Riding Stable is a makeshift title for a comic strip written by Del Connell based on a joke invented by Carl Barks, penciled by Mike Arens and inked by Manuel Gonzales. The strip features Minnie Mouse.
Plot[]
Minnie Mouse has no intention of paying full price for a rental horse when the ride was so bumpy that she was only on the horse half the time!
Continuity[]
- Riding Stable retells the same joke as Carl Barks's Scrooge McDuck one-pager High Rider (1971), putting Minnie Mouse in the starring role instead of Scrooge McDuck — and thereby reimagining the claim as more of an angry protest than a clever way to weasel out of paying full price.
Behind the scenes[]
This comic was only ever printed in English in the newspapers in March of 1971, though it has been reprinted in Germany and Italy a handful of times.
