Was Casty actually asked by the other creators writing Eurasia Tost? I thought the French did a conclusion to his Atlantis storyline without his blessing.
She appeared in a crossover story with Arizona Goof, and from what I see on the inducks she is also credited to appear in a story written by Stabile.
What is this French thing you ar talking about?
Apparently, the French Disney comics publishers made their own conclusion to Casty's Atlantis storyline with Eurasia, because Casty was taking so long to do it himself. I doubt that happened with Casty's personal blessing.
(I haven't read it, by the way, nor have I read the last chapters of Casty's Atlantis saga.)

Is it on the inducks? Normally the French publisher does not do stories.

Huh, maybe I confused it with some other country. I know someone on this forum said SOME publisher chose to do its own conclusion to Casty's Atlantis saga, and I was relatively certain it was the French that was mentioned. But perhaps not.
Ha! David beat me to it by 17 minutes! Even as he wrote this message, I was working to get onto Feathery to post the story data. I lost time trying different usernames for Feathery... I knew my password. Normally I don’t need either one, but my laptop is out for repairs and I have to do this on my phone! I have this story—I do like the fact that Minnie and Eurasia get along perfectly well, and there’s no stupid jealousy on Minnie’s part re: the time Eurasia has spent with her boyfriend. They’re just happy to be adventuring together, while Mickey is off in a spaceship with Eega.
The French absolutely do produce their own stories; just not that many in the past ten years.
Unless I'm mistaken, it's more drastic than that. I've been told by an insider (whose identity I will withhold as long as I don't have their authorization to name them) that Disney France has actually stopped producing its own comics a few years ago. Its started in 2009. The only exceptions are "Mickey Enigme" and "Les petits boulots de Donald" one-pagers. I also know that some longer stories have been written and bought, but remain unpublished because of that.

Also, I was going to mention: there are two female Duckburg characters who were created recently by a particular writer and have been reused by other writers. Rosie the Riveter was created by Dave Rawson, and Amanda Fox was created by Maya Astrup. Both of these characters have been used by Lars Jensen, who of course has given cameos to a slew of minor Barksian characters. And both were also used in a single story by Rob Klein and Jan Gulbransson, The Blackest Valentine Day. I appreciated the fact that they didn’t just invent new one-shot characters but actually looked for and used characters that had already appeared. Oh, they also used Strobl-drawn Dora.
Yeah, everything belongs to Disney at all. And that means something.
I don't want to get too political, but in my personal opinion, copyright is an antiquitated social construct invented by imperial-colonial straight White male capitalist slaveholders, to create pointless scarcity and keep the means of education and imagination artificially out of reach of working class people of colour.

Education and imagination are not copyrighted.
Also, I do not think that the 'straight white males' that introduced the notion of copyright in the various European cultures in the late middle-ages/early 16th century were conspiring against a non-existing working class from four century in the future. They invented copyright, not time travel.
Finally, why North Americans (I hope you are are this point) are always putting skin colours in every damn discourse even when it makes no sense whatsoever? I assume that you are young, but you should pay attention to what you right down.
If you've got 42 minutes, the most comprehensive and sensible view on copyright I've ever seen was made by Tom Scott.
I should like to talk politics, but rather elsewhere on the forum.
I respect the need for intellectual property, but I also recognise that in a world without piracy we wouldn't have got The Pirates of Penzance. That's a genuinely tough call.
Definitely, definitely. I'm not entertaining the notion that he'd any royalties from the Disney stories themselves.
What I mean is, does Disney "own" the Black Knight now? (Or the Temple plotline from "The Son of the Sun", or any other one of the ideas he lifted from his earlier non-Disney Lance Pertwillaby stories.) Rosa chose to include preexisting characters & concepts, whose copyright he owned, in his later Disney comics. Does that allow later Disney creators to also use those concepts and characters, without asking him?
Technically,probably not, but sucha situation might be very tricky, and might require a lawsuit and a judge's ruling. I would steer clear of trying to use any of Rosa's story elements because he may have used them in self-copyrighted literature before his start with Disney, There are lots of Disney characters and settings from which to choose before risking problems. But, I'd rather just invent my own new ones, and maybe re-introduce a few favourites from Barks.
The new Ducktales used Universal Solvent as an easter egg, they might be planning on using The Black Knight too. If that happens I feel more comics artists might start to use the character too if it’s not only Rosa’s. I doubt there would be any legal issue but the editors of different magazines might be more reluctant if they know the artist would not like the idea.
