Micky Mouse has seen a glimpse of a terrifying possible future, and now only he can stop it from coming true. Micky, Minnie, and their friend from the future "Eega Beeva" take an amazing journey into the future - a globe-spinning adventure filled with giant robots, mysterious organizations and high-flying hijinks! But will they be in time to stop a villain that rhymes?
World to Come begins with a band of scientifically advanced explorers discovering Base 3, a long forgotten outpost of super secret technological development. This one, they declare with amazement, hasn't been abandoned. In fact, a pair of elderly engineers runs out to greet them, elated that their endurance and fortitude over the past 30 years has paid off - their work hasn't been forgotten. Unfortunately, it becomes clear, quite quickly, that this band of explorers isn't what it seems to be. Trouble is afoot.
Casty, stage name of Andrea Castellan, was born in 1967 and started making comics in 1977. He wrote (and drew) his first Disney stories when he was only 10 years old, on his school books. Then he handed them out to his fellow students. His friends were enthusiastic - every week they were waiting for a brand new story, just like it was a real weekly Mickey Mouse magazine ("Topolino" in Italy).
Professionally, he started writing comics in 1993 for "Cattivik", a monthly comic book for kids, which is very popular in Italy. His first story was published in 1994 and, so far, he has written (and sometimes drawn) about 200 stories for Cattivik. In 1999, he started writing for another famous Italian character, "Lupo Alberto", and in September 2002 he finally started working for Disney Italia.
When he came to Disney, he found his new colleagues were not very enthusiastic about writing Mickey Mouse stories and almost all of them preferred writing Duck stories. He thought that was a pity - Mickey was so lovable! He had in his mind those wonderful stories by Romano Scarpa and Floyd Gottfredson. To him, that was the "real" Mickey; always ready to get into adventures, with that sort of naive sense of wonder that was actually lost, in recent years, when he was turned in that sort of know-it-all detective. So, He started writing stories for Mickey Mouse. The editors really liked his stories and his colleagues liked them too.
Nowadays, many other writers take care of Mickey, so he finally gets the chance to rest as a writer and dedicate himself to drawing.
