Onkel Skrue

Onkel Skrue is the Norwegian localization of Scrooge McDuck, the famously wealthy and miserly duck uncle of Donald Duck, created by Carl Barks. A self-made billionaire, he built his vast fortune through adventure and sheer determination.

Few comic characters can claim a publishing run stretching across nearly eight decades, but Onkel Skrue is exactly that kind of enduring icon — a Golden Age original who has never stopped captivating readers. Debuting in the Norwegian Donald Duck & Co in 1949, this beloved figure emerged from a remarkable creative lineage including Floyd Gottfredson and Bill Walsh, and has since accumulated over a thousand catalog appearances across flagship titles like Donald Duck & Co, Donald Duck Junior, and Donald spesial under the Hjemmet / Egmont banner. Along the way, Onkel Skrue has shared countless pages with the likes of Mikke Mus, Langbein, and Petter Smart — a roster that speaks to the rich, sprawling world this character inhabits. With 22 key issues to their name and a presence that has only grown since 1949, Onkel Skrue is a cornerstone of Scandinavian comics culture and an absolute must for any serious collector of the form.
