The term Hood can be divided into many sub-groups spanning from the straightforward occurrences of garment details to the more indirect occurrences, in which the term has a non-physical meaning. Carl Barks used hoods - in graphics and in words - in several of his Disney duck comic book stories and some examples are presented below. They have foremost been taken from the latter group, which are more interesting from a linguistic point of view because they sometimes give surprising meanings. You are only shown one example of each 'hood' although there are plenty to choose from.
