I've never heard of this superhero series as I mostly read 
"Picsou" but what I know si that Genius was the main 
character of many back cover gags in Mickey, from the late 
80s up to one year ago, and many "mice" stories. He was 
better than all other mice characters (Mickey or Goofy), at 
least at the beginning. Genius was first a "genius in 
everything" (like Ludwig von Drake), very good stories, but 
after a few years, evolved as a childish and prententious 
"bird" who was upseting Goofy everytime. This unfortunately 
was no more funny.
