Yeah, this could be done better and would still send a message without unnecessary exaggeration.
Are you suggesting that Scrooge McDuck's net worth is less than $310 quadrillion? Second question: how do you know?
Bro, it's a comic. They're not trying to send a message, it's supposed to be ridicilous.
I mean, THE main character traits of Scrooge McDuck are that he's stingy and absolutely ludicrously filthy rich.
being a billionaire is already filthy fucking rich.
let's replace it with everyone's most hated cunt, the Muskrat estimated networth at 225 billion.
let's say he loses a million every minute, which is let's be honest still a shitton of money, literally life-changing for at least 95% of the planet.
well at that rate of losses 1 million every minute
it would still take him 177 days to lose all his networth.
increase it to 1 million every hour, which is still a very good rate to be losing "money" and it takes him 29 years to lose it.
This is a comic book. For children. Not an economics lesson.
I'd like to see you swim in a giant money bin with less than $310 quadrillion.
It is a comic done for kids. There is no message, except entertaining them and selling comics.
Lol nah, they absolutely have messages and have always had them.
No media can ever be there to have no message and only to entertain. They all have an underlying message whether it's intentional or not because that is how all stories are made comic book or not.
It does get the message through though because it's just about feelings not about some actual danger.
