no nether nor other Tongue

to me I like both but I think Mickey Mouse have lost some of its sharm, it seems like the people behind it is getting empty of ideas, where as Donald duch you can make many cool adventures stil becouse you can ether make it into a Scrooge Mcduck story which enriches the Donald universe, or Donald himself is very adventurous becouse he hates to loose, (he is a McDuck also and that explanes it) and you have Papirinic storys which ads another dimention to Donalds charcter,

I feel Micky Mouse sadly have really bad writers and storytellers, a bit to conservative, (he should hang out with Scrooge a bit more) . and that sadens me becouse I really admire Micky Mouse he is brave, and smart,

Donald have been lucky to have three or four of the most innovative comic drawers the last decade from Carl Barks, to Don Rosa to Marco Rota and many others, who have pushed and pushed the storitelling and drawings to a really high level. I feel that these artists are influential to artists outside of Disney as well, i would not be suprised if Don Rosas detaild work have founf its way into other comicbook artists, or Carl Barks adventures have popped into others creative minds

so over all Donald is much better, richer, more adventurous and more interesting character then what Mickey have evolved into, yes Mickey ws first, but Donald have had a more interesting up-bringing and development ..

Never cared for Disney.  Although I suppose Donald is the better of the two because he can't control his temper and doesn't have to wear pants.

Donald Duck - only for Donald in Mathmagic Land - I loved that film when I was a kid.
 
 
anyway:
 
Donald: "Having buck teeth is insufficient grounds for a divorce"
Micky: "I didn't say Minnie had buck-teeth, I said she was fCensoredking Goofy"
What?

Donald Duck - just because he collaborated with the Aracuan:

but a litle honour for Mickey Mouse, this is one of my favourite quotes, it gives me tears in the eyes couse its so beutifully said and meaningfull


"We felt that the public, and especially the children, like animals that are cute and little. I think we are rather indebted to Charlie Chaplin for the idea. We wanted something appealing, and we thought of a tiny bit of a mouse that would have something of the wistfulness of Chaplin — a little fellow trying to do the best he could. When people laugh at Mickey Mouse, it's because he's so human; and that is the secret of his popularity. I only hope that we don't lose sight of one thing — that it was all started by a mouse."[

Hah, I love how in that family tree, they block off the nephews father.

Donald Duck I think (despite loving Mickey growing up), because of Scott Walker.

Also, because this makes me go wut:

Donald Duck. Because Mickey is "Mr. Nobody" in the best case, and a bourgeois character in the worst case, in some of the comic strips with his nephews Morty and Ferdie. There are some great Mickey stories though, by Floyd Gottfredson and other cartoonists.There are also some good old Mickey animated movies.

Donald Duck on the other hand is a real character, with a wide palette of emotions. Also, some of the best Disney animators / cartoonists were Duck - related artists, like Carl Barks (USA), Daan Jippes (NL), Marcus Rota (IT) and Keno Don Rosa (USA).

So Donald it is.
