Fighting Saint-Nicholases



Sinterklaas-scenario's worden meestal in de lente of de zomer geschreven om in december gepubliceerd te worden. Dus is het nu een geschikt moment om één van mijn favoriete SinterDuck stories te laten zien.
In dit verhaal wilde ik een scène waar Oom Dagobert maar al te graag in de zak van Zwarte Piet springt, om naar Spanje gevoerd te worden. (En twee vechtende Sinterklazen is natuurlijk ook nooit weg...)

====================

Saint Nicholas stories are mostly written in spring or summer, to be published in the first week of december, so this is an appropriate moment to show another one of my favorite "Sinterklaas" Duck stories.
For non-Dutch readers: the Dutch had their "Sinterklaas" day centuries before the invention of the more world famous Santa Claus. We have the original version of the guy who gives presents to young and old, especially young. He Saint Nicholas, a bishop from Myra and his helpers are a bunch of originally very frightening black guys who will take misbehaving children in a burlap bag to Spain, where they are nevermore heard of.
In this story I wanted to pull off a scene where Uncle Scrooge gladly jumps into the burlap bag himself. (Not to mention two fighting Saint Nicholases...)
