We ripped off Carl Barks
This is Carl Barks, one of the most celebrated Donald Duck drawers, and maybe comic artists of all time.
He's a legend.
His most famous story is probably "Lost in the Andes" from 1949.
In this story, Donald and his nephews discover the "square people" and their land in the Andes. Everything in this place has the form of a cube. The eggs, for instance.
I've grown up with this story, and I always find it very fascinating. I had to do something with it.
So I took this one page from the story: (Page 12)

...And erased off the heads and the text like this:
And started to send it around to friends and other people, just to see what they could get out off that one page.
After a while, people started to send me really weird stuff. I got surprised of how many different interpretations you could get from the exact same starting point. I decided to make a book out of it, a book with only one page, page twelve.
I'll post a little extract from the book here:
This is the cover I designed, by simply putting all the responses over each other.

Thanks for reading this, and have a nice day.
And if you haven't read "Lost in the Andes", I would highly recommend it.

Such a wonderful article deserving to be resteemed! 🌈 I miss reading comics. Might hit the fleamarket soon :) Thanks for the inspiration
Tanks a lot!
It was an interesting project! I'm looking forward to the next massive collaboration zine :)
An excellent collaborative project. Why not try something similar on Steemit? We love collaboration! 😃
Thank you! That's a good idea, I'll think about it.
That's so brilliant :D

Very cool and interesting - og så på norsk!
Jeg håber at der kommer mere af den slags, så jeg følger dig nu.
Takk! Jeg vurderer å jobbe med Storm P. i neste prosjekt.
