If you’ve seen Inception, you should get a kick out of the odd, but effective comparison. It reads as if this comic was incepted into his subconsciousness. Although the idea of shared dreamspace and shifting realities has been a mainstay of science fiction for some time, and the life’s work of Philip K Dick, the parallels between Inception and this particular Scrooge McDuck book are uncanny. From the initial heist idea to how escaping dreams work, and much in between, it reads as a blueprint. I won’t go into any more details, because there seriously are quasi spoilers for those who haven’t seen Inception.
