Zkuq said: @JWeinCom Yeah, I know what he's like. It's not exactly a glorious representation, but I'd argue that this hardly does any harm to anyone. He probably barely got any attention before this, and my personal experience is that I don't remember paying any particular attention to him as a child (beyond him being a zombie, of course, which felt like his dominant feature by far to me). I have some understanding for e.g. some concerns about certain traditions involving poor representations, but this seems like excess caution. Well, I guess it's not necessarily excess caution, since there's a non-zero chance this could've caused an outrage at some point - which is actually what I have an issue with, and Disney acting on it is just a symptom... Oh well. |
There's also really zero benefit to publishing anything with this character. How much money are they generating off of reprints of 20+ year old Donald Duck comics? How many people that are buying them will now refuse to because these issues are missing?
So, you're in charge of this whole thing now. You can decide whether or not to publish it. Can you think of a financial (talking dollars and cents here) reason to republish these? Cause, if anything, this is a symptom of capitalism, which I generally favor.
