Disney Ducks Comic Universe/Fridge

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Reading some Scrooge McDuck comics coincidentally after reading Daisy Miller got me wondering—Could John D. Rockerduck's popularity in Europe somehow be related to the traditional "old money vs. new money" conflict between old European and American values? Glomgold may be a dishonest Corrupt Corporate Executive, but he is a Self-Made Man like Scrooge. Scrooge's conflict with someone who inherited his fortune like Rockerduck might be more significant to Europeans. Or I could just be far too presumptuous.
