In the "Der Donaldist" 90 there was the answer to the question
of the nephew`s color.
Since the beginnings of Donaldism it is a question which color
has which nephew. [...]
"The three boys can be recognized by the colors of their caps.
Huey is blue, Dewey red and Louie is green." [...]
"The colors are given by the publisher. If it sometimes should be
wrong, it is because I got just uncolored copies for the translation".
Dr. Erika Fuchs got this information from the publisher, and not from
a delivery from the parallel universe Duckburg is situated in. And as
the publisher is not a medium for deliveries from Duckburg everybody
has to decide for himself if this is authentic. [...]
As none of you (except for me) is a Donaldist, you should be happy
with this explanation. Me- I`m not.

WES:
I don't know about USA but there certainly are lots of Disney fans
under age of ten in Finland. There also are many other comics published for
young readers such as Carebears, Moomintrolls (though it has some more mature
stuff in it) and Barbie. Yes, I had to check my kid sister's closet for these,
but there should be some for boys too. And the reason for the little amount
(=0) of child Disney fans here is the fact that there are very few children in
Internet.

Who's getting 100$ a page? In Italy we get 35$ a page to the Writer and 60$
to the Artist: two people. Not one. And if an artist does all the work by
himself he gets about 80$. Sure, people like Cavazzano or De Vita get more.
Right.
But Sergio Bonelli publisher pays double. At least.
But: please, collegues cartoonists, tell us exactly HOW MUCH do you get!

> ERIK; AND EVERYONE ELSE:
I have searched for the answer to that question (who is HDL's
father) since I was a duckling. And my theory is that he is
Ludwig von Drake. In the cartoon "Donald's Diary" he is looking
up from below a chair when Donald enters Daisy's (or whoever it
is) house. And he looks just the same as Ludwig von Drake, but he
is introduced as the father of HDL. Furthermore I have thought of
HDL and their Junior Woodchuks. They use their "Guidebook" well,
but they also seem to be VERY intelligent themselves. And of
course the children of a very bright scientist have to be bright!
But this could just be coincidence (?). And I think I read some-
where that sir Francis Drake where the original founder of Fort
Duckburg (or something). And everyone who read a lot Barks- (and
Rosa-) stories knows that the Junior Woodchuks used this Fort as
their headquarter. Then maybe sir Francis Drake was one of Ludwig
von Drake's earlier relatives? And that would explain why Ludwig
thought his children would join the Junior Woodchuks, doesn't it?
Maybe not. This is only a theory, but since nobody else know who
HDL's father IS this might be the answer. If anybody has anything
to say against this (OR for it), then do so. Maybe we can found
out the real answer together.

Hi all
I?m doing something on worlds the ducks have found underground, and
have had great help from Davids work. Does any of you know stories
where the ducks find themselves in the middle of the Earth, except
for Barks and Rosas work? I would prefer to know where these stories
were printed in the Scandinavian issues, if possible.
Thanks

BTW, JACOB, if noone answered your question. Gif is a picture

-------------------------
- Donald Duck (D91406, 14 pages). Art by Vicar.
Donald comes into Scrooge's office. He wants to borrow some money
so that he can by tickets to a football (rugby) game. Scrooge is
busy measuring the bonus for loyalty to his employees -- in rice.
Donald promises to give Scrooge half of what he earns that week
if he gets the loan. Later Scrooge finds out that Donald has the
chance of winning a big money prize in a radio contest. There-
fore Scrooge gives Donald the money. Later Donald finds out about
the contest, and fakes a radio transmission to take revenge. Later
he loses the contest.
Not too bad.
- The Beagle Boys (D93169, 6 pages). The art is probably by Xavi.
They plan to steal the ticket money from a cirkus (let's see, how
many times have they already done that?). A little monkey follows
them when they run away. They think that he can steal things for
them. He does -- from a police station.
- Donald Duck (D92137, 8 pages).
Donald wants a new job. He tries to get a job as a seller of a
magazine for real men. He thinks that must exciting. To get the
job Donald tells that he has fought against alligators, so the
editor thinks he's the right man for the job. The editor wants
Donald to come along on some, for the editor, quite natural things
to do, like running a marathon and jumping from a plane. Before
Donald manages to get away, he gets a lot of other exciting
experiences.
Funny.
- Mickey Mouse (D93180, 8+ pages). Art by Ferioli.
Mickey finds a way to break the curse, and everybody is happy.

- Donald McWild Duck (D94067, 12 pages). Marco Rota.
The wild Duck is going to the closest viking village to destroy
the viking ships (grumble, grumble). Little Bo is coming with him,
as a volunteer. Their boat capzises. Donald is rescued by a beautyful
girl. Unfortunately the custom is that he is to marry her sister, who
doesn't exactly look like her sister. Donald then has to go through
some tests to see if he's worthy of marrying her. He plans to fail,
but he doesn't. After a while one of the vikings start to wonder if he
hasn't seen this duck earlier. Then the girl who Donald is to marry
finds Little Bo on the beach. He's then to marry the beautuful sister.
Donald must prevent this. He doesn't want to stay there. The viking
also finds out who Donald really is. His becoming wife doesn't like how
they treat him after this discovery, and beats up all of them. Then
Donald and Bo run away, destroy the viking ships, and escape in a small
one which they left complete.
Good. No need to say the art is very good.
- Goofy (D94015, 6 pages).
The owner of a clothes company tricks Goofy into being a model for
a competing company. Goofy shows up to be a good model -- although
not exactly as planned.
Actually it isn't so bad, but Goofy's clumsiness isn't that funny
that it can be used infinitely in this way.
Donald Duck (D91149, 5 pages). Art by Branca?
Donald plans to fish the biggest fish in the lake. He does. Unfortunately
fishing was prohibited that day.

Mickey sends Pluto out since he (Mickey) is going out for a while.
Pluto doesn't want to, but Mickey tells him that he has his own house.
Then Mickey finds out that he has locked himself out. Pluto won't
let him into his house.
Funny.
- Madam Mim (D93243, 4 pages).
It's Mim's birthday. She goes out into the forest to pick some flowers,
but doesn't find many. Her neighbors have picked all of them, to her.
Nice birthday, but do they expect to find any flowers the next year?
- Ducktales (D93273, 8 pages).
Huey, Louey, Dewey and Webby are kidnapped by a spaceship. It's taking
them to the planet Flak. Everything there is made of glass. The ducklings
seem to be very popular there. They are shown a museum with items from
the earth, among them a toaster (Earthly bread browning machine). Then
they are shown the new item of the museum -- children from the earth...
Flak has a neighboring planet, Ring, that is not very friendly. They are
planning an attack on Flak.

Donald wants to invite Daisy to a picnic, but she's already
decided to go with Gladstone, who'll teach her to play golf.
Donald says he's a much better golf teacher, although he's
never touched a golf club earlier (eh...?), than Gladstone.
Gladstone and Donald decides to play a round, and let the

at that time Daisy has become more interested in tennis.
Gladstone is teaching her, of course.

Mickey, Morty and Ferdy, but not Pluto, is going on a camping
trip. Pluto is to stay with a neighbor. We all know Pluto --
he isn't going to stay at any neighbor's place. On the trip
Pluto finds a lot of gold, and helps catching a couple of
crooks.

Part 2. Scrooge and Launchpad are going to save the ducklings.
Unfortunately they land on Ring instead of Flak. The buildings

Donald wins a big money prize, he thinks, and goes, together
with the nephews, to a very expensive hotel on an island in
the South Seas. He thinks that the island will show him genuine
South Seas culture. He gets very disappointed when he finds out
that the "old" villages are made of plastic, and that the national
birds are robots. Then he finds out that he hasn't won the money,
and he can't pay the hotel bill. He runs away, finds another
island where there are real natives and real birds. He brings some
eggs back to the phoney island, and they forget his bill.
The art is really good, and the story isn't bad either.
- Gyro Gearloose (D91237, 11 pages).
Gyro is trying to find something to compete with in the inventor
contest. The only thing he can think of is a small cleaning robot.
The special thing with this robot is that it reproduces itself when
there are a lot of dirt (like a bacterium). The Beagle Boys, who train
bees to steal Scrooge's money, goes to the contest to find out if
there is anything they can use. They steal a machine that can make
earthquakes, and destroy the money bin. Gyro's robot starts to
reproduce and soon there is an army of small robots which gets the
money back
The idea isn't too bad, although I'm not so sure it's new, but I don't
like the art. The Beagle Boys look terrible (which they should, but not
in that way).

Donald is tired of door salesmen. He pour water on the entrance to the

- Gyro Gearloose (D91237, 11 pages).
Gyro is trying to find something to compete with in the inventor
contest. The only thing he can think of is a small cleaning robot.
The special thing with this robot is that it reproduces itself when
there are a lot of dirt (like a bacterium). The Beagle Boys, who train
bees to steal Scrooge's money, goes to the contest to find out if
there is anything they can use. They steal a machine that can make
earthquakes, and destroy the money bin. Gyro's robot starts to
reproduce and soon there is an army of small robots which gets the
money back
The idea isn't too bad, although I'm not so sure it's new, but I don't
like the art. The Beagle Boys look terrible (which they should, but not
in that way).
- Donald Duck (D92321, 1 page). Art by Vicar.
Donald is tired of door salesmen. He pour water on the entrance to the
house, and puts up a sign that says the cement is wet.
Funny, and good art.

-------------------------
- Donald Duck (D92238, 14 pages). Art by Vicar.
Magica disguises herself as scrooge's maid, and steals the first
dime. There's one problem, though. There is a flower salesman in
the office, and Magica is reacting allergic to the flowers.
She goes home and finds a formula which makes her superstrong and
invincible (gosh...). In the rest of the story Scrooge is running
in front of her with the coin. At last he protects the coin with
flowers.
Vicar's art seems uninspired and I can't blame him.
- Grandma Duck (D93230, 6 pages).
Daisy comes out to Grandma's farm and finds that she is, as usual,
working very hard while Gus Goose isn't doing anything but sleeping.
She sends her to a hotel where she's supposed to rest. Grandma is
bored at the hotel. Then the railway is starting to strike, and most
of the workers at the hotel is prevented to come there. Grandma takes
over.
A little too unoriginal, I think.

A newspaper in Duckburg has a contest about "The Uncle of the Year".
Donald wants HDL to nominate him. They don't want too. After a while

He nominated uncle Scrooge.
Not too bad.

--------------------
- Donald Duck (D92432, 10 pages).
Somone has broken into the money-bin, but there isn't missing anything.
Actually there are some tools there, that hasn't been there before. There
is a name of a factory on it. The factory is in Klondike. Scrooge, Donald
and the nephews go there to solve this mystery. They find an old lady who
doesn't want anyone to come to the small city. This lady (well, she's not
exactly a lady...) shows up to be an old friend of Scrooge. She borrowed
the tools from him once, and delivered it now about a hundred years later.
Not too exciting.

Goofy is taking a short cut. There is just one problem, usually he takes
this short cut when he's walking, not when he's driving.
Quite funny.

The Beagle Boys are "hiring" a writer to make up a perfect crime for them.
They also make him come with them. At last, which isn't so long after the

The idea is quite good, I think...

Daisy wants to go on a cruise. Gladstone manages to get one ticket. He gives

time, and Gladstone in the night. They get a few problems trying to both be
washing the deck, and acting like rich passengers.
I think this could have been a really good story, but it somehow doesn't
stick together.

Scrooge's tanker and cargo fleet is suffering great losses. The

ducks decide to go with one of Scrooge's tankers. It suddenly
becomes swallowed by an iceberg.

Don's "Duck family-tree" tells nothing about the identity of HDL's
father. There's a "?" instead of his name and his face is hidden.

I think Jacob's theory could be very right (Ludwig von Drake being
the father of HDL), but I can't believe it's true.
I've heard of a theory about HDL's father before, it said that HDL
blew up their father with a giant firework. At least that was
told in the cartoon "Donald's nephews" or the newspaper-strips. Maybe
their father could have died by then... (as the theory said).
