I think the cover was made for the Dutch weekly (and later reprinted by
Gladstone).
Anyway, does the text in Picsou state that it was a Barks cover? I think I
read that.
It's very surprising, BTW, to see statues made of non-Barks covers.

From "Entenhausen", so they were copies from Germany, I guess.

Small correction: "the first story with Gyro". It's not the first story
where Gyro was the hero.

Actually, "Nobody's Business". Suprisingly, they left the old Gladstone logo
in the last panel. Did the Picsou version contain any explanation about
that?

The cover was also published in France, but I'm not sure what code I
should use. I think it's HC 92-39.

Only that it is "inspired by Barks" (an error probably). It doesn't say

I'm not familiar with the concept of "hero"... Indeed, Gyro only makes a
cameo appearance.

That's a production that is never published in France. But every

Ooops, now I remember that "Nobody's Business" was published in "Picsou"
in 1988 (must be #198 or around), not in JM 1886 as I said (this one
must be the "Menagerie" story).
Now I wonder why I make indexes if I never consult them! ;-)

Just my final two cents on the Monty Python / A Little Something Special
matter (thanks Don and Stefan for your comments, Gary for the original
script, and Martin for the Python excerpt!).
So, the Italian translation is quite literal. I still wonder why it looks
much more awkward than the original version... Maybe it's just because I've
seen "Holy Grail" only in English, and "Duck-Witch" sounds more familiar
than "Papera-Strega".
Summing up, I think the Italian translator (and editor) had three viable
options:
1) translate literally, *but* add a note - in the story introduction -
explaining the source of the gag. Consider that Monty Python are NOT widely
known in Italy, and "Holy Grail", in particular, has been seen by maybe
0.01% of the population... It would have been a good opportunity to widen
the reader's "cultural" horizons. And I think people who appreciate Don's
stories are very likely to be amused by Monty Python, too.
2) use the Beagle Boy's balloon space to elaborate a little on the
difference between "witch" and "sorceress", in order to achieve at least one
of the goals Don had in mind when writing the story.
3) translate freely, sacrificing the Python reference for the sake of the
story flow's smoothness.
Stefan went for solution 3), if only out of lack of time for a full analysis
of the problem. And I think the result was more than acceptable!
The Italian translator chose (?) a fourth solution - namely, literal
translation *without* explanatory note. I personally don't like it - but,
anyhow, I'll stop complaining, as at least that gave *me* the opportunity to
get the gag ;-)
And now for something completely different...
Can any of the lucky owners of the B/W Carl Barks Library tell me what was
the original selling price of the sets, back in the 80's?
Bye,
Armando
P.S.: Congratulations to Tristan and Anders Christian for their great
webpage! Maybe you could add a section about how Don's stories were
*translated* in the various countries... But then, "*TWO* Worlds" wouldn't
be enough, would they? ;-)

Actually, there *IS* a chance that U$ and WDC&S will resume their regular
publication run in the U.S.. Gladstone has mailed a flier to a number of
comics traders and distributors saying that there's a good chance that U$
and WDC&S will be published again (by Gladstone ?). Negotiations are
reported to be moving along promisingly, and there will be a definite word
on this within a month.
Perhaps Gary from Gladstone can shed more light on this issue...

I hope so. Aside from the last sentence there, the rest of your paragraph is
what Gladstone has being saying since they stopped publishing.
In any case, the books that have been solicited will never get shipped in time.
(Heck a couple of months' worth of books are late already.) And in order not
to skip numbering, they'll all most likely get cancelled and replaced by new
editions of all the titles.
I'll just cross my fingers in the meantime.

Lucca Comics hosts an exhibition and a
meeting to celebrate the most famous mouse of the world.
- Hommage to Floyd Goffredson, father of the comic strips Mickey.
- April 1949: the birth of Topolino pocket
Lucca Comics could not avoid to celebrate the most famous mouse of
the
world. So, for the fiftieth year of the pocket, Lucca hosts an
exhibit and a
meeting devoted to Mickey Mouse. The best solution to speak of the
mouse is
to pay hommage to Floyd Gottfredson, the father of the Mickey of the
comic
strips. Gottfredson is also the author behind famous characters like
Eega
Beeva, the Phantom Blot, Chief O'Hara and many others.
Sponsored by The Walt Disney Company - Italia, Lucca Comics holds an
exhibition devoted to
this great American author (1905-1986). Gottfredson began to work for
Disney
as animator in 1929 and then moved to comic strips on the April 1930.
The
first strip he drew appeared the 5th of May, the same day he turned
twenty-five: Gottfredson kept on drawing the comic strips Mickey
until he
retired the 1st of October, 1975. On the first issue of Topolino
pocket,
appeared on Italian newsstands on the April 1949, there was also the
first
story of Eega Beeva translated in Italy.
The exhibition opens on March, 19, together with the opening of the
Fair, in
a fascinating downtown setting, and it lasts until April 5. It
showcases original art and memorabilia.
As far as the pocket itself is concerned, Lucca Comics hosts a panel,
introduced by Luca Boschi, whose relators include critics and
collectors such as Fabio Gadducci, Leonardo Gori, Sergio Pignatone,
Alberto Becattini, Andrea Sani, Disney creators as Corrado
Mastantuono, Bruno Concina, Tito Faraci, Silvia Ziche, Giorgio
Cavazzano, Angelo Palmas, Ezio Sisto, Barbara Schwartz, Carlo Chendi,
Francesco Guerrini, Gianfranco Grieco, Simone Stenti, "Topolino" "big
shot" Paolo Cavaglione, Gianni Bono, Massimo Marconi (Antonio
Secondo), Francois Corteggiani and others editors from Disney Italia,
such as Lidia Cannatella. The meeting will be marked also by the
presentation of the first issue of the "Collezionismo magazine" (most
of the issue being dedicated to the "Topolino libretto").

Am I mistaken, or the coloring at PICSOU has deteriorated greatly compared
to only a year ago? I notice that many stories (including most of Don's
stories) are presented in PICSOU employing rather garish coloring that
affects their overall "feel" in a negative way.
Why doesn't PICSOU use similar coloring methods to the ones employed at "Le
Journal de Mickey"? The use of soft tones in coloring JM enhances the
stories greatly. I just received my sub-copy of JM #2437 printing Floyd
Gottfredson's "Mystery at Hidden River", and I must say that I'm dumbfounded
at seeing the disparity at the coloring jobs between PICSOU and JM.
Cheers,
Archontis
