I think Gilles Maurice has drawn Magica just as Carl Barks
wished he could have in his stories.  I recall reading an
interview of Barks, when he complained that in one of
his earliest stories (Lifeguard Daze, WDC&S #33, June 1943)
the editors made him flatten the chest of the lady duck
Donald was trying to impress.  This meant modifying
quite a few panels!   I read that this story preceeded
the creation of Daisy Duck.
                            Best wishes,     Larry Giver.
