New Uncle Scrooge comic book launched by Marvel Comics.
Jason Aaron brings multiverse concept to Scrooge's adventures.
Gyro Gearloose appears as multiversal genius akin to Reed Richards.
Featuring a multiverse of Uncle Scrooges, a first for Disney/Marvel.

Jason Aaron, Paolo Mottura and Francesco D'Ippolito have launched the new Uncle Scrooge comic book from Marvel Comics' main serialised publishing line, written by the man also relaunching Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles right now. Aaron also wrote the recent Multiverse-heavy Avengers run, and it is that which he has carried over into Uncle Scrooge. Or rather Uncle Scrooges.

Uncle Scrooge all up and down the probability matrix. An adventurer in pursuit of profit. Has anyone done the colonial critique of Uncle Scrooge, given that he is hoarding the world's wealth? He makes the British Museum look like someone collecting Pokemon.

And it is a trait, it seems, that is common across the Scrooges. As well as having an irascible personality that is at odds with himself as it is with anybody else.

It's not just Scrooge who has multiversal equivalents either. With Gyro Gearloose playing the role of Reed Richards or Rick Sanchez with a Council of himself.

If you were looking for a proper Disney/Marvel crossover, a multiversal incursion would probably be the place to start…
