The May issue of the "National Geographic" plopped into my mailbox the other
day, and following two very interesting articles on India's fiftieth
birthday and Iceland's volcanoes, there appeared an article titled "La
Salle's Last Voyage". Interesting stuff. It was all about the Frenchman's
ill-fated attempt to reach the Mississippi and establish a French colony way
back in 1684. Well, the chap overshot his mark by 400 miles west of the
Mississippi delta, and his ship, the "Belle" blown by a north wind run
aground at Matagorda Bay in the Gulf of Mexico in 1686. La Salle was
murdered by his own men one year later near the Trinity river.
Well, all this may sound interesting, but what does it have to do with our
list? Read on...
"Belle's" wreckage was found in 1995 by a scanner looking for magnetic
anomalies on the bay floor due to iron. And I quote from the National
Geographic: "To simplify excavation in the silty bay, the Texas Historical
Commission--in charge of the wreck's recovery--had a cofferdam built around
the "Belle" and had the water pumped out".!!! (Digression-description of the
cofferdam: "It consists of two concentric octagonal walls of interlocking
steel plates sunk 40 feet below the bay floor and rising about 6 feet above
sea level. Sand-and-gravel fill between the walls serves as a work platform
for the archaelogists.")
As I was reading this, I felt goose pimples all over my body. I had read
something similar in a DON ROSA story! What these guys are doing with
"Belle", Uncle Scrooge, Donald and the boys had done back in 1990 in Don's
"Treasure Under Glass". Only difference was that the cofferdam was a huge
glass dome! Almost everything else is identical, even though I should add
that the Ducks found the "Candelaria" in a much better shape that the
archaeologists found the "Belle"! (But made up for that when they LEFT the
"Candelaria" :-)). Interesting coincidence that the Spanish Main is in the
same vicinity with Matagorda Bay, only east.
Finally, someone really ought to send a copy of Rosa's "Treasure Under
Glass" to the project director of "Belle's" excavation,Jim Brush, who
exclaimed in that same article: "It is the first dry-land excavation of an
offshore wreck in this hemisphere". I mean, the Ducks were the first to do
it six years earlier (or was it 40 years earlier?:-)) only a couple thousand
miles south-east of Matagorda Bay!

Maestri Disney on Bottaro

Just a few lines to point out that "Maestri Disney" #3 on sale now is
dedicated to Luciano Bottaro. This is by far the best issue of "Maestri
Disney" IMHO (maybe because Bottaro is one of the Italian authors I love
most). There is even the first reprint in 37 years of "Paperino e
l'aspirapolvere fatato"! My only regret is that three weeks ago I just payed
more than 5 Euros for the original issue, just because I thought there were
no reprints available!!!! If only I had asked Lidia!!!

Hi, it's my first time on the list, hope you all can understand my

In order to answer to Eirik Krogh Visted, I'm sending the following:
The story Donald Finds pirate's Gold was drawed by Carl Barks and Jack
Hannah, Barks drawed the tables 1, 2, 5 and from 12 to 40, Hannah the
other ones.
The subject of the story was from a plot by Harry Reeves and Homer
Brightman, made for a never realized cartoon, and Robert -Bob- Karp did
the comic adaptation.
Other stories from Barks about treasures and/or islands are:

Does this mean that 40 years from now people will call me obscene, because I
will still be reading my obscenely-expensive copies of those old comic books
while munching on milk and cookies, rather than keeping them airtightly packed
in mylar sleeves, not daring to even look at them for fear that handling them
might reduce their value?
RIK:

In general, there is very little overlap in Gladstone's comic *books*. (What
little there is, is mostly the reprinting of significant stories, several
years after their previous publication.) On the other hand, Gladstone's comic
*albums* overlap extensively with the comic books, by definition, as they
reprint every story by Barks (also Rosa and Van Horn) in sequence. It used to
be that on the same month I would get a comic book and an album with the same
story, but things have improved. Thus, I would suggest subscribing to as many
of the comic books as you can afford, and only getting the albums if you are
interested in having as many as possible of Barks' stories in a durable
format. (For what it's worth, I subscribe to both comic books and albums.)
> What is this "Penny Pincher" book? I'd hate to spend thirty or forty bucks on a
> subscription that wasn't up to par.
I've only seen the first two Penny Pinchers, and I would think that they are
terrific value for money, as they are filled from cover to cover with stories.
If you can get them at 99c per issue, go for it. If, like me, you can only
get them by subscription, those Penny Pinchers might be a bit expensive, but
they seem to be worth the expense.

I bet you are going to get a lot of mail about the above question! ;-)

At worst, Don's sories are comparable to Barks' stories. At best, Don manages
to surpass the master. Of course, this is only personal opinion.

During their first run, Gladstone would always squeeze some Barks in every
duck title they published, even if it was a one-pager. The only exception to
this rule was in issues featuring a Don Rosa story. This would suggest that
readers are anything but disappointed when reading Don's stories!

One thing we already intended to do is a page about censoring and

I'm afraid we're just about cleaned out of new Rosa and Van Horn material
here in the States. WDC&S's monthly schedule has devoured what's available
- even doing three-parters! This means everyone will be enjoying some

catches up with us again.
Here's the Don Rosa slate for the next several issues:
WDC&S 617 will reprint "Recalled Wreck" from WDC&S 524.
WDC&S 618 will reprint "Making the Grade" from WDC&S 547.
WDC&S 619 will reprint "Give Unto Others" from Mickey & Donald 17.
WDC&S 620 will reprint "Oolated Luck" from WDC&S 528.
WDC&S 621 will present "Eye for Detail," a new story.
Keep in mind that this schedule is subject to change, with or without
