In German Disney publications we don't see any articles like this at all. The only
exception are Don's comments on his stories in our Rosa album series. I must say,
I should like to read such stuff more often here in Germany, but I realize that
there is hardly any title, where such things would fit.

One may debate if the latest article in Komix was too analytical or not. I myself
like to see a somehow 'scientific approach' to the area every once in a while.
Then, it is a matter of taste of how deep an analysis you prefer. Anyway, I think
you are quite lucky, that you have those articles in Greece.

And, of course, I am very grateful, that Kriton takes the labour of translating
these articles for us. It must be a lot of work. Thank you very much!

Bye,
Sven
