Okay, in my previous thread, i got a reply from an user who said they wanted to see more, because they were interested in this. So here i am, with another 3 weird facts about Donald Duck and... his family. Yes, his family. I'll start of with that, as i know that Scrooge McDuck has two sisters, of who i know they're both as old as Scrooge need to be. Surprisingly, one of them is called Hortense Duck and is Donald's mother, but she didn't appear in the comics where Donald's nephews, Huey, Dewey and Louie, also are in. That means that Hortense is dead, but the comics don't do things with death... Well... In a christmas comic in 2015, Mickey Mouse and Goofy where going back one century, meet a girl and watch her grow up when they go further in the future each ten years. Unfortunately, this girl dies in 2000 (in the comic). And that was it with death in Donald Duck comics. So how does it come that Hortense Duck isn't in the comics anymore? Don't the people who made her have space or time to put her in the comics? Or is she indeed in heaven? I don't think so: Hortense is Scrooge's youngest sister, and then comes Grandma Duck (Of who i don't understand why she's called like that), and then Scrooge. So that means Hortense should actually be alive...


Another stupid thing: I mentioned in the previous thread that Scrooge is 147 now, so Huey, Dewey and Louie are 79 or maybe even older, then. Because their first appearance was in 1937, in Donald Duck - Sunday newspaper Trip. It's 2016 now... So you know what that means: They're always going to stay as a kid. But what if it was real life? Then they should be immortal. And speaking of these characters getting older and staying what they are: Donald Duck explained in a Dutch magazine how he doesn't get older. An Q&A below:

Q.: "Dear Donald. I've noticed you are pretty old but have no signs of getting older. How does that come?" (Translated Dutch - English)
A: "Well, i secretly borrow Daisy's beauty products to avoid getting wrinkles, but i always lay it back when she needs it." (Also translated Dutch - English)

Okay, Donald likes to use Daisy's beauty cremes and stuff, i see. I guess i should move on to the next one.


In one comic from 1999, a character cursed. This comic was about Goofy getting a new TV, but gets addicted. And Mickey gets trapped in the TV. But the inventor of this TV gets owned by his boss in the comic. (The inventor was called 'Proffesor Byte')

Byte: "But... It's not done yet, boss..."
Boss: "Shut the (****) up, Byte!" (I had to translate this, but the actual sentence contains a more harsh word for an animal's mouth)

I think Disney went too far, because this is just the second worst thing that came in Donald Duck pockets and stuff. The worst thing should be Donald Duck as... A nazi? Yes, there was a cartoon made for that and World War II, but i'll spare you the details.

If you got, again, some facts to tell, you can do so here. Perhaps you found out something weird in a Donald Duck comic/cartoon?
(Number 3 may be done soon, i don't know)

Oh wow...this is amazing facts indeed. I guess I am learning more about Donald duck and his family. I never questioned to do with his mother, but now I have a lot of bunch of questions in my head, being if she is still alive or not...this indeed a lot of weird facts. And I enjoy reading them because I don't think its something known to people. Others I feel need to read this. Thank you so much for taking the time to do another one, and I do hope you get to another one very soon or when you can.
