re-read that "sorcereress's apprentice" and have a few questions! first- is that bit with Scrooge talking about scaling stormy mountains and making wonderful mistakes in the beginning foreshadowing? and second- that list of things that Gladstone says he's summoned, I recognise the tidal wave and the tornado, but did he really summon a meteor in the comics?
hehe! thanks for noticing that foreshadowing, it was definitely on purpose, and yes! he actually causes a meteor to fall in more than one story (there’s one where he’s conned by Donald into buying land that has no gemstones, and a meteor made of diamonds falls right onto his patch), and there’s this Carl Barks classic where he’s got to boil a pint of water in as short a time as possible;
there’s a couple of stories featuring him and shooting stars/meteors, which I guess figures, what with the whole wishing thing
