Flintheart Glomgold
Flintheart Glomgold debuted as the world's second-richest duck and Scrooge McDuck's fiercest rival. A ruthless South African tycoon, he obsessively schemes to surpass Scrooge's fortune, matching his miserliness but lacking Scrooge's sense of adventure and fair play.
Dreamed up by the legendary Carl Barks in 1956, Flintheart Glomgold burst onto the page as the ultimate rival to the richest duck in the world β a scheming, relentless foil whose very name crackles with greed and grit. Born in the Golden Age of comics and sharing adventures with Scrooge McDuck, Donald Duck, and the nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie across decades of beloved stories in Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge and Walt Disney's Comics and Stories, he's the kind of villain who elevates every story he enters simply by refusing to accept second place. Spanning over sixty years of publication, Glomgold is proof that a truly great antagonist is as essential to a comics universe as any hero β and for fans of Barks's richly imagined Duckburg, he's absolutely essential reading.

Trivia
- A major animated adaptation deliberately changed Glomgold's origins away from South Africa to avoid apartheid associations, giving his cartoon backstory a materially different history from the comics version.en.wikipedia.org
- Don Rosa expanded the character by inventing Glomgold's Number One Rand, a symbolic counterpart to Scrooge's Number One Dime that has since become a genuine part of the character's mythos.en.wikipedia.org
