But Don Rosa didn't write that quote, so I don't see the problem.
Btw, why do you think depression of Scrooge is Rosaish?
Stephan wrote:Both Barks' and Don Rosa's Scrooge gets depressed sometimes, i.e. when his money falls in a deep cave, in Christmas for Shacktown.

And none of that is done directly by Rosa. When John lennon got shot by his fan, it wasn't Lennons fault, right? So when Don Rosa-fans take dicisions that work out bad for Barks, it's not Don Rosa's fault.

How about your Rosa?

Barks didn't point out the exact date of scrooge retirement?

Scrooge indeed seems a bit depressed in his first story. "Me - I'm different! Everobody hates me and I hate everybody!".
Stephan wrote:That it's not exactly Don Rosa's fault, I think.
I.e., the Magic Hourglass story got changed because Don Rosa saw it as fictional fiction, but I'm sure Don Rosa wouldn't want the story to be changed. It's the editors who decided that Barks' work should suffer because of something Don Rosa said.
