The Scrooge in the stories of Barks or Rosa or Scarpa would never do anything trully bad. But, over all those years in my childhood i used to read Disney editions,
i came up with stories (whose creators i do not know and their titles i do not remember) where Scrooge was a real jerk (i tried not to use very bad language,
sorry if i overdid it), almost a villain.
If you have read such stories, share their summaries here (no need to have scans or remember titles and creators). I'm
not talking about those where Scrooge is just avaricious and abuses Donald for his debts, i'm talking about stories where Scrooge is a devil.
The two stories that scarred my childhood disney-reading, that hurt my once innocent soul and made me want to tear the magazine to shreds are those two:
-An alien spaceship lands on Scrooge's money bin's rooftop square. The alien needs some diamonds to refuel his speceship, otherwise he'll never be able to
return to his planet. Scrooge isn't moved at all, not even when the alien decides to selfdestruct out of depression (it was only after realizing the selfdestruct
would damage the money bin that he changes his mind and helps the alien).
-Because of a Donald's mistake, a giant destroys some Scrooge's facilities on an island (i don't remember any more details). When the nephews inform him,
Scrooge only cares about the damage cost. When the nephews ask him whether he'll abandon Donald to be eaten by the giant, Scrooge just says ''yes''.
The rest of the story includes the ducklings' efforts to save their uncle whereas Scrooge ignores them and keeps whining and calculating how much he has to
pay for the damages.
MOD EDIT: Please add breaks to your text, so it's easier to read.
