Walt Disney’s Uncle Scrooge Adventures (Uncle Scrooge McDuck) #9-16

Uncle Scrooge Adventures (Uncle Scrooge McDuck) #9-16.Uncle Scrooge McDuck is a cartoon character created in 1947 for The Walt Disney Company by Carl Barks. Appearing in Disney comics, Scrooge is a Scottish-born American anthropomorphic domestic duck. Like his nephew, Donald Duck, he has a yellow-orange bill, legs, and webbed feet.

McDuck was initially characterized as a greedy miser and antihero (similar to Dickens’ original Scrooge character). However, in later appearances, he has often been portrayed as a thrifty hero, adventurer, and explorer. He was originally created by Barks as an antagonist for Donald Duck, first appearing in the 1947 story Christmas on Bear Mountain (Four Color #178). However, McDuck’s popularity grew so large that he became a major figure in the Donald Duck universe. In 1952, he received his own comic book series, called Uncle Scrooge, originally published from 19521984, and has had various revivals over the years (as have other Disney comic lines). The most recent revival, by IDW Publishing, ran from 2015 to 2020.
