I have an image of the great Disney artist, Don Rosa, hunched over his drawing table, working in a brilliant pool of light, losing track of night and day. He hasn't slept or eaten for days, and his face is pressed close to his work: "I must . . . get . . .more detail . . . I must . . ."
No one, ever, put more in a comic panel than Don Rosa. His pages are like the insides of some finely jeweled watch. Here is a sample of his legendary work, The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck. Rosa wrote the story as well, and his scripts are on a par with his art. What can one say? Gaze in wonder.
This is from Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge No. 290, February 1995, and it goes out to two friends: Sebina of Classic Maiden, and Lolita of Lolita's Classics, both of whom requested some of Mr. Rosa's ornate stylings. All scans are from my own comic. Just click the image for the big picture.
