Unfortunately, bad news for all comic book fans, the genius artist for Disney comics, Maximino Tortajada Aguilar, passed away last week. He is from Spain and is the brother of the equally brilliant artist José Miguel Tortajada Aguilar who is also an artist working for Disney and Egmont editing Disney comics. While José Miguel worked more on Mickey Mouse comics, Maximino Tortajada Aguilar worked more on Donald Duck comics combining various styles depending on the publisher and given outcomes. He was born on 24-X-1961 in Barcelona, ​​and he started his career back in 1980 and continued his career until this year. He also drew on the OG Ducktales comics, Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers, Talespin and other Disney cartoons that made it into the comics, as he also drew for Egmont drawing for Dutch and Scandinavian comics. He is certainly one of my favorite artists and it is a great shame that he left us on August 20th of this year. Unfortunately, there is not much information about him, except on the Lambiek encyclopedia, and I learned about his death on the Inducks Discord from a friend of mine as well as here: https://www.tebeosfera.com/autores/tortajada_aguilar_maximino.html

lso bad news for all fans of Disney (Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck) comics. Yesterday, the genius artist for Disney comics, who did commission art, Sergio Asteriti, died. He was born on February 13, 1930 in Venice, and began his career in 1952. "Sergio Asteriti was born in Venice, and studied at the Scuola di Magistero d'Arte, section Publicity. In 1952, he moved to Milan, where he was employed by the advertising agency S.P.I.N.T.A. The agency folded two years later, and Asteriti turned to comics. He made his comics debut with the 'Bingo Bongo' series at the publishing house Alpe in 1955. He soon expanded his activities and did illustration work for various publishers and magazines. Asteriti joined the art studios of Roy d'Ami in the late 1950s. There, he drew for the British Fleetway agency ('Fun in Toyland', 'Freddie Frog', etc.) and for Il Corriere dei Piccoli, where he took over the 'Formichino' series from Roberto Sgrilli.

Asteriti has been an artist of Disney comics for Topolino since 1963. From 1974, he also took on the writing of Disney stories. He has mainly done stories with 'Mickey Mouse', but also other characters, such as 'Uncle Scrooge', 'Super Goof', 'Gilbert', 'Tanti Auguri', 'The Prince and the Pauper', 'Indiana Pips'." Taken from the Lambiek encyclopedia. He certainly contributed a lot to the Mickey Mouse universe. He died on August 27, 2024. Kudos to him for his truly outstanding work! Rest in peace! Amen.

Those were really good Football team headcanons 👏 I think each one you mentioned fit great with that sports team.

Could you please share more headcanons about the other characters’ fav teams 👀?

Oh, I love this.

Ok, I think not all the characters would be a football fans. So, if is not in this list, they don't support any team, or don't care about the sport.

Webby - Liverpool

It was hard for Webby, her grandma is an Aston Villa fan, her hero is a Celtic fan. Which team should she support?

What moves Webby is love, dedication, passion. And it was the passion the Liverpool fans show what make her a fan herself.

It was a secret, until she found out Donald is also a Liverpool fan. Just another thing to bond about for them.

Huey - All of them

Huey loves his family and friends, so he can't take sides. He supports all the teams, depending on the circumstances.

Dewey - Manchester United

The second Dewey found out that Della was a Manchester fan, he took her side. You know that's a Dewey thing.

Sadly, he forgot that Manchester was on downhill since 2014. He has to watch the Europa League and begs that next year will be better.

Louie - Liverpool

All the triplets were Liverpool fans thanks to Donald. When their circle grew, Huey decided that he wanted to support all the teams, Dewey took Della's side, but Louie stay by his uncle side. Donald made him a Liverpool fan, he will stay a Liverpool fan.

A bit bias for Donald and Louis relationship? Yes. Always.

May & June - Liverpool

Just like their brother, the twins wanted to follow their dad. Easy.

Violet - Internazionale

Violet was never that interested in football. She knew the basics, the big tournaments and big teams. But then, she got a sister.

An italian sister.

An AC Milan fan sister.

And Violet knew what she had to do, and became an Inter fan. Just to get under Lena's skin. That's such a sisterhood thing to do.

Gosalyn - Borussia Dortmund

One more that has her focus on passion. Gosalyn in 2017 is a latina, but her last name has a bit of german flavour. That's where she found her team, a team who's rebel and loyal.

Perfect for Gos.

The last game of the 2022-2023 season broke her heart.

B.O.Y.D. - Real Madrid

Sweet baby B.O.Y.D. has a whole world to discover. He spends most of his time with the rest of the Team Science, so he listens to Fenton's stories about a team that can make miracles happen, a team that doesn't know how to give up, and their victories can only be described as epic.

Yes, Fenton's influence turned B.O.Y.D. in a Real Madrid fan.

Real Madrid bias? Of course.

José - Flamengo

I asked an expert, @fantasticenthusiasttale, for this one.

She told me that José Carioca lives in a neighborhood in the city of Rio de Janeiro called Vila Xurupita, which has its own soccer team, Xurupita FC. He even played for them.

But, her headcanon is that José is a Flamengo fan. And who I am to disagree?

Panchito - Necaxa

To tell the truth, I know nothing about Mexico football. I stared at Panchito and said, this is the face of a Necaxa fan.

So there you have it.

Gladstone - Manchester City

The notorious freeloader Gladstone Gander of course is a Manchester City fan.

He knows nothing about the team's history, but when he found out the team has a almost bottomless wallet, he became a fan.

Matilda - Rangers

Like Violet, Matilda began supporting Rangers only to get under Scrooge's skin.

With the time, she actually became a passionate fan who enjoyed going to the games. She and Scrooge have been in many Old Firm (Rangers vs Celtic) games.

When the team was sended to the 4th division, she went to every game until Rangers returned to the Scottish Premiership.

Ludwig Von Drake - Rapid Wien

In his youth, professor Von Drake enjoyed seeing the football Rapid Wien showed. A team for the working class, who fights day by day.

Von Drake was happy to see that Rapid still was the most successful team of the country.

But professor didn't see with good eyes the grow of Red Bull Salzburg. A team born of a corporation, who denies its own history.

Von Drake awaits for the resurgence of Rapid.

Mark Beaks - Inter Miami

When Messi signed with Inter Miami, Mark Beaks flew to the city because he knew that was buzz worthy.

That's the only reason he has to go to the games.

This was so much fun. Thanks for the ask @ducktales-and-ducks, sorry I couldn't finish this one earlier.

My first days at Esic University.

My first two working days at Esic University are now over. We were ‘literally’ welcomed with open arms by our supervisor José. We are working at a desk together with 20 more Esic employees. José gave us the task of creating a large Excel file containing all the data of schools in Europe and Latin America. This is because Esic Valencia wants to attract more students to their schools. It is a task with a lot of research and requires complete concentration. Lucius, Milan, Jorre and I are really looking forward to successfully completing this assignment. If you want to stay updated on how our assignment is progressing, stay tuned!

Sanremo 2023 personal highlights

Our President of the Republic was present the first evening he is so cute!! (for those unfamiliar he and the prime minister are different people, he has a similar role to the king in Sweden/NL etc, but gets elected and serves 6 years, he is very much beloved and got a second mandate)

Anna Oxa screaming got included in the screaming people meme 

Blanco had technical problems and decided to destroy everything 

two songs were called Polvere (dust) and Cenere (ash)…

Gianni Morandi (co-host and old singer) saying ”hey bro” to Lazza and he smiling back hahah 

Old singer/songwriter Gino Paoli (88yr old) started saying whatever he wanted among others, è una gabbia di matti questa qui (“it is a madhouse here”) that the wife of another singer had cheated on him with a group of men decades ago. 

Loved when Sethu went to José (son of host Amadeus) and when Colla Zio made Amadeus say Straguzzo (Milan slang for “cool”)

almost instantly liked Non mi va by Colla Zio whom I didn’t know, I LOVE THEM. Listening to Sanremo songs at work i also liked Polvere - Olly! Gives me energies. and Leo Gassmann with Terzo Cuore, I listened to these 3 a lot the first days

Don’t understand how mengoni’s song got 1st, i liked one line and the rest was not that special to me. Also his cover???

Was however glad Lazza was second, his Cenere was a nice song!! Mr Rain was nice but not too special. It was cute when kids went all on him hugging at the end. Started liking Tananai-Tango like yesterday, (look up lyrics!!) it was actually related to the war in Ukraine as you can see from the videoclip, though it was introduced as any love song. He brought yellow-blue roses.

I started noticing Sethu’s Cause Perse only at the end and loved it!!! mde me run so fast when jogging today morning…. He ended up last but didn’t deserve it. You could say being last brings more luck than like 25th though. Also absolutely loved his cover of Charlie fa Surf.

I really liked covers of L’Amour Toujours by Mara Sattei with Noemi.

More notable entries i enjoyed: Shari-egoista, Gianluca Grignani (love when he sings  E chi sa la verità / Mi dica perché faccio fatica a staccare le dita of Quando ti manca il fiato. 

Coma Cose, Mara Sattei and gIANMARIA’s songs were not bad I guess

Didn’t paricularly like Stupido by Will but he seems a cutie

Prada to present “In the Heart of the Multitude”, featuring the work of four muralists and two illustrators on the walls of the S/S14 Women's fashion show On September 19, 2013, Prada will present In the Heart of the Multitude, a new project in their long tradition of creative collaborations. As part of the environment for the Spring/Summer 2014 Women's fashion show, Prada invited muralists Miles “El Mac” Gregor, Mesa, Gabriel Specter, and Stinkfish, and illustrators Jeanne Detallante and Pierre Mornet, to engage themes of femininity, representation, power, and multiplicity on the walls of the Via Fogazzaro show space in Milan. The concept originated from an interest in the political wall art from Mexican muralists such as Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros and José Clemente Orozco combined with on-going exploration into large-scale wall installations at the Prada Broadway epicenter and other sites worldwide. In conjunction with 2x4, the New York-based design firm and long-time creative collaborator, Prada conducted a global research and commissioned these six young artists and illustrators, known for their distinctive style, color sensibility and approach to figurative representation, to work directly in the show space. The walls were reshaped to maximize the structural variation and provide multiple planes on which the artists could realize their visions.

February 8. 1921 the portuguese Baritone Francisco d’Andrade died in Berlin.

Here a picture of him as Rigoletto and his portrait.

His brother was the famous tenor Antonio d'Andrade. His full name was Francisco Augusto de Andrade E Silva. In 1881 he studied singing under Manuel Carreira, Luiz da Costa and José Romano in Lisbon, but in  1886 he went to Milan, where he was a pupil of pedagogues Miraglia and Ronconi. In 1882 he made his debut in Sanremo as Amonasro in Verdi’s ‘’Aida’’. During the following years he appeared with success first in Italy, then in Spain and Portugal, performing not only at the Teatro alla Scala, but also at the Teatro Costanzi in Rome. In 1886 he made guest appearance at Covent Garden, London as Renato in Verdi’s ‘’Ballo in maschera’’, in which he had big success till 1890, among other things as Germont ‘’Traviata’’, Enrico in ‘’Lucia di Lammermoor’’ and as Count di Luna in ‘’Trovatore’’. In 1887 he sang in Moscow as Telramund in ‘’Lohengrin’’. In 1889 he went with an opera troupe of the impresario Gardini, the husband of the soprano Etelka Gerster, to Berlin. He was so successful there as Figaro in ‘’Barbiere di Siviglia’’, Rigoletto and as Don Giovanni that he took later here his residence. From 1906 to 1916 he was often to be heard at the Berlin Court Opera. From 1891 to 1910 he was nearly every year appeared at the Opera House of Frankfurt a. M., in 1894, 1896, 1901 and 1909 at the Municipal Theatre of Zurich. He performed also in Germany, Holland, Austria, Russia, England and Scandinavia mainly as a Don Giovanni. In this part he counted as unequalled; his amusing representation of the Don Giovanni was painted by Max Slevogt. Also in Salzburg (1901) he sang the role of Don Giovanni together with Lilli Lehmann, Johanna Gadski and Geraldine Farrar. Up to 1919 he appeared on the stage, last only as Don Giovanni. His other star role was Figaro in Rossini’s ‘’Barbiere di Siviglia’’. He controlled a stage repertoire of 56 roles into six languages, under it numerous parts from the area of the French opera (Nevers in ‘’Les Huguénots’’, Escamillo in ‘’Carmen’’, Hoël in ‘’Dinorah’’ of  Meyerbeer, Zurga in ‘’Pêcheurs de perles’’ of Bizet, Nelusco in ‘’L'Africaine’’, Valentin in ‘’'Faust’’ of Gounod, Scindia in ‘’Le Roi de Lahore’’ of Massenet). When Portugal entered into the First World War, he had to leave in 1916 Germany. Then he lived in Portugal, where in 1918 for the last time he appeared on the stage as Figaro in ‘’Barbiere di Siviglia’’. However, in 1919 he came back again to Berlin, but two years later died suddenly.

[ad_1] Luis Figo for Real Madrid (Image: Real Madrid Twitter/X)/ Anwar Ali (Image: EBFC) It’s Kolkata derby day. Ask any football fan in the country, and they will agree that this is the biggest match in Indian football. With a century-old heritage, this iconic clash transcends football emotions – it’s about roots, identity and loyalty. Naturally, with such a rich history comes great responsibility for the players involved. The pressure from fans is immense – everyone is always under media scrutiny. However, this Saturday, while all the players and coaches will be under pressure, one player will feel it the most – East Bengal’s No. 4, Anwar Ali. Central to one of the most controversial transfer deals in Indian football history, Anwar will be in the spotlight in today’s clash. When Anwar steps off the team bus or walks through the tunnel in East Bengal jersey, his heart is bound to race. There’s nearly a Rs 40 crore price tag to his name, and he will be facing the team with whom he previously won silverware. Back in 2000, when Portuguese legend Luis Figo moved to Real Madrid on a record fee of €62 million from arch-rivals FC Barcelona, he was greeted with hostility at the Nou Camp during El Clásico. Furious Barcelona fans, holding placards with dollar signs, hurled abuse at their former star. Lighters, whiskey bottles, plastic bottles, coins, and most bizarrely, a pig’s head were thrown onto the pitch. Every time Figo took the ball for a corner, the noise level rose. Francesc Arnau, a member of the Barcelona squad that evening, reflected in a CNN report: “Never have I heard Camp Nou with this sound against one man.” #KolkataDerby Showdown: Will #EastBengal break their losing streak or will #MohunBagan continue their dominance? What welcome will #AnwarAli receive against his former side? @RohanDC98 previews #EBFCMBSG in @IndSuperLeague 2024-25.https://t.co/ZAplVaYULC — RevSportz Global (@RevSportzGlobal) October 19, 2024   In several RevSportz Live discussions about the Anwar Ali saga, there were mentions of giving him a ‘Luis Figo treatment’ at the derby. It’s not uncommon in world football for players to switch between rival clubs. Zlatan Ibrahimović wore both Milan jerseys. Carlos Tevez represented both Manchester United and Manchester City. Many more have crossed similar divides. In India, the legendary Bhaichung Bhutia played for both East Bengal and Mohun Bagan and is still loved by both sets of fans. But for Figo, the situation was different. His transfer was labelled a “betrayal” by the fans – accusing him and his agent, José Veiga. Figo was a heartthrob of the Calatan giants, their captain who won them the Copa del Rey in 1998 and dyed his hair in the Barcelona colours. His move to Madrid for a humongous transfer fee was not acceptable to the fans. The word “betrayal” has been echoed by Mohun Bagan fans on social media and forums in response to Anwar’s transfer. While today’s security measures prevent fans from bringing dangerous items into the stands, the Bagan faithful will undoubtedly be vocal whenever he touches the ball. This is certain to pile pressure on Anwar, but former player Mehtab Hossain, who has experienced multiple derbies and played for both teams, told RevSportz: “Anwar is a professional, and I believe he will focus solely on the game and deliver for his team. Any chants will likely fuel his motivation to perform better.” This match will be a true test of Anwar’s resilience and professionalism. Players often claim they treat derbies like any other game, but it will surely stir something in the Indian defender as he steps onto the pitch for yet another Kolkata derby, this time wearing a different colour.
