  (Note: for those who care, that means that the German MICKY
  MAUS #1-2000 will have a different Kalevala cover that I drew just for that
  issue... I guess it won't appear anywhere else. Well... maybe it might be
  used when the Finns reprint the Kalevala story in their AKU ANKKA weekly
  next year... and, another note -- at that time I will *add pages* to the 33
  page story to flesh out the parts that I unavoidably had to truncate to fit
  into that page-count. I estimate it will end up at just below 40 pages.)

What was that? You are going to make another seven pages and only the Finns
get to see them?? Howl and anguish - cannot someone talk somebody
into making an English complete copy - or at least a Norwegian one?!?
If that story had any fault, it was that it was too short. Great work, Don!
And I repeat my comment on the translators, on the whole he did a
very good job.
