...Aside from the " deluxe Italian/English printings
of the same story " and Indian comics , ARE there
english-language Disneys being printed - not just "
produced " , which could be interpreted as " first
WRITTEN in English " - anywhere ? I thought , back at
Yahoo!'s Barks/Rosa Club , someone said France
produced an English-language Disney comic ?
Frankly , what's wrong with the British/Irish and
Australia/New Zealand markets that they can't support
Disney comics ? As an American , I'm familiar enough
with the problems in the U.S./Canadian market , but ,
as for the rest of the English-speaking " First World/
Industrial West " , what is the problem ?
Actually , do these Indian Disney comics get sent to
other English ( even just
as a second language )-speaking/British Commonwealth
countries , such as are
in Asia , Africa , and the West Indies ?
And , in fact , IS there any likelihood that
Gladstone/Russ Cochran will reach a deal with Disney
to start U.S. Disneys up again ( " Regular " comic
books ,
I mean , not those ultra-expensive adult
collector-oriented b&w albums that
they DO still offer ! ) , which that Yahoo! club also
said , which helped arouse my interest to come here ,
in the first place , I might say ?????????

Oh yes, I understand. But then I made a grammaticla error too, besides
to my possibly slang-expression.
I haven't had english since 2nd grade of high school - that might be
the reason. I'm usually pretty strong in it anyway. (?)

Length of stories, a question to Italian members
Message 228 -

Hi!
A while back we were discussing the current stories in the pocket books.
One thing that bothered me was the stories were getting shorter and
shorter. I totally forgot that I have made a chart of average lengths of
stories for out pocket book site. The chart is at address:
http://www.perunamaa.net/taskarit/pituudet.gif
It quite clearly shows that the average story has been shorter only when
the pocket books stopped containing framestorys which were replaced by
short gags. And the really bad thing is that the average is going down
all the time, slowly but surely.
And while I'm talking about framestories, I have had one question going
around in my head for a while. In the Finnish pocket book 78 there is a
frame story coded I CWD 19-A (from the Italian pocket "Paperoscope"). In
the last part of framestory a man in black suit comes to congratulate
Gladstone for making such a great film, and Gladstone answers in amazement
"What? Thanks from you!". I would like to know if this man in black is
supposed to depict some famous Italian film critic who thinks every movie
sucks. The whole framestory wasn't printed here in Finland so I don't know
if he was introduced in the previous parts and is just a regular
character. It's something in the way he's drawn that makes me suspect that
there's some hidden meaning in him. Anyway, I would really appreciate it
if an Italian member could shed some light on the matter.

Hi Gilles,
I know that there is also a couple of Family trees that were part of some Barks'
stories, one, I believe was part of a story where Gyro & the Duck clan are visiting
Grandma's house and the Beagle Boys tried to rob the place. I forget the exact
circumstances, but Gyro switched ON an invention of his and it caused EVERYONE
(the Ducks, Gyro, the Beagle Boys) and the entire house to be transported into
the prehistoric past. As I recall they were looking at the Family Tree because
they found a mysterious branch from the Prehistoric days and they wanted to
find out who he was. They ran into a prehistoric Duck whom they believed was
the mysterious relative, and then the whole house and everyone, INCLUDING the
prehistoric Duck were transported back to the present. Does anyone remember
this story? Can someone scan a picture of the Prehistoric relative and the
Family Tree for Gilles?
Also, Gilles, for the Rockerduck nephews, I would recommend that you use the
names listed in the image I sent to you since I was guessing when I quoted George,
Patrick & Simeon... I don't remember where I got those names, and I thought
it was listed somewhere on Per Starbeck's site, but I couldn't find it. Sorry.

I guess he's supposed to be the archetype of the evil-eyed person, a bringer
of bad luck. He doesn't appear anywhere else in the frame-story, and I don't
remember seeing him in any other story.

Hi
Interested people should note that Picsou 351 prints the 1-part version of
Don's 3 cabelleroes-story.
I came up here to the school today, to go to a party this evening and
found it in the mailbasket we have. (Thank you so very much Georges!)
When I get the time for it I will remake the once made page about 1 or
2/3-part versiuons of Don's stories. I think there was something problem
with Geocities according to the last one.
Only story btw, where we don't know of a 3-part version btw. is the Lost

an operational license in hand yet, but the murmur in the wind is that a
license is now being drafted. If that's the case, it is a significant
turning point, and while still no guarantee of a final positive resolution,
it indicates that the level of commitment by both parties to a positive

Family Tree in Strobl story
Message 237 -
2001-05-19 at 03:58:29
Regarding the Duck family tree in the "Caveduck" story mentioned by Rich
Bellacera:
The story referred to was not by Carl Barks, but written by Carl Fallberg,
drawn by Tony Strobl and inked by Steve Steere. The story was titled
"Uncle Donald and His Nephews - Family Fun" issued first in USA in Dell
Giant Comic nr. 38 also titled "Family Fun", in Spring of 1960.
The story seems to have a very non-scientific plot and storyline, as a
tornado lifted Grandma's house off of its foundation, carrying it into the
jetstream, and very far away into a tropical valley with prehistoric
animals ((dinosaurs, flying reptiles and a "cave duck" (who is later found
to be the missing Duck on the Family Tree)). The family tree is very
unscientific as well, having mainly the regular Duck characters, and only
the following additions: Blackduck the Pirate, Z-Gun Duck (Cowboy),
Ebenezer Duck, and a missing member (Cave Duck). It is very silly, as it
has no parents or proper relating branches. Gyro comes off Donald's
branch. He (a chicken) is either donald's Brother, or was "miraculously
born" using one of Donald's ribs (act of God) or cloned using Donald's DNA
(in 1959 or 1960?)
How were these characters born without mothers???? Based on the diagram,
ALL the characters are children of one mother (the tree trunk), except
Huey, Dewey and Louie, who are Donald's sons, and April, May and June, who
are Daisy's daughters. The "Cave Duck's" egg must have been carried off by
a fairly recent tornado, as he is of the same generation as Donald et al.
There were no previous generations to migrate across continents to that
hidden valley. Blackduck must be a "modern" (current) pirate. Scrooge is
a very much older brother of Donald.
I will send scans of the "Cave Duck" and the Family Tree to Gilles Maurice.
Wak! Wak! Kwak! Kwak!
Rob Klein
I'll be curious to see how Gilles Maurice can weave these four extra
characters into an overall Comicbook Disney Duck family tree.

Ah, yes.... Dell Giant 38, "Uncle Donald and his Nephews Family Fun" 1960,
art by Tony Strobl. And there was no time travel involved. It was all
present day. A Tornado transported Grandma's house somewhere to the jungles
of South America. Gyro's invention was a reverse twister that transported
them, house and all, back. (The Beagles were left behind with the
dinosaurs.)
The family tree shown on page 2 was very simple.

Folks,
This is for the Norwegians on the list:
Three Caballeros is on TV3 tomorrow Sunday
at 16.30. Swedes and Danes should watch for
it on their on national TV3 if has not been shown
there already. I do not know if will be dubbed in
Norwegian - I hope not! But TV3 is not known
for art or quality, I fear the worst.
Happy watching!
