That reminds me - DON: that one-page gag you made for Germany.
Will it be published somewhere else, too, or do I have to look
for it when I visit Germany?

Yes, I was able to buy that album last week. They stupidly
announced "Oolated Luck" as chapter 11 (since it is in the album
right after chapters 9 and 10...).

The back cover had a drawing of Donald and Scrooge in the 313 car,
with Don himself on the back seat (a photograph, still with beard).
The drawing looked faxed, but otherwise very good.

Hm... they could have renamed it to "Keno News" for the occasion...

Egmont already published a followup to this story, somewhere in the
80s. I re-read it a few weeks ago, and I don't like that story.
Maybe Don could do a better job... But then again, this story
would take place 8 years after 1966, which is way after Scrooge
died (in the Rosa universe, at least).

Are you saying they plan to continue that album series after
the last chapter of Lo$? The series is called "Uncle Scrooge,
his life, his billions" so I thought it would be only 6 albums.
