Every time I hear rumours about Steve Geppi, my mind can't
help wandering to Mr. Demesmaeker, of Gaston's fame...
Will he really sign the contracts, one day ?

To Rich Bellerica,
Thanks for the House of Mouse link. Very interesting, I hadn't come across that site before. There still seems to be a discrepency in the way Horace Horsecollar is drawn. This discrepency seems to have something to do with the medium ie comics vs film. Some comic book artists still draw his nose in a downward angle as Gottfredson used to and with rounded ears. Other illustrators draw his now at a horizontal angle and his ears as pointed as was the case in later shorts and in the House of Mouse. I wonder what advice the Disney Co gives on this, if any. (PS this is a legitimate DCML topic as Carl Barks included Horace in one of his oil paintings!)

You raise some fascinating points, some of them off topic. I would like to respond but do you want me to do so via DCML or your own email ( I did try your email address but the message was returned).

Most likely it will have no effect at all, because:
a) That story was finished before Don Rosa ceased working for Egmont.
b) Don Rosa has already been payed for that story.
c) The actual issues (Scandinavian weeklies #49, etc.) are
most likely completely produced, so that it would be too
late to have them changed or removed anyway.
If Don's article about this story is printed in Norway and Denmark,
and dropped in Sweden it will be because the Swedes dosen't publish
this story in an enclosure like in Norway and Denmark. It will have
nothing what-so-ever to do with Don Rosa's current relationship to
Egmont.

Disney comic books are returning to the US!!!

Hi all!
Take a look at this:
http://www.comicon.com/cgi-bin/pulse.cgi?http%3A//www.comicon.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi%3Fubb%3Dget_topic%26f%3D36%26t%3D000441
Disney comic books are returning to the U.S.
The local comic book stores have been missing an icon since
February of 1999, when Gladstone Comics ceased publication of
new Disney Comics. Although a few comic strips still appeared
in Disney Adventures, there were no new issues being produced.
In 1993 Disney stopped publishing their own comics and Gladstone obtained the rights for distribution and publication of new
Disney material. Shortly after that time, Marvel Comics acquired
the rights to publish all Disney characters created post 1980.
During the mid '90s Marvel published Aladdin, Beauty And The
Beast, The Little Mermaid, Disney Hits, and Gargoyles. When
Marvel's rights to continue publishing these characters expired
in 1995, they did not renew the rights and the titles were
acquired by Acclaim Comics, which sometime later ceased
publication of titles. Gladstone continued to publish Disney
comics featuring characters created prior to 1980 until 1999,
when they chose not to renew their license with Disney.
THE PULSE has learned that Steve Geppi, who had been in
negotiations with Disney for years to obtain the license,
has acquired the license to produce new Disney Comics.
According to sources, the first new Disney Comics are supposed
to arrive in stores in April. The titles will be published
under Geppi's Gemstone Label. The two initial titles are
Uncle Scrooge and Walt Disney Comics. It is unknown at this
time if they will contain all new materials or reprints.
A source close to Gemstone told THE PULSE that it was assumed
the bulk of the content would be translated reprints from
foreign editions appearing since titles ceased publication
in the US as well as some all new source materials. THE PULSE
has also learned that Geppi has hired the core crew from
Gladstone to handle the editorial chores on the new series.
John Clark, Gary Leach, and Sue Daigle-Leach will be the
creative force behind this new Disney incarnation.
---------------
So hopefully Don Rosa can soon read the last of his own stories
in his own language again!
Sigvald :-)

Minor correction: Strobl did not write the stories he drew, so you can't say
he is "inspired". Probably a writer was told (by an editor) to write an
adaptation of a TV show, and they had Strobl draw it. That happened several
times.

For the record: the DCML is about all Disney comics. Not just Barks. So even
if Barks was never involved with the character, Horace *is* a legitimate
DCML topic.
(And BTW, Barks also drew Horace in at least one story.)

I didn't read "Grandpa", I read "Grandma". And I also read "interest" in
stead of "interst". I am amazed about myself: usually I notice such typos...
BTW, I had no idea what you meant with the subject "Free shot".

The story I was referring to is an American story from the 1950s! I only
mentioned the Danish reprint because I was replying to a Dane (Soeren).

Sure. Grandma Duck tells about the past, and we see her and her husband in
flashback scenes.

I don't recall the exact contents of the requests. But I think the "Whammy"
story was one of the Gregory/Strobl stories that were much in demand.
Rightfully.

Grandpa Humperdink Duck?
Message 360 -
2002-11-19 at 18:51:34
Since we're on the subject of Grandpa Duck (by way of Grandma), is it
generally held, here on the List, that Grandpa "Humperdink Duck" is indeed
the same character as Donald's Grandpa Duck depicted in the Donald Duck
cartoon short "No Hunting" (Jan. 14, 1955)?
In both cases this "Grandpa" is deceased. What I like is that the cartoon
gives us some insight into the whacky character Grandpa was.
Thanks,
Rich Bellacera
