The thing with Scrooge McDuck... Do you ...Y'know... The thing with Scrooge McDuck... Do you wonder if maybe Carl Barks, at one time... wanted to make him Jewish? Instead of a top hat and sideburns, he's got a vest and those little curls Orthodox Jews have?<BR/><BR/>"Donald, you're farbloget if you think I'm goin' on yet another adventure with you and those goniff nephews of yours!

I like how you can root for hi...Scrooge is awesome. I like how you can root for him and simultaneously dislike him. <BR/><BR/>He's a self-made Duck, but also a skinflint and a shameless opportunist. Actually I think he's a bit more stridently capitalist in Don Rosa's hands than with Carl Barks. I seem to remember that Barks usually made Scrooge pay for his greed. <BR/><BR/>Or maybe I'm just applying politics to innocent cartoon characters because of election fever.sTeVeLeChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17227161406980348422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21467594.post-4525078802882532792008-10-31T17:19:00.001-07:002008-10-31T17:19:00.001-07:00WICKED!

I was never a big Don Rosa fan, at least not compared to Carl Barks, but he more than proved himself to me with that story. Epic, detailed and engrossing.
