Awesome, they included the Vatican with Latin.

There are latin Disney comics, just like Asterix. Probably more done for general educational purposes than for the Vatican market, but hey, you got to pin the name somewhere (and IIRC, for modern words in Latin the Vatican is often the official source)

Incidentally, the article seems somewhat wrong in attributing the comics that inspired "Dagobert" to the US and Carl Barks. A lot, if not most of these, were Italian originals that got translated into German (pretty well, which at least the article gets right). One could even nitpick the "outselling superheroes", because Phantomias, Donald Duck's alter ego is a thing.

Carl Barks absolutely invented, defined, and developed the character of Scrooge / Dagobert. For decades the _good_ Dagobert stories appearing in "Micky Maus" and the other periodicals on the German market were exclusively from his pen. Later, Don Rosa stepped into his footsteps and at some point in the 1980s or 1990s this second _good_ artist started to appear. He just wasn't ever as productive as Barks, who has left us 6000+ pages of awesome duck stories.

Of course Bark's work seeded a secondary tradition of Italian artists with stories set in some alternative universe Duckburg. They are popular in Germany as well, but generally of lesser importance and historical value.

These matters are very important to some serious people, https://www.donald.org/ ;-)

Not disagreeing, but there are a few other really good (if not great) Duck (and Mouse!) artists in Italy, South America, and other places, including Fabio Celoni, Corrado Mastantuono, and Casty.
