It is "U$ "The Grouch King of Duckburg", D 96186. Scrooge BONK in Schroder
at the end of page 3. It's a sort of "hommage" to Ulrich by Branca, who was
inking Ulrich's "MM Runaway Brain" story in that very period.

Isn't "Vicar" an acronym for "VICtor A. Rios"?

Best,

Eric

I know it too! It's "Gambadilegno e il progetto mai visto" (I TL 1951-B)
where Pete goes back in time and tries to prevent Walt from inventing
Mickey. One weird story, if you ask me. Seems to me that the time-machine
can transport comic characters to real world also. Pete never stopped to
think that perhaps he would cease to exist if Mickey didn't.

Another fun example of real/comic world interference stories is "Topolino
all'inseguimento dell'anacronismo multiuso" (I TL 1857-C) where Goofy
leaves an object when he and Mickey are in the past. In the end there is a
short period when Mickey and all other Disney characters are actually
Picasso characters. Wild! What a world it would be!

Here's what's in this month's issue of Komix:

* Cover by Carl Barks, with the airbrush coloring used in a Dutch edition.
I have put a scan in http://dias.cti.gr/~kyrimis/pics/komix161.jpg
* A two-page letters column. In one of the letters they give a pretty
reasonable (and quite incorrect) answer to a reader asking why all
dialogs end with an exclamation mark rather than a period.
* A three-page article with "The news of Komix". Among other items,
we learn that a street in Paris is going to be named after Rene
Gosciny. I wonder if Americans are going to honor their great story
teller in a similar fashion.
* Paul Murry's "Rule's 'n' Regulations" from the May 1950 "Four Color
Comics" [sic] magazine.
* A two-page article titled "The first steps of a story-teller", subtitled
"Donald Munchhousen...a forgotten script by Carl Barks".
* Don's "Fit to be Pied" (AR 108).
* A one-page article titled "From the Drachma to the Euro", subtitled "the
adventure of a three thousand year old coin".
* A one-page article titled "Features of Euro coins", subtitled "the size,
thickness, and color of the eight coins varies with their value".
* Josep Tello Gonzales' "Pintoretto da Riscatto" (D 4471). [Despite what
people say about Tello, I love the way he reproduces Murry's style.]
* Part four of you-know-what. I've said enough on the subject!
* The two-page ad about Harry Potter trading cards, masquerading as
an article has been moved to the last page and the inside back cover
of the magazine. Let's hope that in the next issue it is moved even
further back.

And now for some good news: Next issue, although free of non-Disney
material, is still going to be "fortified" (with an accompanying
"fortified" price). There is no indication that this is a special
Christmas issue (in fact, its coming out on November 23 rather precludes
this), so I guess the price increase *is* going to be accompanied by an
increase in page count, after all. What's more, beginning last month
(which I should have noticed before complaining), they are now giving
the correct euro equivalent, rounding to the nearest cent (in this case
rounding down!) as they should, so Komix now costs only 2.64 euros rather
than 2.70!

Next month's "fortified" issue will contain Don's "Hearts of the Yukon"
and Hank Porter's "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs". I usually don't
announce next month's issue's contents, but I can't wait till next month
to mention that I have this story in a publication produced by Gladstone
in 1987. This is a large size publication, complete with articles, a
showcase of Snow White drawings by Gustaf Tenggren, a Snow White poster
from a painting commisioned by Gladstone from Ron Dias, and a bunch of
trading stickers. Other than an old Gladstone back issues catalog, from
which I had bought it, I haven't seen this album mentioned anywhere. I
wonder if it is some kind of rarity. (No, it's not for sale!)

Due to various circumstances, I have not translated anything from last
month's issue of Komix yet. As there are no Rosa-related articles this
month, I will be making last month's translations this month, and I'll
be posting them as soon as they are ready.

"How can you be late in a time machine?"
-----

Hi!

-----I guess you can call this some kind of spoiler... but I guess you all
have read most Carl Barks stories anyway?

Once upon a time, Carl Barks wrote a story where Huey, Dewey and Louie was
very fond of scary magazines and other stuff Donald ment they should keep
away from. Therefor, Donald went to Gyro and borrowed a machine that could
send things from the machine into another machine in another room. A kind of
teleport. The machine also looked a bit spooky, so Donald put one of the
machines in his living room and tells the boys that he's going out for the
evening. When they start reading their magazine again, Donald comes through
the machine and scares them. But the power wires fall down, and something
goes terribly wrong...

What I need to know, is; what was the name of this machine, and what was the
story name/code for this story? The reason I need to know this is that I'm
working on my new script now, and after some guiding tips from Byron
Erickson I know I need some kind of Gyro invention that could work almost
just like this one. Why should he invent a new one when Carl Barks already
have done it? :) So; what was the name of this machine?

Now I remember even another Italian story in which at the first page there
are two of the artists, thinking about what to write... So they decide to
create a story in which Mickey is a crook, and Pete is the Police chieff
officier. At the end, poor Mickey gets in prison but he is traslated to
real-world when he mets his creators, which he blame for this weird story.

What's this story entitled, please?
