Finnish graphic artist Jaakko Seppälä created this masterpiece about a decade ago, simulating ten famous cartoonists drawing the others’ characters. Starting from the upper left and working down-and-right diagonally, we have:
- Astérix, by Albert Uderzo (France)
- Calvin, by Bill Watterson (USA)
- Donald Duck, by Carl Barks (USA)
- Captain Haddock, by Hergé (Belgique)
- Batman, by Bill Finger & Bob Kane (USA)
- Fingerpori, by Pertti Jarla (Finland)
- Corto Maltese, by Hugo Pratt (Italy)
- Moomin, by Tove Jansson (Sweden-Finland)
- Garfield, by Jim Davis (USA)
- Lucy Van Pelt, by Charles Schulz (USA)

I also question the abomination that is his Donald Duck. And several of the styles ignore the way the artist depicts children, showing how they draw adults instead. (As far as I know, Peanuts never depicted an adult, so that one gets a pass.)
AFAIK you’re right, altho I’ve seen Schulz’ cartoons before Lil Folks & Peanuts, where he mainly focused on adults. They’re quite good IMO!
