I have never seen this story, but what about "Paperino e l'atollo
triangolare", from Almanacco Topolino #106 (1965) ? (by Luciano Gatto
and Abramo Barosso). It's 28 pages long. Description is "treasure on a
Pacific island".

Good list, but it is strange that you list "P, PM". Actually, this is
just one of the subsets of the I-production (the right codes being "I PM
something").
And listing all subsets of all know production would be very long!
H-publisher now is "VNU" (at least on the comics).
I-publisher now is "Disney Italia".
"KF" looks like the printed code used in Egmont publications.
"K" is the official code of stories produced in the US by "Disney
Comics" in 1990-92 or so. That's why a different letter is used, I
think, in the Disney database (Y or Z).

One can easily tell that the original story was drawn by Luciano Gatto; and
from the colophon in your scan one could be sure that it was not later than
1969. With this primer, a laborious search through INDUCKS and FSB
(ddb'ers: we need to do something about this...), with frequent
cross-checks against the actual comics, allowed me to find the original story:
I AT 106-B (01-10-1965)
Paperino e l'atollo triangolare
/Barosso/Gatto/
28/tesoro su un'isoletta del Pacifico/Paperino; Zio Paperone, QQQ, Bassotti
[ristampe: AR 949, SAP 32]
For comparison, an image of the first panel is on my disc and I'll upload
it somewhere tomorrow from work if I don't forget ;-)
Note how the edition you scanned traded the comparatively nice and warm

Hi!
> > His name in danish is Hr. Naevenyttig, mening something
> like annoying
Well, I guess I shouldn't be disputing danish with a dane, but I am actually
_born_ in Denmark, so I'll risk it :-) And we have the same word in
norwegian also...
Naevenyttig doesn't _directly_ mean annoying! A direct translation would be
something like: [Someone with] "useful fists". Not in the meaning of a good
fighter, but beeing good at fixing things, using hammer and saw etc. The
opposite of having "ten thumbs", (which I'm not sure is used in english, but
I guess it's quite clear what it means?).
If the word "Naevenyttig" is used in danish about someone "annoying" (which
I wouldn't say is so in norwegian, where the word is used in a positive
sense [there might of course be local variations of this in Norway, but I'm
not aware of any!]), it could be explained by noting that someone very
"Naevenyttig" might be annoyingly effective keeping house and garden in
order, in the eyes of a normal person (or particularly in the eyes of a
person like DD...).
What the characters name in norwegian is, I don't know, but I'll see if I
can check it up some time! If someone else doesn't beat me to it...

Interesting. I did something similar years ago, but with "Barks = quality
100, anyone else = quality 0".
In other words, I counted the number of Barks pages in the Dutch weekly. The
best Barks year in Dutch history is 1975, when they put a Barks 1-pager on
the back cover of every issue. When not counting these, 1976 is slightly
better.
When counting relatively (I mean "pages of Barks per issue"), the starting
year, 1952, is the top. They has only 10 issues, but 99 Barks pages.
This has no real relation to what you have been doing, maybe. But I thought
it was interesting enough to at least mention.
I know it can be very dangerous to assign a quality measure to every artist.
Especially when the artist did not write the stories himself. Stories that I
regarded rubbish for years, are actually quite good when you see through the
horrible artwork...

Maybe the easiest (and least expensive) way is to try and find recent
Gladstone comics, where they reprinted both old Bug stories, and new ones,
coming from Holland (with a new script by Don Markstein).
These Gladstone comics were 7 or 8 dollars each, but back issues could be
more expensive now. Probably they are still for sale at Gladstone's.
For instance, Walt Disney's Comics 609, 610, 613, 615 (all reprints of
1940s/1950s stories), and 623, 624, 625, 627, 629, 630 (all 3- or 4-page
Dutch/Markstein stories).

Hi Abdulmonem Abbas. The most simple way to recognize the artists of certain
stories are this simple:
1. You said that the mag began from 1994 so you must have read quite a lot.
You must have noticed that most Donald Duck stories have several different
"styles" in drawing. Once you're familiar with the styles, you can assume
that other story which has same style in drawing must be drawn by the same
person.
2. Search the net for some names and see if any of his/her (i think there
hasn't been a female duck artist before or am i wrong:-) arts match the ones
you read.
3. If you still can't identify or get the artists' names. Just scan a page
or two and ask here. Don't have a scanner? Put the story code in this list,
and i'm pretty sure there're a lot of nice people here will try to help you
out.
Hope that helps:-)
PS several most known artists:
Carl Barks ( a Disney Legend)
Don Rosa (in my list, he's 2nd top duck artist. He's in a class of his own,
can't compare with Barks and i think he doesn't like to be compared)
William Van Horn
Al Taliaferro (the strips are hilarious and funny)
Daan Jippes (he drawn most Barks scripts very well)
Ben Verhagen (he's not that famous, i think???. But i do like his works)

Hi Abdulmonem Abbas. The most simple way to recognize the artists of certain
stories are this simple:
1. You said that the mag began from 1994 so you must have read quite a lot.
You must have noticed that most Donald Duck stories have several different
"styles" in drawing. Once you're familiar with the styles, you can assume
that other story which has same style in drawing must be drawn by the same
person.
2. Search the net for some names and see if any of his/her (i think there
hasn't been a female duck artist before or am i wrong:-) arts match the ones
you read.
