louie, Goldie O'Gilt, Soapy Slick, Helmsman Benny, and in flashback, Casey Coot.

Plot[]

Scrooge McDuck goes with his nephews, Donald, Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck, to the Klondike, to retrieve a sled he lost on a glacier many years ago, but an old nemesis, Soapy Slick, makes it his goal to stop him.

References[]

  • A ledger appears with the year "1954" written on it. This is likely intended to be an indicator of when the story takes place.[note 1]

Behind the scenes[]

Last Sled to Dawson was written, drawn, and inked by Don Rosa. It was first published on March the 22nd, 1988. The story was written as a sequel to Back to the Klondike, though the use of Soapy Slick as the story's antagonist was inspired by North of the Yukon.

Footnotes
  1. Don Rosa stated, "There is a tremendous amount of lil' hidden tidbits in the stories; one detail that pinpointed the year a story was taking place was a ledger on page one of 'Last Sled to Dawson' which read '1954'... and I think I did the same thing with some ledger books in 'Cash Flow'" according to "Don Rosa on Himself"
