Yes, what you're saying here is basically: "All Italian
artists are bad, because Marco Rota once wrote a story
which showed Grandma and $crooge being brother and
sister."
And I agree: "Since the relationship between $crooge and
Grandma will play an important and crucial role in any
series considering the life of Black Pete, I hereby
declare all Italian artists *utterly incapable* of
respectfully handling our beloved characters, whose
relationships are set in stone, per saecula saeculorum
until the whole Universe ends with a gnab gib."
But I have to admit, Sigvald, that you *do* seem to try
and pick your wordings with greater care and almost
without typographical errors.
And do you see that you're almost the only one here that
can get all upset and worked up about something that
contradicts Rosa? That almost every one else only tries to
convince you that that's allright with them as long as the
world doesn't end with it? Please tell us about the things
you like, instead of about what you don't like. Do you
like Scarpa or Cavazzano? Feel like discussing them?
