It's been 25 years since I created Duck Girl / Princess Cairinini Aix in 1996, in June, after graduating from SIUC (Southern Illinois University at Carbondale). She was inspired by a page from my father's encyclopedia Britannica, where I first saw the colorful Mandarin wood duck & thought how ironic it would be to have a Superhero with such a small name and such an explosive rainbow color-scheme. And the Audacious Duck Girl was designed and labelled Japan's 11th greatest superhero. Later, written as more of a satire as she was born in Jonathan Swift's Balnibarbi and raised in Luggnagg.
