Editing Magica De Spell (section)

===''DuckTales''===
Magica appears as a recurring villain on the [[animation|animated]] television show ''[[DuckTales (1987 TV series)|DuckTales]]'', where she was voiced by [[June Foray]] (using a similar Eastern European accent to that of [[Natasha Fatale]] from ''[[The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show|Rocky & Bullwinkle]]''; in the Italian version, Magica's voice actress, Sonia Scotti, depicted her with a heavy Neapolitan accent). Magica appears mostly in first-season episodes of the show. Although she appears as one of the series' major villains, she is frequently a source of comic relief; for example, in Magica's final scene in the series, she attempts to send Scrooge's [[List of Duck universe characters#Fenton Crackshell|"tin man]] back to Oz", but instead sent herself elsewhere in a whirlwind when a Quackenyeeken Yeeker bird {{not a typo|yeeks}} in fear, causing her jar of magic dust to break open and carry her away. On more than one occasion, her plan to obtain Scrooge's dime backfires so spectacularly that she is forced to work with Scrooge to prevent a greater disaster. According to the show, her brother is [[#Poe De Spell|Poe De Spell]], who was transformed into a raven and serves as her magical familiar&nbsp;– in reference to [[Edgar Allan Poe]]'s poem "[[The Raven]]" – replacing Ratface from the comics. A similar reference had already been established in the German versions of Magica comics, where her raven is called "Nimmermehr" ("Nevermore"), referring to the recurring keyword from Poe's poem.

In the 2017 [[DuckTales (2017 TV series)|reboot]], Magica speaks with an English accent as she is voiced by [[Catherine Tate]] (former ''[[Doctor Who]]'' costar to [[David Tennant]], who voices Scrooge McDuck in the new series). Within the reboot's storyline, Magica has a history with Clan McDuck and a vendetta against Scrooge; he caused her to accidentally turn Poe into a non-anthropomorphic raven and refused to stop him from flying away prior to the start of the series. During a climactic battle atop Mount Vesuvius (a famous setting from Tennant and Tate's tenure on ''Doctor Who'') 15 years prior, Scrooge trapped her physical body within his Number One Dime, though she was able to turn her own shadow into her "niece", Lena De Spell. Throughout the first season, Magica manifests herself as a shadowy specter through Lena and uses her to gain the Duck family's trust to acquire Scrooge's Dime and free herself from imprisonment. Magica eventually regains her corporeal form during an eclipse that occurred in the season one finale, and proceeded to terrorize Duckburg with her dark magical powers. However, she is defeated and forced to flee after being stripped of her powers by the combined efforts of Scrooge and his family in destroying her staff. In the second-season episode, "A Nightmare on Killmotor Hill!", Magica uses a [[telepathy|telepathic]] helmet to invade Lena's dreams and get her to give up her magic amulet, though she is foiled once more and Lena destroys her helmet. In a later episode, "GlomTales!", she joins an alliance of Scrooge's greatest enemies, led by [[Flintheart Glomgold]], in a joint effort to destroy Scrooge and his family. Glomgold ends up losing his fortune, as well as that of the other villains', to Louie Duck, causing the former's fellow villains to turn on him. In season three, Magica regained her powers while helping Lena and her friends fend off the [[Phantom Blot]], whose village Magica destroyed in the past. In turn, she is fended off by Lena, who had gained magical abilities of her own during the fight. Magica appears along with Scrooge's other enemies to destroy him through a court trial, but fails again. Finally in the series finale, Magica and every villain the Duck family have faced were brainwashed by F.O.W.L. to fight the heroes, which was part of Bradford Buzzard's plot to rid the world of adventures. Upon his defeat, Magica is enraged by him using her and the other villains, turns him into a non-sapient buzzard in revenge, and then teleports away.
