I don't know about a Cerebus/Donald crossover concept, but I can definitely 
see Dave Sim doing a "regular" Disney comic book story. Although "Cerebus" 
has been completely drama-driven lately, the book has proven that it can be 
light-hearted and intelligent also.

Light-hearted and intelligent stories are what Disney comics are all about, 
if you ask me!

Really? I'm a Will Eisner fan, but I just can't see him doing "funny animal" 
stories. I'm sure he could do a Disney story, as I think he can work with 
pretty much anything, but right now, I can't see him doing anything for 
Disney. I mean, look at, say, "The Spirit," or "Heart of the Storm"--Disney 
is such a big jump from that.

Eisner's work is always done "diversely," but almost all of his books have a 
prominent style that I can't see working with the Disney Ducks.

But you never know!
