<BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE style="BORDER-LEFT: #0000ff 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px">When you give the readers a<BR>
direct link to the writers and artists, the stories become FAR more popular.<BR>
One of the reasons my work is so popular is, I know, because I was early on<BR>
given the first printed credits after Barks' and I'm still constantly given<BR>
more attention & promotion by the publishers and offered opportunities for<BR>
communication with the readers via texts, etc... so the readers identify<BR>
better and relate to me as a real person... making my work apparently<BR>
wildly, albeit undeservedly, popular.<BR>

Sorry Mr. Rosa, Your popularity is NOT because we know who you are or that we know you to be a "Real" person,<BR>
But because you do Great stories.<BR>
Publishers can promote other stories, but without content, it just doesn't matter!<BR>
