This is a scene from "Tree Trick," a short one-page gag by Carl
Barks which appeared around U$ 30 (I don't have the exact issue number
available right now). Scrooge gets his money past the Beagles by
disguising it as a tree -- a funny gag, marred only by rather poor
drawing of the Beagles on Carl's part (they look about ten years younger
than usual). Harry, can you give us the issue number?

Wak! This is Egmont's reformatted version of I-277 which
Gladstone published as "Andold Wild Duck" in DDA 23! This must be where
Gladstone themselves saw the story, and when they cut it from 29 to 26
pages, they didn't know it had already been cut from 36 in this Danish
incarnation. In fact, now I bet Gladstone isn't aware that there IS a
version of this story coded I-277. They must think their version of the
story only lacks three pages... but it ain't necessarily so!

The following article was published in the Editor's page of Aku Ankka
today:
--cut 8<--- (I've always wanted to write that :)
Many of the readers of Aku Ankka have asked to see the face of the American
Favourite artist Don Rosa. We hereby make true this wish: to the left you see
mister Rosa drawing ducks in the Swedish comics festival last november. The
photo was taken by Klaus Dejler from V}rby.
Rosa, whose family comes from to Northern Italy, now lives in Kentucky. He
was born 1952. He has the training of an engineer and before he got into comics
he owned a building company his grandfather had founded. Don Rosa begun making
Duck stories 1987 and ever sincehis popularity has risen steadily among the
readers.
First time Don Rosa was published in Finnish was in issue 1/1990 of Aku
Ankka translated by Markku Saarinen. Most of the Rosa translations are however
made by Jukka Lindfors.
With some luck all you Rosa fans might have an opportunity to meet your idol
face to face by the end of the year. We are negotiating of a chance of having
Don Rosa to Finland next October. So let's all keep our fingers crossed to make
sure the trip will happen. Welcome to Finland Mr Rosa!
--cut--
Well, I gotta say you didn't look anything like I thought. I also
thought there was no chance of you coming here any time soon. Well, you'll
always be welcome here.
You once said you thought Egmont publishers don't put the names of
the artists anywhere to be seen but now there has been some change to that:
Old works of Carl Barks (and one story made by Paul Murray) have the text
"A sample of Carl Barks' (or Paul Murray's) work from the year 19xx". There
hasn't been anything like that on your works but the Editor's corner sometimes
mentions what have been made by you and your style is quite personal.

Marvel Disney implosion: further data
Message 113 -
1995-05-23 at 13:32:58
Hi, folks.
Since I get the feeling few folks on this list also get the Disney
TV mailing list or "ranger-list" (which, as I've said before, I'm not a
member of, but am able to ftp from an archive), I thought it would be to
everyone's benefit if I posted the following information, excerpted from
a letter by the ranger-list's Ed Rudnicki. Ed, if you're also on this
group, you'll notice I've de-abbreviated a few comics' names so that
things would be clearer to some of our foreign readers here.
* * * * *
"[According to Marvel Disney editor Hildy Mesnik] GARGOYLES will
stay a monthly series. All the rest of the [Marvel] Disney titles will
be condensed into a single title. DISNEY'S CARTOON HITS ... is likely
to be [the name of the comic].
"The monthly series [that exist now] will have at least two more
issues each, with the transition likely in August ... [DISNEY'S CARTOON
HITS] will have THE LITTLE MERMAID, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, ALADDIN, THE
LION KING, and possibly POCAHONTAS. The DISNEY AFTERNOON title is the
least popular [now] and likely won't get put into the rotation until
next year.
"[Marvel's] Disney titles [do] quite well for the genre, but not
very well on an absolute basis, compared to the ... superhero titles
that are Marvel's stock in trade. Hildy complained that their biggest
problem is a lack of exposure - people don't know the titles are out
there. They do get a very favorable response from those who are aware of
them .... The Marvel "business" people like the cutbacks, but the
creative and editorial groups are demoralized by them."
* * * * *
And so's Disney, I expect (I personally doubt Marvel will keep the
features-characters license in the long run). The complaint that
"people don't know the titles are out there" is no surprise to me.
Marvel's "business people" push them as kids' titles [regardless of any
virtues or faults they may have], so they receive little discussion in
the various comics publications. Once again, the brass that's
responsible for the problem appears not to recognize that they might be
the ones at fault.
With Gladstone, the reason that "people don't know the titles are
out there" is, as far as I can figure out, the fact that Gladstone
doesn't advertise. The comics media reviews Gladstone's stuff very
favorably when they actually hear about a project early enough to jump
on the bandwagon and discuss it. Also, Gladstone doesn't send
review-copies to comic journals like other companies do, from what I
understand.
A postscript: my local comic shops back home in Santa Barbara
don't order droves of Gladstones (about 8 copies each), but the Marvel
Disneys -- after an initial demand -- have begun selling so badly that
the shops order only about TWO copies of each of them.

"Guardians of the Lost Library" was published in Holland in
DD Extra #5. The art is of the original Egmont version, but the translation
is from the Gladstone version, or so it seems.
The new cover is clearly inspired by the cover of Gladstone's comic.
They re-inserted a JW logo on the books and in the first panel. Since
Junior Woodchucks is Jonge Woudlopers in Dutch, they only need one W, not
two (so the logo looks a bit like vJv).
Don, you once mentioned textual changes (apart from cutting two panels and
inserting three other panels) you did for Gladstone's version, but the Dutch
version is very much like Gladstone's (except in the changed panels, of
course).
That's why I think they translated directly from the Gladstone version,
leaving the JW logo gag intact.
In two weeks, the Duck Family Tree will be published in the Dutch DD weekly.
From the announcement I can see that they REDREW the entire tree! Someone
must really dislike your art... 8-(

I am an Italian cartoonist, and also a text-writer for the Walt Disney co.

of Turin "Topolino e il furto archeologico" been published in France, but
it's all I know).
WD Italy does not make us know anything about our stories... So I ask the
help of the collegues.
My last stories were:
Topolino e il furto archelogico (Mickey Mouse and the archeological robbery
???, with MM, Goofy and some my new charatcters in the Egiptian Museum of
Turin, looking for a Shiva Nataraja statue);
Minni e la radiosa primavera (Minnie Mouse and the shining Spring ???, with
Minnie Mouse and the little nephews, in a story about the origin of the
martial arts style named Wing Chun);
Indiana Pipps e il sigillo Vallindo (Arizona Goofy and the Indus seal ???,
with Arizona Goofy, Mickey Mouse and some my new characters, looking for the
origins of the ancient civilization of the Hindu Valley, walking through
Pakistan and Kashmir.
Now I'm working at a story with Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Minnie Mouse and
others, in the middle age Japan.
Thank you for your attention!
If I (or our association) can help you in some way, please contact me.

Any suggestions in what we should put in?
Knut and all:
A few of you has asked about my E-mail address. It is
egil at telepost.no. I use a machine at the place I work, and Egil
Pettersen is my boss. No problem to send letters, as I am the only
one who knows how to use Internet here.
Some has written and complained about the Norwegian translation of
different stories. I do not do them all!! Actually, most of my work
is to give the translator details he or she uses when the actually
translation is done. Also, I make one page every fourth week or so in
our Danish and Norwegian weekly magazine. This is called "Visste du
at", and gives facts etc about life in Duckburg, some of the stories
or characters, artists etc. Suggestions on what to put into these
pages are welcome!
