Anonymous asked: I may be behind everyone else figuring this out but... is RGB partly inspired by Gladstone? only after you've got me reading the comics I am starting to see a lot of similarities

and thus we come full circle; hilariously the thing that started me on this mad drowning-tumblr-with-ducks thing was someone asking that same question! but it’s true, amongst the various influences that wound up feeding into RGB there was undoubtedly a generous amount of Gladstone Gander- without the extreme luck, that is. Even if RGB actually started out as something of a parody of my own worst qualities, when it came to refining the personality, body language, outfit and dubious moral standing I absolutely took cues from Gladstone.
