	Fictional character - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		For example, Bigger Thomas of Native Son by Richard Wright is often seen as representative of young fl men in the 1930s, doomed to a life of poverty and exploitation.
		Minor characters, or stock characters, are often the focus of this kind of analysis since they tend to rely more heavily on stereotypes than more central characters.
		For example, Nazi-hunter Yakov Liebermann in The Boys from Brazil by Ira Levin is often compared to real life Nazi-hunter Simon Wiesenthal, and corrupted populist politician Willie Stark from All the King's Men by Robert Penn Warren is often compared to Louisiana governor Huey P. Long.

		Thus, Scrooge's comment that he fought in the "cattle wars of the old frontier" was turned into a story about the young Scrooge's cattle job in Montana.
		Perhaps I'm a bit biased, since Scrooge McDuck is my favorite Disney character, but I found this to be one of the most captivating and amazing stories I have ever read in comic form.
		Scrooge's adventures are not unlike those of Forrest Gump or Harry Flashman, in that he has a habit of turning up in the right place at the right time and encountering all sorts of famous historical characters or events.

		During his life he was an author, legislator, soldier, big-game hunter, diplomat, conservationist, naval-power enthusiast, peace broker, and progressive reformer.

	Sequential Tart: Thirteen Reasons Why I Love Uncle Scrooge Comics (vol IX/iss 5/May 2006)
		The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck (Gemstone) is exactly what it sounds like: the origin and evolution of Scrooge McDuck from a poor shoeshine in Scotland to world adventurer to world's richest duck.
		Life and Times is a labor of love, without a doubt.
		Once mighty, it fell into ruin as the family's fortunes faded; by the time Scrooge set off on his own, it was dilapidated, and Clan McDuck had dwindled to only a handful of members (not counting all the ghosts).

		The Life of Scrooge McDuck Companion is it, six new chapters that weave through the original 12 that have the pre-miser Scrooge encountering Magica De Spell, the Beagle Boys, Annie Oakley and other Western icons, and Teddy Roosevelt at the Panama Canal.
		Filling out the volume are an excerpt from another Rosa tale of the early Scrooge, "Last Sled to Dawson," and "The Dream of a Lifetime," which puts an amusing time-travel spin on a number of the Life and Times chapters.
		Don Rosa made a wonderfull job, in the companion as in the main book "the Life and Times of scrooge McDuck", succeeding to bring a breathtaking story with really hilarious moments (how scrooge gained his first dime, and the story about how the boat dislocated and the piano went through the windows)...

		First Scrooge story by Don Rosa, “The Son of the Sun” (US 219), a sequel to the classic Barks Donald Duck adventure “Lost in the Andes.” “Sport Goofy in Soccermania,” an unreleased theatrical cartoon produced in 1984 and starring a pre-DuckTales Scrooge, finally sees the light of day as a TV special.

	The All-New All-Different Howling Curmudgeons: It isn't enough to tell us what a man did. You've got to tell us who he ...
		Unlike his nephew Donald, Scrooge was a comic book character first and only later made the leap to animation (Huey, Dewey, and Louie made their debuts in the Donald Duck newspaper strip).
		So what Don Rosa does in Life and Times is comb over all those Barks stories for various references to Scrooge's history to create a timeline of Scrooge's life.
		As a result, when he sends Scrooge to the Dakota Badlands, Rosa is actually drawing the Dakota Badlands, and when Scrooge mines for gold in the Yukon, he's using real gold-mining techniques.

		"Scrooge is the embodiment of the hope in all of us that anything is possible if we stand by our ethics and apply ourselves," continued Clark of what he personally finds the best elements of the character.
		Clark thinks Scrooge McDuck embodies the "simplest adventure concept of them all: the quest." He equated Scrooge's quest to another familiar pop culture pursuit.
		Along with The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck, Clark said there's "quite a few things that should be of interest to Disney enthusiasts" coming up from the Publisher.

	IGN: Comics in Context #119: All-Star Bats
		In The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck, Rosa undertakes the monumental task of creating a graphic novel-length backstory for Scrooge McDuck, building upon the references that Barks made in his classic tales.
		In the course of this graphic novel, Rosa brings Scrooge through real time up from age ten in 1877 into the story in which Barks introduced him, "Christmas on Bear Mountain," published and set in 1947.
		Scrooge encounters Wyatt Earp, the James gang, and Theodore Roosevelt, whose love of adventure Rosa likens to Scrooge's own.

	Comic creator: Don Rosa
		By elaborating on fragments of Barks stories, he assembled the big series 'The Life and Times of Uncle Scrooge', in which he probed into the origins of Scrooge McDuck's riches.
		In the early stories of 'The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck', he sometimes even redrew some Barks frames, and many of his stories are sequels to the master's stories.
		Considering that Scrooge searched for gold in Klondike in the 1880s, Rosa even went so far as to state that Uncle Scrooge died in 1967, at 100 years old.

		In "The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck" (and all his other Duck work), Don Rosa fully delineates Barks' universe, bringing to it a dynamic, modern-day sensibility without losing a whit of characterization or credibility.
		However, of all his works, "Life and Times" is not my favorite.
		A gripping, breathtaking yarn with all the earmarks of classic Scrooge: the old duck, Donald and the boys head to the earth's core to retrieve a dangerous solvent literally threatening to destroy the planet.

		Like any movie, book or screenplay "The Life and Times of $crooge Mc Duck" went through several stages of developement before it finally became the Eisner Awarded epic that it is today.
		The story of Scrooge ancestors however did not completely please the publisher, who pointed out that it should rather be the story of Scrooge himself than of his family.
		And it is, but unlike in the final version where Scrooge steps out of the canon in the first page Matilda and Hortense play alone in the frame story of the script.

		It also chronicles a few of his more memorable adventures, from a foolhardy attempt to swim across the Atlantic Ocean to a child's birthday party to a stint bodyguarding a lonely, mercurial rock star.
		Just as the series charts Scrooge's growth as a man as he attempts, time and again, to amass financial wealth, so does Rosa map out the mind-boggling details of this massive creative undertaking in informative "Making Of" essays following each chapter.
		The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck is an immensely readable, family-friendly coming-of-age story about a classic character that can also be appreciated as a charming, incredibly meticulously researched fan letter from one creator to another.
