Comic relief

Aku Ankka - Piilupart Donald

Walt Disney characters are known around the world. In the vocabulary below you can check by what names some of them are known in Finland and Estonia, and also the terms for different functions in this form of art. Comics are fun to read, and often appealing to the eye. Whether you read them in a koomiksiraamat or watch the cartoon series or piirretty elokuva in the movies,  the traditional style of drawing and animating seems sometimes quite  superior to  today's quick-pace computer animation. Still, the characters remain the same, and they are not just for the kids - it is good and healthy for anyone to maintain some of that childlike mind that is required to get the most out of them!
