Il mio amico Didier Ghez è stato così gentile da scrivere quanto segue sul libro sul suo blog:
"Alberto Becattini è il massimo esperto mondiale di fumetti Disney (con David Gerstein) e il suo libro rappresenta la storia definitiva del fumetto disneyano nel mondo. Un "must " che riempie un grosso vuoto nella storia del mondo Disney".
Se lo comperate, vi prego di farmi conoscere la vostra opinione attraverso la casella di corrispondenza presente nella home page del mio blog.
Buona lettura,

My friend Didier Ghez was so kind as to write these words about the book on his blog:
"Alberto Becattini is THE worldwide Disney-comics expert (along with David Gerstein) and his book is THE definite history of Disney comics around the world. A 'must have' which fills a huge Disney history gap."
