José María Millet López, also known as Millet, is a Spanish artist whose career transitioned from jewelry making to the world of comics and illustration. He worked extensively for Disney Studios, particularly with the Danish publisher Egmont, from 1984 to 2010. During this time, he created illustrations for various Disney characters, including Donald Duck, Scrooge, Mickey Mouse, and others, contributing to stories published in magazines such as Donald Duck Junior and the regular Dutch Donald Duck weekly.

Millet’s artistic practice centers on drawing and painting, with a focus on capturing the expressive qualities of iconic Disney characters. His work often involves pencil and ink on paper, producing one-of-a-kind illustrations that are signed and bear the official Disney stamp. Beyond comics, he also pursues painting, expanding his creative expression.

His collaboration with Dutch editors and his specialization in characters like Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse highlight his role in bringing these beloved figures to life through detailed and dynamic illustrations. Millet’s work reflects a blend of his Spanish background and his long-standing involvement in the international Disney publishing context.
