NO! NOT DON ROSA!!
Nov. 9th, 2010 03:37 pmI just found out that the man who wrote and drew my favorite comic book is losing his eyesight:
I had the good fortune to literally stumble on Don Rosa at Comic Con about 5 years ago. I had no idea he would be there. I went to his booth simply because I saw Scrooge books there. He asked me if I wanted a drawing and I didn't realize who he was until I looked down at his Convention badge (I had no idea what he looked like until that moment)!! I was so dumbstruck that I was barely able to mutter out a request for a picture of Scrooge (looking back, I wish I had requested a picture of me as a Duckburg citizen). He made this for me in about 3 minutes...

BTW, this should be a lesson to everyone reading this who currently wears glasses. I know I'll never skip my regular eye exams again!
