Actually the duck stories have been published: in Finland - and in most
of the pocket book countries too, I think - End of Days was published in
November and The Deep in February (and apparently they were published
a month later in Poland).

They were both drawn by Massimo Fecchi, End of Days was written
by Rune Meikle and The Deep by Andreas Pihl.

Your guess was right, at least about the duck stories.

Me too.
