I think my favorite form of narrative catharsis is in 2017 DuckTales and that it's Dewey's own fault that he isn't named turbo.

Because it's weird that Donald wouldn't fulfill his thought to be dead sisters last wishes even if the names are a bit weird. Unless you look back in Season 2's Last Christmas. Donald clearly knew at the end that Dewey was Bluey, the family members from the future that visited him and Della from the future that one time.

Probably soon after Della disappeared I bet, after looking back on how Dewey was so emotional to child Bella, Donald probably guessed that future family member was his own nephew. But the question remains.

Which one?

Donald had three eggs to look over, and he didn't know which one of the three eggs would be the kid from the future. Donald didn't really have much to go on. He was a kid when he met the time traveler and only knew that their name was something -uey.

Not wanting to break the time line, when the triplets were born Donald just gave them all similar sounding name just to be safe. Thus we get Huey, Dewey and Louie.

So Dewey has only himself to blame for not being named turbo

Italian Disney comics supremacy

These silent panels are so beautiful and impactful.

The story itself is also very emotional (it’s part of the Saga of Reginella) and the ending made me cry.

But mainly I wanted to express my admiration for these panels that carry so much emotion with no dialogue.

These managed to stand out among many other beautifully drawn stories.

Was Scrooge ever able to break the curse that affected his family? 😢

The only curse I know of is the one on Castle McDuck, which came to be because he used discount druid stones, and thus making everyone in his family at that time immortal. Downy and Fergus McDuck, his parents, are immortal, and I believe his younger sister Matilda is as well. By extension, I think that also includes Scrooge himself (debatable since some conversations he has with Goldie do show that he ages and that he's found ways to make himself younger and extending his life). I would assume Hortense, Scrooge's other sister and Della and Donald's mother, is also immortal, although the show never talks about her. (We don't talk about Hortense, no no no.)

I don't think the curse is broken. I think when the Phantom Blot and Pepper invaded Castle McDuck for the Blessed Bagpipes, the curse might have been put on hold but once the Phantom Blot wasn't there to suck out the magic of the druid stones/natural magic around Castle McDuck, the curse continued.

I would like to write a bit about Castle McDuck and perhaps go into the curse and some family history, and I would like it to involve Hortense, bringing in the one family member that Disney wasn't going to address (I was certain they would, and perhaps they had plans if a fourth season was going to happen. Sad DX). I especially want to do a story about the Cursed Kilt of Clan McDuck (There's a Blessed Bagpipes, so there's obviously a Cursed Kilt. Ah, curse me kilts, oh, so that's where that came from lol)
