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 $crooge And The Infinity Dime #1 - Scrooge swims in his money - Scrooge and his Money Bin - My redraw - Duck comics - Duckverse

I drew as my redraw in my own way in my own style with a comic cover drawn by Alex Ross in which Scrooge McDuck, the richest duck in the world swims in his money which he loves the most, and it is also his greatest love. Yes, for the release of this comic (soon to be released) I drew this, and you really can't be a Scrooge McDuck fan if you don't know about his love of money and that he likes to bathe in his money most often in the Money Bin in his vault. Yes, the coins are a little bigger, but it would have been difficult if I had drawn them very small, so I enlarged them. And that I added five fingers to Scrooge. My mistake, sorry. And behind Scrooge are Donald Duck and his nephews, Huey, Dewey and Louie, as Scrooge's closest family in the clouds. These are just his thoughts, in reality they are alive, but they don't care about money as much as Scrooge does.

I hope you like this drawing and feel free to like and reblog this, just don't use my same ideas without mentioning me. Thank you. Also this is my gift to @pick-and-shovel-laborer and @thatscroogemcduckfan !

Uncle Scrooge #1 variant cover by Alex Ross.

This cover is everything. Alex Ross captured the magic of Barks' oil paintings... but with gouache!

It's so good to see Disney comics getting revamped Oversea. Feels like americans discovered a whole new world of wonders and started having fun with it. Well done, Marvel! :)

And, I mean, they did not pick anybody to play with it... they chose Jason Aaron. And Alex Ross. And a whole bunch of the best italian Disney artists from Mottura to Pastrovicchio! Cool stuff!

Primo fumetto americano con gli standard character (esclusi i revival da Disney Afternoon) da quando?

Ai testi Jason Aaron, che non so bene come inquadrare in ottica disneyana (devo dire che in generale l'ho perso di vista dopo la fine del suo magnifico Thor). Sarà, comunque, un one-shot e uscirà (stranamente, ma forse non così stranamente, dato il taglio che la preview sembra lasciar intendere) per la Marvel.

Ai disegni troveremo, invece dei nomi ben noti: la preview, infatti, cita Paolo Mottura, Francesco D'Ippolito, Vitale Mangiatordi (ed altri), mentre la cover A è di Lorenzo Pastrovicchio. La cover B è, invece, opera di Alex Ross.

This June, one of fiction’s most legendary adventurers stars in his first-ever Marvel comic book: UNCLE $CROOGE AND THE INFINITY DIME #1!

Announced earlier today at the ComicsPRO Comic Industry Conference, UNCLE $CROOGE AND THE INFINITY DIME #1 represents an unheralded Marvel Comics and Disney collaboration. The extraordinary one-shot will be written by prolific Marvel writer Jason Aaron, known for penning some the X-Men and Avengers’ most pivotal modern sagas. Aaron will team up with a cadre of celebrated Scrooge artists to masterfully blend the beloved world of Uncle Scrooge with the hallmarks of Marvel Comics storytelling.

I was about to pre-order Uncle Scrooge and the Infinity Dime and I found out some interesting things.

First of all: there are MORE variant covers yet to be revealed!!!

There's a variant by JOE QUEASADA!!! One by FRANK MILLER!!! 😱 And one by SCOTTIE YOUNG!!! <3

And apparently Dell'Otto's (sigh), Campbell's, Simonson's and Quesada's are ratio variants. Respectively 1:10, 1:50, 1:100 and 1:25.

Also, McNiven's variant is a bit more expensive (11,25$), probably because is FOIL 😃

#I BEG YOUR PARDON #marvel's going crazy!#this is amazing #uncle scrooge and the infinity dime #scrooge mcduck #marvel comics #disney ducks #variant cover #joe quesada #skottie young #frank miller #i'm really curious to see scrooge drawn by scottie young!#it's gonna be funny!!!
