Subject: Re: Disney comics in the US
Hello,
<<Can anyone here tell me where I can find recent Disney
comics?>>
I am interested in the answer to this question, but also am in wonder of
where
and how I could possibly get a hold of foreign Disney comics (foreign to me
that
is since I live in the US) that are in English. I believe that the UK and
Australia have some English publications and have heard that there may be
some
in Asia.
Does anyone have any information about this?
thanks,
-john from Oklahoma where it is a perspirating 102 F (appx. 39 C)

Since this is more directly on-topic , I've written
this here seperately - At the end of my " Sales "
posting , I mentioned " MAD MAGAZINE "'s peak-era
sales ? Well , I've since re-checked the source (
Which I would assume draws from the same Publisher's
Statement source that all discussion of U.S. comic
books that have a second class mailing permit that
allows them to offer subscriptions economically draws
from . ) , and , at its 1973 peak , " MAD " sold
2,800,000 copies , on an eight-times ( or nine )
-a-year basis , I recall .
It's in a slightly different " category " , of course
, and peak WDC&S , which I guess was a monthly , may
still surpass it . Well , anyway ! The most recent
source ( the same article ) claims 250,000 - now
monthly - , which is still far more than any other
single U.S. comic , at this point . Well , anyway !

2001-07-28 at 17:51:09
I would like to have advice on how to find the days of old dates,
like October 19, 1960. Was that a Monday, Tuesday, etc.?
Is there a site which gives the possibility to find the day of an
old date? At this moment, I need this information the most on dates
from 1960-1964.
I'm working on a timeline and some information with a date included
refers to, for example, "last Sunday". Without an indication of what
the date was of that Sunday.
I'll try to illustrate what I mean:
1960, October 19 - "Last Sunday the weather was good."
If I know the day of October 19, I can find out the date of that Sunday.
(If October 19 was on Monday, then that Sunday was October 18. Etc.)

Just checked the CD 57 reprint against the original, and there's no
difference, and no trace of Perego's art anywhere.
It's the bomb explosion (a leftover of military manoeuvres) that does
it for the uncles... the concept is, however, treated with some...
"lightness"... the farmer, after the explosion, goes "Oh... the Cow
brothers just disappeared..."
It is left to the reader's imagination to make out exactly how and
where they might have "disappeared"... :-)

difference, and no trace of Perego's art anywhere.
It's the bomb explosion (a leftover of military manoeuvres) that does
it for the uncles... the concept is, however, treated with some...
"lightness"... the farmer, after the explosion, goes "Oh... the Cow
brothers just disappeared..."
It is left to the reader's imagination to make out exactly how and
where they might have "disappeared"... :-)
