Huey’s the one in red (the brightest hue), Dewey’s the one in blue (the color of dew), and Louie’s in green (the color of leaves, which also start with an L), although their colors were less standardized earlier in their careers. According to Quack Pack, their full names are Hubert, Deuteronomy, and Louis according to comic book artist Al Taliaferro, they were named for politicians Huey Long and George Dewey and animator Louie Schmitt. He and his brothers Huey and Dewey are the children of Donald’s twin sister Della their father has never been named or shown. Louie is, of course, one of the hellion nephews of Donald Duck, everyone’s favorite seminude waterfowl. Disney’s House of Mouse/Mickey Mouse Works (She was horrified by my thought process, incidentally.) There is no real canon basis for putting Maximilian Goof and Louis Duck together.Īnd yet…good gravy do I love this pairing.Ī. I was discussing the Disney Afternoon with a friend while thinking of the pairing of Jeff/Byron from the Baby-sitters Club fandom, and the idea of a sarcastic, long-suffering California(ish) boy and a mischievous-yet-sensitive triplet was on my mind I asked my friend which duckling she thought was the most sensitive and she said Louie, and a pairing was born. You have to understand: I made this pairing up. See, there’s a lot of TL DR about to happen here, and I don’t want anyone to struggle through it thinking I’m going to detail a scene where Max and Louie have to snuggle together to keep warm, or pretend to be dating to infiltrate a gay bar, or, you know, exchange more than half a dozen words.
They’re not the same species, there’s not a whole lot of evidence that either is interested in the fellas (although there is some), and though between them they’ve starred in 30 shorts, five TV shows, one theatrically-released film, four direct-to-video movies, and countless comic books, the sum total of their onscreen interaction is probably less than ten minutes long. These are cartoon characters from sources intended almost exclusively for children. And thanks to Walt, even though I doubt this is what he had in mind. I’m so sorry.Īcknowledgements: Thanks to mizzmarvel for listening to my whining and betaing this monster. Notes: Yes, that is Louie as in “Huey, Dewey, and…” And yes, that is Max as in the dog boy from Goof Troop with the purple pants. It’s not like this canon has a strong emphasis on plot, really.
Spoilers: General ones for various shorts, Disney Afternoon shows, and direct-to-video movies, I guess. Fandom: Disney (General – Mickey Mouse and Friends, Disney Afternoon)
