He may be a nice guy, but his drawings are really stiff and cluttered compared to Barks's.

Don Rosa got his start doing strips for his local paper in Kentucky (Captain Kentucky... coincidence?), then in the old Comics Reader in the 1970's.

In the later days of BBS's, he would hang out in national comics message boards, where a young comics fan (me) talked how much he loved the strip in Comics Reader. I didn't have all the issues of that, so he volunteered to send me the trade paperbacks and included an extra sketch...

Definite thumbs up over here...

Don Rosa's pretty great, all right. Has Barks ever been a reason?
