Talk:Mickey Mouse universe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eh-uhmm? Is Daisy Duck really a part of the Mickey Mouse universe, more than Donald?
[edit] Mouseton ≠ Duckburg
The city they live in is called Mouseton, according to the comic books under the Disney Comics Imprint. (...) It is also occasionally identified as Duckburg,
Mouseton and Duckburg are two distinct towns. Also, while in Disney cartoons characters from Mouseton (e.g. Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Horace Collarhorse...) and from Duckburg (Donald Duck, Uncle Scrooge, Chip 'n Dale...) are allowed to meet, according to the stricter rules applied by the Walt Disney Company to comics, in nowadays comic books there should be no contact between the universe of Duckburg and that of Mouseton. I hope this helps. :) Hroswith 18:07, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
- "Mouseton and Duckburg are two distinct towns." This is language-dependent. In some languages, such as Italian, they are always different towns ("Topolinia" and "Paperopoli" respectively). In other languages, such as Swedish, they are always one and the same (or at least carry the same name: "Ankeborg"). In yet other languages, such as English, they are sometimes different towns, and sometimes one and the same. The naming of Mickey's home town in English is inconsistent.
