I never heard of this one (neither the artist, nor the character), and I
thought I knew a lot about Belgian comics...

Moebius is the pseudonym of Jean Giraud. I'm quite sure he's French.

And "Metal Hurlant" is French too.
(and an answer to a not-yet-asked question: Asterix is French; Lucky Luke
is Belgian/French, i.e. the artist [Morris] is Belgian, he started to work
for a Belgian publisher, but later he and writer Goscinny switched to
a French publisher.)

I saw the next characters in at least 3 stories (so you could say they
are 'recurring'):
Brigitta MacBridge, Uncle Scrooge's "fiancee" (she appeared in one of the
last Gladstone Uncle $crooge comics);
Atomino Bip-Bip, an enlarged atom who lived with Mickey for a while.
A lot of Italian stories are reprinted in Holland (and Germany, and Sweden,
and..) in pocket books.

Little chance that Dell/Gold Key or Whitman ever reprinted any Italian
comic. Gladstone reprinted a few, but I don't think Trudy was in one of them.

We now have an Italian subscriber to the list, so I guess he can give
better answers, but I have seen at least Brigitta MacBridge and Trudy
several times. If you're gonna include recurring Italian characters
you should put Rockerduck there as well. He is created by Barks but
Barks used him only in one story. The Italians have taken a fancy to
him though, and use him very often as a rich rival of Scrooge's, much
the same way as Barks and his followers use Flintheart Glomgold.
By the way, what has happened to Italian Disney comics in later years?
The latest thing I heard was that Mondadori lost their license to make
Disney comics and that Disney took over the production themselves, in
the same way that happened in the USA a couple of years later. Is
that correct? What effect did that have on the stories? Did the same
artists, e.g., Marco Rota, keep doing stories, but for Disney instead?

========================================
Hi, everybody.
I'm very enjoyed to be here.
So...now...let's talk about questions and Italian Disney material.
Yes, in 1988 Disney Co. came in Italy and took over everything
but just for NEWSTANDS.
Library market is still under Mondadori.
At the moment Disney is publishing:
- Topolino (Mickey Mouse): a weekly digest magazine (the best selled comic
in Italy, do you know? Over 700,000 copies a week!).
Each issue has over 100 pages but not
all are comic. Usually there are four stories and they are all
NEW stories, written and drawn by Italian people.
- Classici di Walt Disney (Walt Disney's classic stories):
monthly magazine with an average of 200 pages, it contains
reprintings from Topolino with no adds.
- Grandi Classici di Walt Disney (Walt disney's great classic stories):
another monthly magazine with an average of 400 pages and
this also contais reprintings from Topolino with no adds.
- Mega 2000
- Paperino Mese (Donald Duck monthly)
both monthly, I don't know wery well these two series.
I know that two years ago these magazine printed material from
South America (Argentina, Brasil or so) but nothing from Europe.
- Zio Paperone (Uncle Scrooge)
monthly, are printed always Barks stories, with covers and articles
about Barks.
I never saw Italian version of Rosa's stories or anyone's material from Europe.
It's true that in Italy there are many stories starring Brigitta
and some with Trudy. Rockerduck is a very popular character, if in a story
there are not Beagle Boys (Banda Bassotti in Italy) then there is Rockerduck.
And now two very important news:
1)
Have you seen a VERY VERY popular character, created in Italy,
called PAPERINIK? Do you know who is he?
Do you know there is PAPERINIKA (female version) too?
(They are not questions, of course, I know everything)
2)
Some years ago was printed in Italy (by Disney administration) a story where
Mickey Mouse GOT MARRIED!!!!!!!! And bride was NOT Minnie !!!!!!!!
After a week Disney U.S.A. went hangry, every issue not sold were retired
and destroyed.
It's been decided this story will never printed again, in any part
of the world!!
Are you interested about it? Do you want to know more?

A few weeks ago, Dutch Donald Duck containted a Marco Rota story, D-coded.
On the first panel, there was a little copy of the Copenhagen mermaid statue.
I think this was Rota's way to indicate his first "Danish" story.
However, there have been other Rota stories with a D-code... maybe they
were indicents, while Rota is now working for Egmont regularly?
Does anyone know when Rota started Disney comics, and which stories he
made? I know of a few very special stories, reprinted in Holland. Some
about "MacDonald and Little Crack" (England in the middle ages), two
about Donald as a suburban worker, one "Danish" time machine story, and some
more.

Not only looks like, but he *is* Donald, wearing a costume. And, like
Super Goof noone suspects who he is, even though he looks the same and
has almost the same name (Paperino -- Paperinik). In Swedish he is
called St<aa>l-Kalle, i.e., Super Donald!
I've seen Daisy as a kind of super hero to, so I guess that's who
Paperinika is.
Luigi:

That's not so strange. That file is only supposed to be a legend for
the various indexes we have, not a complete list of everyone who's
made stories for Disney, and there are almost no Italian stories there
at all.
BTW, I don't know about him at all.

I have another question for you, Luigi:
I have the impression that all Italian comics are numbered in the series
"Albi d'Oro" (Golden Books). Something like in the USA the Four Color Comics;
they have their own title, but subsequent numbering.
Is this true? Or maybe, almost true (some specials excluded)? Or far from
true (different series with their own numbering)?

Wasn't there a Don Rosa story featuring the Ducks' return (including

(Uncle Scrooge or Uncle Scrooge Adventures, I'm guessing), and number.
Also, is there a "complete list of Don Rosa stories", like the

Sounds like a good idea to me, but you must excuse me for not
participating. I have two good reasons for this. First; I have only
read a fraction of all the stories Barks made during his years as
a comic writer. And second (and even more important); I can never
make up my mind as to which stories are the best of those that I
have read. This is a problem I have with all quality material,
regardless of what kind it may be; books, films, comics, et c. How,
for example, do you judge which is best of a good Barks comic and
a book by Dostoyevsky (provided, of course, that you like both)?
But I would encourage all that don't share my limitations to join
this poll. The results could be interesting!

Sounds like a good idea to me, but you must excuse me for not
participating. I have two good reasons for this. First; I have only
read a fraction of all the stories Barks made during his years as
a comic writer. And second (and even more important); I can never
make up my mind as to which stories are the best of those that I
have read. This is a problem I have with all quality material,
regardless of what kind it may be; books, films, comics, et c. How,
for example, do you judge which is best of a good Barks comic and
a book by Dostoyevsky (provided, of course, that you like both)?
