Note Regarding BOOM!'s Uncle Scrooge #400 Incentive Cover

Please note that when BOOM! Studios' Uncle Scrooge #400 (Regular Edition: DEC100845F, $3.99; Deluxe Edition: DEC100846F, $6.99) was solicited in December 2010's PREVIEWS, a 1-in-10 Daan Jippes Incentive Cover was also solicited. However, due to an error, a line corresponding to this incentive cover did not appear in December's Retailer Order Form.

That incentive cover will be offered by BOOM!, and retailers will receive one free copy of Jippes' cover version for every 10 copies of the regular edition of Uncle Scrooge #400 (DEC100845F) ordered with their December initial orders. The incentive cover is scheduled to go on sale with the regular and deluxe editions on February 2.

Ever since Scrooge McDuck's first appearance in Carl Barks's "Christmas on Bear Mountain" in 1947's Four Color Comics #178, the penny-pinching miser has been one of Disney's most popular characters, and with appearances in Mickey's Christmas Carol and DuckTales one of the most recognized as well. BOOM!'s Uncle Scrooge #400 pays tribute to the Duckburg cheapskate and Duck family patriarch with an oversized 40-page issue stuffed with classic stories featuring the amazing talents of Barks, Don Rosa, Jippes, and Giorgio Cavazzano, including some stories that have never been published in the United States!

"The stories you'll find in Uncle Scrooge #400 are truly some of the rarest and greatest Scrooge tales ever published," said BOOM! Marketing Director Chip Mosher. "Fans demanded classic Scrooge tales, and trust me when I say there's no better place to start than Uncle Scrooge #400. How can you go wrong with Carl Barks, or Daan Jippes, or any of the amazing creators in this book?"

In this milestone 400th issue, don't miss the incomparable Barks appearing as himself and actually meeting Scrooge McDuck and his clan in Duckburg! It's a heartwarming tribute to Scrooge's creator by modern master Giorgio Cavazzano in "The Duck Man." Next, watch in awe as the witch, Magica de Spell, finally gets her hands on Scrooge's Number One Dime in the classic story "Obsession," seeing print in the U.S. for the first time, with art by master artist Daan Jippes! Then delight at three… count 'em, three… one-page gags by the one and only Carl Barks himself that appeared in the very first issue of Dell Comics' Uncle Scrooge — "Osogood Silver Polish," "Coffee for Two," and "Soupline Eight."
