Two years ago, in October 2014, we ran a story on a special issue of Donald Duck published in Norway, in which Magnus Carlsen would be making a special appearance. This was done in complete collaboration with the world champion, who was an unabashed fan of the comic and not only agreed to it, but actively participated in the story development by contributing ideas of his own.
The comic was written by the Norwegian writer Knut Nærum and Magnus Carlsen himself
"You play a bit like Kvakkamura (Quackamura)"
It eventually came out in the November issue of 2014
Exactly two years later, in support of their champion, Norway’s edition of Donald Duck will be issuing a special edition with Magnus Carlsen. It will contain stories that are chess themed, but more importantly that will promote and teach the game to its readers.
The special edition with "Makspuls Clarsyn" will hit the stores on Monday
