Scott’s Comic Book Cover Advent Calendar – December 17th
Filed under: Comics
As anybody who’s been to Disney Land or Disneyworld can attest, Disney and parades go hand and hand. This is especially true during the holiday season, not just in the theme parks, but also in the comics where there have been at least three separate versions of Walt Disney’s Christmas Parade. Today’s comic is from the 1963 Gold Key series, with this eighth issue published in 1971.

As much as I love Disney parades and Christmas parades, I have to admit I’m more intrigued by the story title, “A Christmas for Shacktown.” Shacktown’s a part of the Magic Kingdom I seem to have missed. I suppose these days it’s filled with Nemo and the homeless crew of the Nautilus, now that the 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea ride is closed.
Despondent sailors stealing the occasional bottle of rum from the Pirates of the Caribbean, scraping change from the shallow waters of It’s a Small World After All, and panhandling from the automatons in the World of Tomorrow can’t be allowed to camp on Main Street, USA, I suppose. But they could have come up with something more dignified than “Shacktown.”
