Freddie the Rascal

A decade ago Egmont asked me to create a new "rascal" character for the Scandinavian Disney Comics (8 panels ),I did severals Birds Characters(I can't find the original drawings)in the end they chose the "Seagull";

Funny enough I've never had the pleasure to draw him in a story,I used to work on the 6 panel comic pocketbook;

Than I saw him on a story drawn by my dearest friend and colleague Massimo Fecchi few years ago(he did not know I created him);

Apparently all the comics fans that have approached me don't know either,it will be nice to know in how many stories he has appeared;

Meanwhile I 've done a sketch of him;

Andrew Neil

A caricature of Andrew neil ,a witty BBC journalist/presenter;

Barack Obama
