Christopher Colombus |
 | | Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa, Italia, in 1451, to a family of wool weavers. |
 | | But we're not told whether the Viking is Leif Eriksson (Erik the Red's son who is said to have discovered America), Olaf the Blue (another Viking from Barks' "The Golden Helmet" who is said to have discovered America in 901, before Leif), or another Viking... |
 | | In the same story we learn that the Templars, who had relations with the kings Ferdinand of Spain and John II of Portugal, sponsored Colombus' trip, because he had to give a crown to the Great Khan, in Cathay (China). |
