Letti
Debuting in the pages of Donald Duck & Co back in 1961, Letti is a Silver Age creation with Scandinavian roots, brought to life through the collaboration of Elisabeth Skaare and the legendary Carl Barks. Over an impressive span stretching all the way to 2026, this character has accumulated nearly 200 catalog appearances across beloved Nordic publications like Donald Duck Junior and Carl Barks samlede verk, proving a quiet but genuine staying power that few characters can claim. Letti keeps lively company with the likes of Petter Smart, Langbein, and Bestemor Duck, placing them squarely within a rich tradition of Scandinavian duck comics storytelling. With two key collector issues to their name and six-plus decades on the page, Letti is exactly the kind of deep-cut discovery that rewards fans who venture beyond the mainstream into the wonderfully expansive world of European Disney comics.
