Yes, Don Rosa is a legend here for the members of the Duckburg Universe!
We can only hope that, when his eyes improve, he might consider returning
to filling and expanding that Universe! L. Schulte

For the past two decades we Duck fans in America—and throughout
the world—have enjoyed a marvelous renaissance of the highest
quality stories since the vintage Barks of the 1950s.
And we have Keno Don Rosa to thank for that.
How many other living writers of Duck adventure stories have
inspired the reader to utter words like "Amazing story!"?
Don Rosa's stories are truly amazing, both in their writing and their
art.
But now Mr. Rosa's apparent retirement from "telling" stories, as
quietly but as suddenly as a clock stops ticking, has triggered
something fearful. It is the start of an expanding black hole in
the Duck Universe, the early stages of which are only now beginning
to be felt.
It won't be at all like that awful emptiness of content in American
Disney comics that spanned the twin decades of the mid 1960s
through the mid 1980s. Other creative talent will fill the pages of
the Gemstone books as they will continue to churn out foreign
reprints along with those of Barks and Rosa and some others. But
gone is the epic talent that fostered such an exciting volley of
classics as we've enjoyed since that first shot heard around the
world:"The Son of the Sun."
No more.
