It's already superior to the original because they finally nailed Scrooge's personality. In Ducktales, Scrooge was a complete wet blanket, a nice old grandpa and wide-eyed idealist who liked treasure and adventure. His greed was downplayed to a ridiculous degree to make him more likeable to dumb kids.

In the comics, Scrooge is a total hardass, viciously independent and carrying a sharp wit. He's quicker to anger than fucking Donald. His greed, distrust and lack of priorities are portrayed as immense flaws which makes him not only funnier but also more tragic and his eventual care for his nephews even more satisfying.
