Theodore Roosevelt, his son, and this cool guy explored a dangerous and unmapped branch of the Amazon River, which is even more impressive when you consider that it was 1913 and technology hadn't been invented yet

On October 14, 1912, while campaigning in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Roosevelt was shot by a saloonkeeper named John Flammang Schrank. The bullet lodged in his chest after penetrating his steel eyeglass case and passing through a thick (50 pages) single-folded copy of the speech he was carrying in his jacket.[157] Roosevelt, as an experienced hunter and anatomist, correctly concluded that since he was not coughing blood, the bullet had not reached his lung, and he declined suggestions to go to the hospital immediately. Instead, he delivered his scheduled speech with blood seeping into his shirt.[158] He spoke for 90 minutes. His opening comments to the gathered crowd were, "Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot, but it takes more than that to kill a Bull Moose."[159] Afterwards, probes and an x-ray showed that the bullet had lodged in Roosevelt's chest muscle, but did not penetrate the pleura, and it would be less dangerous to leave it in place. Roosevelt carried the bullet with him for the rest of his life.[160]

You're right. Scrooge beats him, but the temple slides down the mountain it's suited on and lands right in the digsite for the Panama Canal. Fearing that Congress would want to use the treasures to fund the project, and for the other nations that helped with the project demand their share, they decide to cover it up, to dig it up later, 100 years from now, "in the utopia of the future, where there is no greed or war", as Roosevelt puts it. Scrooge still wants his share for helping Roosevelt, and the deal is that he can demand anything he wants. However, he accidentally drinks something that knocks him out cold, and his sisters have to choose for him. They pick, of course, the teddy bear. Donald, who Scrooge had been telling this story to, starts laughing until he cries because his mom screwed over Scrooge so hard... until the nephews remind Scrooge that he owns the first, original, #1 teddy bear of all time. Happy end!

Alright, so graybook is the only open case at the moment. We'll just see how things shake out, since I would greatly prefer it if he was in it from start to finish.

Speaking of which, 2 1/2 hours from now.

Is there an easy way to collect and read this that you know of? I've been meaning to for a while but I like physical copies and searching on Amazon gives me a bunch of imprecisely-named stuff and what looks to be a bunch of overpriced, out-of-print books.
