Born in Ostellato (Ferrara) on July 10, 1933, Carlo
Chendi is one of the best and first Disney writers of
the doppio-guerra. He signed some beautifully
illustrated Grandi Parodie such as "Il Dottor Paperus"
remake of the Dr Faust, and with Bottaro the
hillarious "Archimede e il signor Scherzo", or "Pippo
e la fattuchiera" where Witch Hazel desesperately
tries to make Goofy believes she exists.
Later, he did "Paperino missione Bob Fingher", and, in
the early 80s created (together with Cavazzano) OK
Quack, a duck-looking space inhabitant whose space
shuttle, reduced to the size of a money coin, looks
exactly like a coin. So OK Quack is looking for it all
along the stories (he ultimately finds it, but by an
incredible series of events, will lost it again)... a
really original idea which gave numerous memorable
plots!
Carlo Chendi is also a "fan" of Disney comics in
general (I think he is the one who had contacts with
Carl Barks through mails, in the 60s or 70s).
