Glomgold, Magica, Pig Villain--EVIL?

[Jonathan H. Gray]

heh. This is my first post as well so here goes nothing.

I've never thought Glomgold was evil, BUT I've always thought that he was 
the "Anti-Scrooge" - meaning that whereas Scrooge would not resort to 
devious underhanded tricks (something he did once that haunted him the rest 
of his life with Foola Zoola), Glomgold would have no qualms about running 
people off thier land with guns or getting money by any underhanded trick in 
the book. If the Disney Comics were of a darker nature I probably think he'd 
even go so much as have soimebody killed just to keep his secrets or get 
more money. But luckily the Disney comics dont have to deal with that nasty 
aspect. ;)

Evil is a very broad term thats thrown around WAAAAAAAAAAAAY too often to 
describe any villianous character. Probably the only person who'd come 
CLOSEST to that description would maybe be Magica DeSpell. I've always seen 
her as being the most malicious out of all the Duck villians primarily 
because her desperation would lead her to do ANYTHING to get her hands on 
the Number One Dime.

As far as the Brutopian Spy/Random Pig Villian (Wasn't the primary pig 
villian given the name of McSwine in a few stories?), I see him more of a 
nuisance than anything else be it to Donald or Scrooge. His character has 
always been the "generic one shot villian" thats udes when the big two dont 
fit. I'd like to see his character developed more maybe or other villians 
broiught into the picture besides the Beagle Boys myself. I have to say I've 
grown rather fond of Don Rosa's Arpin Lusene though. :)
