Story by Carl Barks, Jack Hannah, and Nick George. Art by Bruce Bushman. Pluto Saves the Ship. This issue of Dell's Large Feature Comic is significant for several reasons. It is one of the first American Disney comic books that was not composed of material reprinted from newspaper comic strips. It is Pluto's first comic book. And it represents the first comics work of future Disney comics legend Carl Barks. Barks contributed to the story for this issue (not the art), based on two Pluto cartoons that Barks worked on at Disney studios, Bone Trouble (1940) and The Army Mascot (1942). The art is by Disney animation layout artist Bruce Bushman. The WWII-era story has Pluto encountering Nazi saboteurs on a Navy cruiser. 8 1/2-in. x 11 1/2-in, 48 pages, B&W. Cover price $0.10.
