Birdwatching when you're a duck
People go to Africa and zoos to looks at chimps
I dont know about Barks, but Rosa says various times in his collections that he doesn't see the the Duck characters as actual real ducks, but anthropomorphic humans.
There is this comic were the Beagle Boys use a watch that can stop time, escaping from the Ducks they cross a patch of grass and then stop time. By this point in the story the Ducks already have a way to move in stopped time, but when running across the grass, since time is stopped, the spiky grass is like frozen solid. So they hurt their duck feet when running across it.
Rosa said he later thought it was a bad idea to show the ducks getting their feet getting hurt because that relates the reader to actual duck anatomy and he didn't want the reader to think about the characters as "animals" but actual people.
He ain’t an animal.
I have a lot of the Fanta Barks books to catch up on. I'm excited the next one is a Scrooge book but I've been letting myself get behind on the Donald ones.
Could be worse.
Speaking of duck comics, I remember someone scanlating and posting all of Ducks on the Road last year here, does anyone have the MEGA for that or at least an archive link or something?
Thought they only translated the first part?
