===Gus Goose===
'''Gus Goose''' is Donald Duck's second cousin, and the great-nephew of Grandma Duck. He debuted on May 9, 1938, in [[Al Taliaferro]] and [[Bob Karp]]'s ''[[Donald Duck (comic strip)|Donald Duck]]'' [[comic strip]], before making an animated appearance in the 1939 short ''[[Donald's Cousin Gus]]''.<ref name="lambiek.net">{{cite web|url=https://www.lambiek.net/artists/t/taliaferro.htm|title=Al Taliaferro|website=lambiek.net|access-date=24 August 2018}}</ref> Because the animation studio took much longer to produce a film and worked with a schedule much farther ahead than the comic strip, Gus, like Donald's nephews [[Huey, Dewey, and Louie]] "first saw the light of day" in the animation department, with the comic strip being based on the film that was in-the-works.<ref>''Nemo: The Classic Comics Library'' No. 7, June 1984; p.21</ref> Gus's main personality traits are laziness and gluttony.<ref name="lambiek.net"/>

Within Disney comics, Gus is usually shown living as a [[farmhand]] on Grandma Duck's farm outside of Duckburg. Along with his gluttony, Gus is quite lazy, often doing little if any work on Grandma's farm. He also has a tendency of [[Narcolepsy|falling asleep at random occasions]], sometimes even standing up. On occasion Gus has even shown signs of ingenuity as to finding methods or solutions to make his chores much easier for him and at times even automating them so he does not have to work at all.

Gus made no appearances in ''[[DuckTales (1987 TV series)|DuckTales]]'', but there is a background character in the series, Vacation Van Honk, who looks similar to him.

Gus appeared in the 2000s [[animated series]] ''Disney's [[House of Mouse]]'', as the club's gluttonous [[chef]], speaking only in honks rather than words. He also made non-speaking cameo appearances in both ''[[Mickey's Christmas Carol]]'' and ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit]]''.

The friend and neighbor Gustav Goose from ''[[Quack Pack]]'' is probably not the same as Cousin Gus since there are very few similarities (aside from the name and general size of the character). Some confusion is also caused by the German comicbook version of [[Gladstone Gander]] being referred to as "Gustav Gans" ("Gustav Goose").

In Danish comic book stories, Gus Goose has appeared as the boyfriend of a classy and rich anthropomorphic swan named Cissy Swann.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://inducks.org/character.php?c1=date&c=Cissy+Swann&view=4|title=Cissy Swann - I.N.D.U.C.K.S.|website=inducks.org|access-date=24 August 2018}}</ref> In Italy, a nephew of him named Pepper appeared in two stories.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://inducks.org/character.php?c1=date&c=Pepper&view=4|title=Pepper - I.N.D.U.C.K.S.|website=inducks.org|access-date=24 August 2018}}</ref>
