Description

1947-2022, 75th anniversary

Scrooge McDuck, a Scottish-American anthropomorphic Pekin duck created by Carl Barks for the Disney comic books, first appeared in the story "Christmas on Bear Mountain", published in December of 1947 (Four Color #178).

Living in Duckburg, Calisota, in his own "Money Bin" placed on Killmule Hill, he's Donald Duck's maternal uncle, as well as Huey's, Dewey's, and Louie's grand-uncle.

The richest duck in the world, he was initially characterized as a greedy miser and antihero, but in later appearances, he has often been portrayed as a thrifty hero, adventurer, and explorer.

He's, without a doubt, my favorite Disney character.
My ideal Scrooge McDuck story would be written by Carl Barks and illustrated by one of the Italian Disney artists I love!

Here's the cover of Topolino Extra #8 - Papersera News, marvelously illustrated by Corrado Mastantuono.

The volume reprints stories from the series "Papersera News presenta" (Papersera, Duckburg Chronicle in English, is the name of the newspaper owned by Scrooge that sees Donald and Fethry as low-cost journalists/reporters), all written and illustrated by Mastantuono.

The cover sees Scrooge McDuck reading his newspaper and, in the background, Donald and Fethry kinda in pursuit of the news.

A beautiful composition and super-tight pencils by Corrado.

Also, in the additional images, the published cover was digitally colored by Mastantuono himself.

Please also check the other covers I own related to the "Papersera News presenta":

Huge thanks to Corrado!!!
