Anonymous asked: Since pledging yesterday evening I am constantly checking progress and willing the little green status bar to grow. And it's not even my Kickstarter, so I gotta ask: Are you okay? PS: Please don't stress, everything is going to be alright.
aw anon that’s so sweet, and really? I’m okay! it’s funny, I was very anxious before starting, but now it’s out there I just have to roll with whatever happens- which is how I’ve always lived life. Planning things to a fine detail and having expectations has never worked out for me. If the kickstarter reaches its goal, that’s great! If it doesn’t, that’s fine! I tried, and that’s what matters- this is a time when money is in short supply and there are so many important causes to give to I almost feel guilty for running the campaign at all, but I promised I would so that’s what I must do. If things don’t pan out with this attempt, that doesn’t mean the end of things- the world will still turn, I will still be able to make the comic, and there will be other opportunities and methods I can try. Honestly any day that I manage to survive past lunchtime is an accomplishment as far as I’m concerned- so, basically as long as an anvil doesn’t drop on my head I’ll be good. Thanks for looking out for me though you’re all wonderful!
Anonymous asked: I'm seeing a Gladstone-Scrooge parallel. I mean, look at Gladstone bathing in those casino chips like Scrooge with his money. Please tell me it's not just me. Remember what Scrooge said about swimming in money. OMg
Anonymous asked: I've been trying to look him the info with no clear answer but I thought you may know. Is Gladstone’s mom still canonly alive? Random info I've read has his father is probably gone but it's open ended on what happened to Daphne Duck.
My reasoning for this is simply that the Duck Family very often has big reunions and even obscure relatives are included in things like Christmas specials- but we never see Daphne or Goosetave. They aren’t even mentioned in conversation, and this is strange considering how Daphne was so closely related to Donald- in fact, the only stories I know that really feature Daphne in any way are The Sign of the Triple Distelfink and part of the Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck- both showing events in the comparatively distant past.
Anyway, I think when you’re presented with the fact that much older characters like Grandma and Scrooge are still kicking, it leads me to think that something happened to them to remove them from the picture so absolutely (and Barks is pretty much the Go To for duck canon even if the family tree shifted about).
Anonymous asked: I'm sure someone's asked you this already but how do you feel about magicas voice in the new ducktales preview?
I DIG IT also Catherine Tate?! Did not see that choice coming at all and I am 1000% delighted ‘cause that girl is a riot, so yeah whatever her story angle is we have positive evidence that Magica will be able to sound both badass and utterly hilarious which is all I needed.
Anonymous asked: I think reading all your comics late at night was a bad idea because I had a dream where Gladstone was a hitman??? And I'm not sure what to think of it
that is the most concerning and yet brilliant concept dear god
