Description

1947-2022, 75 years 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 favourite Disney character.
My ideal Scrooge McDuck story would be written by Carl Barks and illustrated by one of the Italian Disney artists I love!

***

Not my first Disney Xmas cover... I love them! This one immediately felt really special, it has a warmth and sheer beauty that I bet even Carl Barks, Scrooge's creator, would have loved.

Please check the cover prelim here.

Also in the additional images, the published cover digitally colored (there's also an appropriate gold effect that brings back memories since I remember some Disney publications that I read as a kid in the 80's and loved).

Huge thanks to Giacomo and Andrea!
