| BIOGRAPHICAL DETAILS: |
Atomino Bip-Bip is an atom which has been magnified and mutated a gazillion times by a machine created by Dr. Einmug. He was created by Scarpa in the Mickey Mouse story "Topolino e la dimensione Delta" (TL 206 - 207, 1959). He can "spit" a beam of mesons that has the property of changing the structure of matter (e.g. he can turn iron into chocolate). His twin brother Atomino Bep-Bep is evil, and joins forces with Pete. He "dies" (gets re-shrunk to atom size, actually) in the final battle of that same story. Bip-Bip, instead, reappears in several other excellent Scarpa stories of that period that is, incidentally, Scarpa's greatest season as a writer. |
