Notes
The origins of this series are uncertain. It is reported to be an Italian series with artwork by Guido Scala, famous for his work for Disney. Scala is reported to have worked in Australia directly for Cleveland on this series. The source of this appears to be Carlo Chendi and Sergio Badino's "Conversazione con Carlo Chendi: da Pepito alla Disney e oltre : cinquant'anni di fumetto vissuti da protagonista" (Tunué: 2006) which reports Scala was born in Turin and moved to Liguria in the fifties before working in Australia and creating Sergeant Bottleneck. In 1959 he returned to Italy and worked for a range of Italian and international publishers before starting to draw Disney characters.
