I'm mortified every time I see those pages. And lest Don be unjustly tarred, yes, I even have to lay claim to that (shudder) "retard" line.<br /><br />But I still wouldn't trade having worked with Don on this (or the many other stupid stories we did as high school collaborators) for anything. We had a ball.<br /><br />But yes -- this was jen-yoo-wine adolescent hubris in its starkest form, and you can believe it's painful for me to look back at from the ripe old age of 64.<br /><br />By the way -- I sometimes still accompany Don to one or two of his American convention appearances every year, so if you ever see me, introduce yourself and I'll apologize personally.Rfoushehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15346449520097645611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5423579092779163824.post-22641081727381672742015-09-28T11:58:54.524-04:002015-09-28T11:58:54.524-04:00If ever there was an example of "loving satir...If ever there was an example of "loving satire", it is this. That second panel of the first scan in this post shows a level of familiarity and admiration for Barks' work far beyond what the casual fan could ever muster. And Donald's hatred for Scrooge and his inner monologue railing against Scrooge's mistreatment of him could easily be transplanted into many a "canonical" Rosa story and not be rendering incongruous by "canonical" Donald's actual behavior in any way. <br /><br />Now, what actually *is* going on with the Disney Comics Forum????Baar Baar Jinxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5423579092779163824.post-53773489058380644962015-09-20T02:54:12.112-04:002015-09-20T02:54:12.112-04:00Great to have you back!

Also they happened to have been born at the same day at the same hospital too. And as Ray was a comic fan, they became good friends. Maybe more interesting is the story about another guy, Dick Reische, who had the originals for this story hidden away in 40 years. And Don Rosa's detective work to try to track him down. I don't have the Fantagraphics collection, but all this is probably written in the autobiography "The Life and Times of Don Rosa" printed in those books too.Hexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01244652285314152842noreply@blogger.com
