The first new Ducktales comic to be released in the month of November by Dynamite Comics. Drawn by Tomasso Ronda and written this story by Brandon Montclare. This sounds promising. This is just the beginning of what this will look like, but I like this style, although I would really like to see a little more Donald Duck in these comics, as well as Daisy Duck and other members of the Duck family. It wouldn't be a bad idea to see a cameo from Della Duck either.

I love that there's one hundred percent been moments where a casual goon for a major Gotham villain, definitely has an inkling something horrible might be afoot in the city they fucking live in, but they simply do not care. Sure Riddler tells no one his full plan, and perhaps Joker has a strict lunatics-only hiring policy, but for the remainder, someone knows that they're smuggling in a massive bomb or possibly poisoning an entire population and goes "Gee, sure hope someone figures this one out in time. Anyways I better clock out, it's Taco Tuesday at my house."

I'm oftentimes very negative on this blog especially recently so I just wanted to go ahead and highlight this cover of The Infinity Dime by J. Scott Campbell goes so hard, I love it.

Donald Duck yells at Scrooge and Magica - The Treasure of Croesus (by Don Rosa) - My redraw - Magica captures Scrooge with his first coin (One Dime) - Happy Birthday Magica de Spell - Duck comics and Duckverse - My version

Yes, Happy Birthday Magica de Spell to the best Duck witch ever! Yes, she first appeared in the Carl Barks comic "The Midas Touch" written on April 17, 1961, published on September 28, 1961. Although I prefer her birthday to be in April, again like other Duckverse characters she has two birthdays. So happy birthday to Magica, who celebrates on September 28th!

On this occasion, I drew two drawings, one from last year, the other now. The first drawing I drew was a large Magica that shrunk Scrooge and trapped him with his One Dime, his first coin. Yes, Magica De Spell the famous witch from Naples who lives near Mount Vesuvius wants Scrooge's first coin to gain more power but in vain. Although maybe this time it will work. And so it happens in most comics and OG Ducktales and I did it at the request of a follower and friend from Deviantart.

The second drawing I drew now is a redraw of a famous scene from the 1995 comic "The Treasury of Croesus" drawn and written by Don Rosa. In the end, Scrooge and Magica who is the richest duck in the world competed, and in the end Donald got angry and lashed out at them and proved that Donald was right in the end. And he won the competition. Donald Duck did nothing wrong. I will draw a drawing about it another time. Otherwise, what he said is sufficiently written on that picture and my drawing.

I hope you like these drawings and feel free to like and reblog this, just don't use my same ideas without mentioning me. Thank you! And once again happy birthday Magica de Spell!

Frank Miller drew this...

I honestly don't know whether to cry laughing at how bad this looks or just give up drawing since it seems like no matter how many duck/Disney artists have offered to make covers the publisher is always going to make a bad choice in the eyes of other artists and fans.

Honestly I feel so... Disappointed...

Moment I thought of while thinking about - so if a creature is magically fully fluent in a language from birth does that mean they are familiar with all the concepts too or can they be ignorant of a concept and if so what happens when they hear a word and concept they weren't previously aware of?

Guys. Scrooge McDuck already traveled the multiverse in 1995

Hey look, it’s the doors from doctor strange

-my dad

This year will mark a historical moment in Disney comics history. The first Marvel-made Scrooge McDuck comic. Uncle Scrooge and the Infinity Dime coming up in June will have Scrooge travel through the multiverse to defeat an evil AU version of himself.

To some unfamiliar with Disney comics, this might sound like a lame idea in the trend of many multiverse stories that we are seeing in the cinemas today.

To some familiar with Disney comics, this sounded exactly like the plot of Zio Paperone e il predone dimensionale.

Truth is, the multiverse has always been a part of… just comic books. It’s now starting to slip into other mediums because of the many, many comic book adaptations just getting to that point of the lore, but the comic books themselves have had it for a long time now. Including Disney comics.

Though for Disney it’s less a case of: we wanted to explain continuity errors and then went a bit too far, and more a case of: if you have comics coming out literally every single day of the week then at some point you just get to the multiverse.

There are many of these to be found in Disney comics, which we might talk about later if someone is interested or I feel like it, but today we are going to go over the one most similar in premise to the upcoming Marvel release.

Because I just think it’s really funny how similar they are. Like at this point I would call it a reboot.

Oh oh, Scrooge and multiverse, look at this. I’m pretty sure the Loki tv series just copied their time doors from this comic.

Federico Povoleri wrote a pretty simple story. Someone is stealing from Scrooge again, and this time, the culprit turns out to be… himself!

‘Our’ Scrooge is signified by the red coat (and later the multiverse hopping suit). All the alternates will be clad in blue. DT87 Scrooge is just another AU that no one cares about confirmed

This stealing Scrooge is our ‘Scrooge above all’. He wants to be richer than all his other variants and steals from them for that or something. I don’t remember very well but why he does it doesn’t matter. It’s evil Scrooge and he steals that’s all we need to know.

As we have seen already, he escapes with an universe hopping door. As he always does within these kinds of situations, Scrooge calls Gyro who finds some kind of dimensional energy lingering around where the door used to be. He does the usual explain the multiverse bit.

Then Gyro does in a few hours/days/wedontactuallyknow what Red Raider has been trying for years. There’s a reason they kicked him out of PKNA he would be too overpowered.

Yeah altronave my nose.

Scrooge arrives in the bin of another him, and explains as well as he can. This repeats a few times and I would love to show it but there is a 10 image limit on tumblr mobile for some reason.

Finally he arrives at the bin of the Scrooge who steals and they have a little typical multiverse discussion (I am the real one. No bitch I am. But which one are you. A real me would never do this. That kind of stuff)

But he gets defeated by bad Scrooge. Oh no the only one who could defeat Scrooge has defeated him. What will happen now?

Exactly what you think happens. prime!Scrooge never closed the AU doors and so everyone he visited could just hop through and arrive at Scrooge above all’s office. Yay.

It is not a bad comic. It has the single idea, it sticks to it, it executes it well. The interactions with AU Scrooge’s are just plain fun. At the time of writing the story has place 6020 on inducks which is pretty dang high for such a silly comic.

It’s very much a multiverse story in a classic Disney comics way. It’s not used to bring multiple continuities together. No storia e gloria Scrooge VS life and times Scrooge. Nothing dramatic happening or high stakes. Just Scrooge going on another adventure, and for being one of the first multiverse comics involving Scrooge that didn’t pull random bullshit, it’s considered good by most of the fandom it seems. That the Comicup artists was pretty decent helped as well.

But now, what can we expect from what is totally gonna be a remake of this?

Infinity Dime is Marvel. It’s gonna take a Marvel approach. Assuming it’s not gonna be parody (which i kind of really hope it isn’t), then what will it be? Are we gonna see something similar to this, where Scrooge will just meet different versions of himself or will we see established AU’s? Both Ducktales and all his other animated counterparts (i heard the americans like christmas carol scrooge) seem like easy picks. Will they fight? Will it be Secret Wars? Or will they work together like in this comic?

Marvel has still given out zero information about the story (hell, they haven’t even made clear which artists aside from a few are drawing. “celebrated Scrooge artists” does NOT narrow it down) except for that super vague premise. So the best we can do is imagine this story but with the Marvel flavor. Not that I have read enough Marvel comics to properly understand what that means but ive seen some movies okay.

We can probably imagine there will be more ‘evil’ Scrooges. Some Scroogehenchmen. And they will fight. We gotta have action scenes. Which I trust will look good because Mangiatordi I believe his connection to the project alone will secure that the art department will be amazing. His existence is enough.

I’m also expecting DT17 Scrooge to at least cameo. He’s the perfect character for this type of story, fits way better than any other non comic variant. DT87 Scrooge could work as maybe a younger version? Who is not sure what he got caught up in. But then we would need emotional scenes between Scrooge and Scrooge and that’s probably asking too much from Jason Aaron.

Oh hmm actually. I can see when good Scrooge fights bad Scrooge in the climax he will do a big speech that will last a good 4 pages and will teach bad Scrooge what it takes to be a real Scrooge. That sounds stupid enough to be a Marvel thing but not so stupid as to become completely ridiculous.

I’m not expecting actual references to other established comic Scrooge AU’s. We will probably have Barks and Rosa references and that’s it. I’m not even expecting a Van Horn reference tbh. It’s all Barks and Rosa we gotta keep it beginner friendly. It might even just be Rosa. Which indirectly will result in a Barks reference because every Rosa reference is just a Barks reference but with extra steps.

I’m trying to make predictions okay? So I can go I SAID SO when it comes out. It’ll be really funny for me and annoying for you guys. You don’t even have to read this (yet). This is just for in the future so I can look like a wizard.

The scene where Gyro explains the multiverse might just get copied one on one. Maybe Gyro will be replaced by Ludwig? At least I don’t think they will have Scrooge just go: oh yeah ive seen this before. Maybe another Scrooge will explain it to him/secretly the reader. It WILL involve a big cosmic looking image that will represent the multiverse. It just has to. Even if just to show the Marvel audience how good these Italian Scrooge artists are.

I don’t think Donald or the nephews are gonna play a big role. Maybe at the beginning and end, maybe they will somehow stay in contact with Scrooge or he thinks about them a few times to remind us of hey this is Donald Duck. But I think most is gonna be a solo Scrooge adventure just like we have already seen.

Idk. I really want to talk more about Infinity Dime because it’s the most exciting US made Disney comic in ages. Idk why no one else seems to be hyped. Where is all the rambling and speculation guys?? Not about the covers, but about the actual story!

Anyways now we get to the most important question: do i think it will feature Magica?

Maybe. (Definitely not gonna play a big role if she even appears. Maybe a cameo when at some point there will be a dramatic flashback… Or she could show up in one of the AU’s. Maybe just a short scene in the beginning showing his usual life but that sounds lame. Probably not gonna have a role in the story at least, and I kinda hope it won’t have any Magica at all because I’m scared that they will go of off Rosa’s characterization lol.)

Ok Remember to infinity your dimes and uncle your scrooges gby

Uncle Scrooge by John Romita Jr., with Inks by Scott Hanna.

"Uncle Scrooge and the Infinity Dime" but only about the stuff that really matters (spoilers!)

He's so cute it's unfair

i bought a blind pack and i got the prettiest common cover by Gabriele Dell'oto

"Everybody hates me, and I hate everybody!"

First of all, the art is BEAUTIFUL. The colors and shapes make everything better. Now i get why people were asking the villain scrooge to be on the tumblr sexyman tournment. I mean look at him while he YEETS the scrooges–

L + ratio to this anthagonist bozo who finally went fully insane and destroyed WORLDS to be the richest guy in the multiverse, all because he thinks Donald and the boys rejected him while actually they just got lost in the snow (they survived btw)

And he still can't even recognize which of them is HIS Donald! (damn just a few months with him and the boys and Scrooge already got that dad look of when the kid is messing up)

THE COUNCIL OF GYROS

cyberpunk beagles

In the end there's like, a hundred Donalds, a bunch of Scrooges and Gyros, at least three copies of each one of the triplets, two Goldies and Grandma Ducks and ONE WEBBY

Everyone in the middle of DONALD WAR (that started because Donald called Donald ugly)

Well i think it's a nice comic. It's nice to see for once the concept of Scrooge turning into a villain because he ended up very lonely with too much greed and a heart of stone to actually open up to familiar happiness again. At the end, Scrooge is happier being a father family man than just a billionaire, and finally having his first christmas with the absolute mess now they all call it family.
