Rosa Popularity

[Steve Crooks]

I have to second that.  I got back into comics after a short run of
pretending to be an adult right about the time Mr. Rosa started getting his
work published.  If it weren't for those incredibly fun to read stories I
might not have stuck with picking up the duck comics -- or any other comics
for that matter.  And at the time I didn't have any idea who "Don Rosa" was
and I didn't really care.  I just liked reading those stories.  Now I'm
quite excited to get something new in my comic stack by that Rosa fellow.

When you give the readers a
direct link to the writers and artists, the stories become FAR more popular.
One of the reasons my work is so popular is, I know, because I was early on
given the first printed credits after Barks' and I'm still constantly given
more attention & promotion by the publishers and offered opportunities for
communication with the readers via texts, etc... so the readers identify
better and relate to me as a real person... making my work apparently
wildly, albeit undeservedly, popular.




Sorry Mr. Rosa, Your popularity is NOT because we know who you are or that
we know you to be a "Real" person,
But because you do Great stories.
Publishers can promote other stories, but without content, it just doesn't
matter!
