Jon Cato Lorentzen mentioned me mentioning a text book about 
Donald Duck. 
What's the difference between Barks DD and Disney DD? Do you 
mean the last one is more like the cartoon DD? And that's probably
also the same as Taliaferro's DD. Then all the Danish and Dutch 
artists are using the Barks DD. Well, that makes sense, I guess.
What made me not buy the book though, is that it's not a comic
book.

BTW, Jon, your local comic-store is probably the same as mine :-)
Too bad they get the Gladstones so late.

The "new" Fethry story:
>In the frame of this page, there is also written "color: white
>coat".
I've seen this in other stories too, but not often. I did rem-
ember there was something strange with that story. You're right
i doesn't have a code. Strange. Except from Italian stories I 
haven't noticed this with any stories after the early seventies.


Something totally different.
A couple of months ago some Marvel-Disney comics appeared at the
local comic store. The titles are "The Little Mermaid", "Beauty
and The Beast" and "Alladin" (and "Disney Afternoon", but that's
too stupid to diserve being mentioned). What surprises me a bit
is that I thought Disney Comics were publishing these titles, and
now Marvel is presenting them as totally new comics. Did Disney
mess up this too?
Also I think I remember having read that Gladstones magazines are
somehow distributed by Marvel. This isn't mentioned at all in these
magazines. What _is_ mentioned (a lot) is some Barbie-something.

The letter column is quiet funny... there are a lot of kids that 
want what they call cross-overs from other comics. Strange.
I've never wanted to see Woody Woodpecker in a Mickey Mouse story...


Ah, yes. I've been insect hunting. Found a lot of them. Thanks.
