Just went to the Comic Art Gallery in San Francisco yesterday. There's
a flyer posted, which lists the upcoming exhibits. Don Rosa's "Uncle
Scrooge" exhibit is slated for Sept-Dec. Edward Gorey's "A Life of Mys-
tery" (or something like that) exhibit is also slated for Sept-Dec. I
have no idea what Mr. Gorey draws -- I guess it's a mystery ...

Sorry if this is old news, but I just learned that Gladstone will stop
publishing 'Donald Duck & Mickey Mouse' and 'Walt Disney Giant'.
Besides that, WDCS and Uncle Scrooge Adventures will be monthly titles
(instead of bi-monthly).
I like this last piece of news. I hate stories being printed in multiple
parts, and having them several months apart only makes it worse (of
course, LO$ was different for all the reasons we know: it is looong,
each part has a story on its own, etc). If Gladstone insists on printing
multi-part stories, now it is better to have them one month apart.
Best regards to you all,

The ultimate Scrooge Biography

DON :
I was just re-reading your stories "Hearts of the Yukon"
and "Of D,D and D", which are some of my very favorite
stories ever written. Since I am a little bit obcessed
with these stories dealing with Scrooges past,
especially the Yukon stories, I was wondering if it was
theoretically possible do do some kind of an ultimate
biography of Scooge`s life, including yours and Barks`
stories completely, maybe even combinated stories that
would contain an old Barks story with one of yours
added to it. This would mean the totally complete,
chronological correct life of Scrooge. Of course I know
that this project would be maybe over 1000 pages long,
but since the old Barks` stories, your LoS
and others of your stories already exist, most of the
work is already done. I am asking you, because you
did all that research for the LoS, and it would
probably be easier for you to arrange all that than for
others, despite the fact that no other artist is so wild
about barksian details and that kinda stuff.
By the way, I haven`t read any new stories of yours for
a while. The ones they printed in the US the past year
have already been published in Europe, and in the Don
Rosa album series they are reprinting older stories, too.
So, what`s coming up? New Yukon stories??????
Hope your hand gets better soon!
Have a great day, everybody!

ARTHUR & GREG:
You wanted to know how creators experience other creators works? What a
great question. I never stopped to think about that before. On
reflection, I realize that I have a number of thoughts which effect each
other. Let me see if I can explain.
Most of the Disney stuff I "read" is in Danish, which I cannot
understand, though sound effects, modern terms, exclamations and such I
can usually get if I want to sound them out.
Therefore, I'm like a child and must rely on the pictures to tell me the
story and provide the gags. This is as true of my own work as others.
So, if I look at the storytelling carried by the pictures and it makes
me laugh, I enjoy it. This is why I admire Don's work.
If I cannot figure out what is going on, it "feels" like most of the
story must be in the words, and I am kept from appreciating the story,
now matter how good the art, though sometimes the liveliness of the art
allows me to appreciate the art. I make a distinction between good
storytelling and good art; they're not necessarily the same.
I'm FAR more critical when reading my own stories than other folks'
stories, and see every accidental diminution of my intent as a kind of
failure. Whereas with other folks, I react negatively to things like a
series of panels of "talking heads" in which I get no emotional context
(it feels like just so much clumsy exposition -- why not have the
character doing something, even if it's mundane, that can reveal
character WHILE all the talking's going on?) or a series of panels which
contain repetitious images (no matter how fascinating) which change so
little that no real "motion" is created in the narrative.
But mostly, I just look at the stuff and let it carry me along as it
will and allow my unconscious reaction to be formed thereby.
On the other hand, I've grown highly critical of movies that fail to
properly establish a character's motivation, or that demonstrate no
regard for the integrity of the characters, or whose plot is just
confused when it's supposed to be suspenseful. But my greatest contempt
is for saccharine scenes where there is no character depth, but we're
supposed to cry on cue, just as in days past, a waved flag might elicit
pride. The film maker is being manipulative, not artful.

By the way, this is one of the stories by Milton/Jippes that Gladstone

Gladstone didn't print in earlier (too violent, maybe?).

Hi!
DANNY COENEN:
"the Totally Complete Chronological Correct Life and Times
of Scrooge McDuck"! I like that, but we'd better call it "tTCCCLaToSMD" from
now on! ;-)
In fact, I've also been thinking about that for a while. Take Don's
"Of Ducks and Dimes and Destinies". That story has several pages that would
fit PERFECTLY into the first part of the "Life of Scrooge", in which Scrooge
earns his first dime. It's a shame that those two stories are told seperately.
With some cutting, pasting and maybe some additional drawings, everything
could be perfectly placed together. Same with the Yukon-stories. That would all
make a great "tTCCCLAToSMD".
This may all be a little undoable. Especially when you'd also include
the Barks stories, like Danny says, which would make "tTCCCLAaToSMD" of 1000+
pages. That "tTCCCLAaTOSMD" is not reasonable. But it WOULD be possible to make
a collection of all the Rosa-stories that deal with Scrooge's life. That would,
for instance, also include the Yukon stories and some others. Placing all those
stories in chronological order would would make "tTCCCLaToSMbDRNIAtSDbCBaSL
",
which OFCOURSE would mean "the Totally Complete Chronological Correct Life and
Times of Scrooge McDuck by Don Rosa, Not Including All the Stories Done by Carl
Barks about Scrooge's Life <Phew>".
I also think that Rosa's and Barks' art-style won't fit together.

What's more, as I found out when I translated it for Gladstone
a while back, an English script already existed for it. Freddy
Milton even sent me a copy of that English script, but I ended
up not using it and simply translating the published Dutch version
outright. The English script was not polished: it was a very
rough draft written by non-native English speakers, while the
Dutch version had been polished to perfection.

I have no idea why Gladstone #I didn't print the story. Perhaps
they intended to, but Disney yanked the license before they
could get around to it? The story may be the first appearance
of a toilet I've ever seen in a Disney comic, by the way. I'll
be curious to see if Disney Burbank allows _that_ to go through
in an American-published story.

Of course I've added links there from my Disney comics pages (and Gary

I think there are others stories in latin. As far as I could
understand in ZIO PAPERONE # 81, the European Language Institute published
SCRUGULUS, a comic book with more than one number. * Scrugulus et radius
contra procellam* (U$ and the thhunderbolt anticyclone) was published in
1985. I think all stories are italian one. And those are the names of the
characters:
English Latin
MICKEY MOUSE MICHAEL MUSCULUS
DONALD DUCK DONALDUS ANAS
UNCLE SCROOGE SCRUGULUS
GRANDMA DUCK AVIA ANATICULA
HUEY,DEWEY,LOUIE TITUS, TOTUS, TUTUS

I think there are others stories in latin. As far as I could
understand in ZIO PAPERONE # 81, the European Language Institute published
SCRUGULUS, a comic book with more than one number. * Scrugulus et radius
contra procellam* (U$ and the thhunderbolt anticyclone) was published in
1985. I think all stories are italian one. And those are the names of the
characters:
English Latin
MICKEY MOUSE MICHAEL MUSCULUS
DONALD DUCK DONALDUS ANAS
UNCLE SCROOGE SCRUGULUS
GRANDMA DUCK AVIA ANATICULA
HUEY,DEWEY,LOUIE TITUS, TOTUS, TUTUS

ARTHUR:
I probably won't qualify for a pro yet (I like to say that I'm a
n amateur half-way to be a pro), but here's what I've learned:
No matter what your hobby is - be that music, arts, sports or
whatever - if you are so seriously involved with it that you
actually study and learn something about the topic, you can find
the masters of the field even more enjoyable. If you know
something about certain musical techniques or brush strokes in
an illustration and are able to spot them at some great piece of
work, that only adds to the pleasure of it.
MIKKO:
Thanks for your critic. The same points were risen by some of my
fellows working for the paper. I'm working on it!

No other Disney items from Diamond than Augie's Gladstone report. I
haven't had time to read Capitol; but they have been purchased by Diamond, so
no catalogue from them next month. Diamond does confirm that the following
Gladstones have been cancelled: Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse #8 and Walt
Disney Giant #8.
