As a Scandinavian, I have been reading Kari Korhonen for years already, and I 
can't say anything but: Good choices, Madame.

Second to Barks, Romano Scarpa must be my all-time favourite Disney comics 
creator. But looking at the "modern ones" (as we all know, Scarpa's been active 
for fifty years), I must say that Kari Korhonen, Gorm Transgaard and Don Rosa 
are my favourites (no ranking). Some may react that I've picked two Nordic guys 
on that list, but hey, that's my taste.

But... that was not the question, was it? No... Who do I want to see more of? 
An excellent question. Let's see if I'm able to give you an excellent answer.

Ah, yes. I want to see more of Luiz Podavin (hey, it's 3.30 am here, I'm too 
lazy to check whether I've spelled it correctly or not).

And I wouldn't mind a good source of other Brazilian creators as well, but I 
don't know any names.

I guess my problem is that I'm Scandinavian, so that all the great creators you 
really, really want to have more of, I already have almost weekly access to. 
So, although I must agree on you that e.g. Korhonen is an excellent creator, I 
don't really want more of him than I already get. :-)

Darn. So us people writing stupid stories specially designed to take up page 
space have no chance with the American market?

I've always missed... what's their names again?... I'm not sure, but I think 
one of these men has the catchy name Inspector Creeper. I only know them as 
Inspektør Krøkke and Betjent Bollemo. The inspector and policeman always doing 
dirty tricks to get Chief O'Hara fired so that Creeper can take his job. Am I 
wrong if saying that these two men are not listed in INDUCKS, by the way?

And, naturally... I want to see more Doc Finkelstein and Shrimp.

Oh, and Super Goof!



Enough about mice. Speaking ducks, I want to see more of Scrooge's brother 
Gedeone and cousin Douglas. Especially Gedeone.

I also miss Moby Duck... but I guess he went to Vegas with Ludwig and 
Launchpad? (sigh)

You're not.

Give me your address, and I will put it in an envelope and send it to you. Do 
you take Norwegian currency?
