Walt Disney’s “Uncle Scrooge in Crown of the Mayas”


Because this piece carries the Walt Disney name, it is no surprise that the drawings are very well done. The characters are cute but not too childish looking. The panels are well organized and the plot, though lengthy has many interesting twists and turns to keep the reader’s attention. The coloring and backgrounds of each panel seem to blend seamlessly into one another which help to keep the story moving along. Despite the predictable Disney “crime doesn’t pay” plot driving theme, the piece doesn’t come across as being too campy or cheesy and therefore should appeal to adults and children alike.
