“…I was talking to Ralph Macchino [sic] and was letting Marvel know I was hungry for more assignments. He said something about Kidnapped and I said, ‘Sure, sign me up!’ I didn’t exactly get to pick this particular series. Also, they were pretty happy the way Treasure Island turned out, and they thought I’d be good on another pirate tale, I think. Kidnapped is about a young boy, David Balfour, whose greedy uncle tried to swindle him out of his inheritance and plans to ship him on a boat and sell his [sic] as a slave. Really neat stuff to work on.”
