Right, so Part 1 of the 2017 multi-part story Under Siege, which New IDW are running to celebrate the coming of their 50th issue of Uncle Scrooge (is the similarity between those two titles intentional, I wonder?), contains this arresting triple-panel:
I think we all know what the Money Ocean is from, and the pyramid Money Bin is, of course, from Mummy Fearest. Can't seem to recall where the fishtank Bin is from, though. Any help? I find it hard to believe that the story would completely make up one reference while having the other two point to specific stories… Maybe it's a story not yet published in the U.S.A.?
(In other news, the Fresh And New translations… still aren't great. This time around, all clunky dialogue being equal, they also managed to end this epic anniversary story on the climactic and fan-pleasing line: "What happened to Uncle Scrooge?". I mean, for crying out loud! Was that "ever" really beyond your reach?)
