No, it's more generic: I don't like many stories seems to be "forced" to conform to Rosa's "canon".
I always liked the "non-canon" in Italian stories, where the only continuity is the internal one in the (relatively) few multi-stories sagas(like the Sword of Ice, Reginella, to some degree QuQu7, more recently DoubleDuck, etc).
Coupled with the face that while good I don't see Rosa's work, especially Lo$, as the "End All" of Duck stories and canon, like many here seem to do, I find it bothersome how they appear to try "standardising" everything.
I feel like they are going to WAK on decades of tradition and stories for a Nobody from a country that produced very few stories(comparatively) whose stories most Topolino readers never read.
And yes, I take the stand Rosa is a Nobody as far common Topolino readers are concerned. I also don't think too much of his stories, they are good but not stellar and too much WAK happens on-panel, panels that already look busy and over-detailed enough.
To avoid going OT, I won't mention why I think the background gags and detailed panels are a plus in Rosa's stories.
Whoa! So the idea that Rockerduck is the second-richest Duck may have originated with...Mark Evanier?!? That's fascinating.
