well , I'm new here (greetings from Canada) .
I agree with the above , I'd rather see one good collective
personality than three cliches . Three cliches might be good enough for
Ducktales but not in any of the 'serious' disney comics . On the other
hand , if you have three GOOD characters , then that's excellent !
