Indiana Goof

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Indiana Goof is a character in the fictional Mickey Mouse universe created by Walt Disney.

Indiana Goof is an archaeologist and a cousin of Goofy. Indiana has a weird habit of not using beds, doors, or stairs. Instead, he sleeps in a tent, enters and exits houses through windows, and climbs floors by a rope. Indiana is fond of a specific brand of liquorice candy (the brand is called "Tuju" in the Finnish language translation), which he never travels without and is addicted to the taste of, but which everyone else finds horrible. Indiana's car is an old jeep which he has named affectionately (Karoliina in the Finnish translation). Indiana has a rival archaeologist, who is greedy and shameless, and not above resorting to criminal behaviour.

The character Indiana Goof was created by writer Bruno Sarda and artist Massimo De Vita in 1988, as a spoof of the film character Indiana Jones.
