Please make better quotes: it looks like you are refering to 3/13 or
31/3, while you are in fact refering to 11th of September.

That makes better sense. Lars is referring to Pinochet's take-over - one of
many incidents during the cold war - it apparently took place because
Pinochet and many with him feared Soviet influence or even control over
Chile (a new Cuba) if Salvatore Allende was allowed to stay in power.

hey, what the problem with me? I didn't write nothing, I say nothing about
Chile, I not ever live in Chile... and I think somebody is quoting something
I never say...

So about is all this? some april fool joke or something? I can see the fun,
sorry...

Whoa, thanks for the info, Linwood. I was facing this same predicament
myself. I have since sent email to the address you showed.

I tried writing Gemstone about this a month-and-a-half ago, but never got a
reply. Perhaps this time I will.

Thanks Again,

Wow! After over 1300 issues, the odometer has rolled over to volume 2! And I
had been thinking that the volume 1 designation was a joke. What caused the
old volume to end and the new one to begin?

Thanks David and Ola for replying.

Ola:

In the daily Gottfredson strip Mickey and Goofy only were a team on 8
stories in the 30:ies and 4 in the 40:ies. I only count longer
adventure stories. Then they teamed up again in some stories in the
50:ies. In most of the daily strip adventure stories Mickey were alone
or with Eega Beeva.

David:

IMHO, the tradition of Mickey and Goofy as an *unbreakable* pair,
*always* together, really starts in the late 1940s and early 1950s at
*Western Publishing*. Why?
Because Western had two fundamental funny animal plot types at the
time: the "Donald Duck" (put-upon lead accompanied by smart kids, bossy
girlfriend, and nasty neighbor) and the "Andy Panda" (straight man hero with
a wacky sidekick, most typically fighting crime). Fitting Mickey and Goofy
into formula two made them easy to write for. So they ran with it.

Myself:

I have to say I find the rather "unspectacular" reasons (for lack of a
better word) leading to this winning team fascinating. Even more fascinating
is the fact that it took nearly 20 years until Mickey and Goofy became the
*unbreakable* duo we know today from the adventure stories.

So, to conclude, it is probably not too far-fetched to say that Gottfredson
laid the seed for the duo, but others provided its breakthrough. Speaking of
Western Publishing, the honour probably goes to the prolific Paul Murry/Carl
Fallberg team. You can count the number of Murry-drawn MM adventure stories
NOT including Goofy on the fingers of one hand. In Italy, the same was true
for the dominant and influential writer Guido Martina, who began to write MM
stories in 1948. He certainly should be given some credit, too.

Well, the new Gemstone line of Disney comics has gotten another nice
bit of promotion. I buy almost all of my comics through a subcription
company called Westfield Comics. I think that Westfield is the premier
such service in the USA. I got the monthly catalog today and was
thrilled to see that they devoted the entire cover of this month's
catalog to the return of Disney comics! You can see the cover by going
to the following link: http://westfieldcomics.com/wow/hub.html

and then using the "Worlds of Westfield covers" link. It has a nice
picture of William Van Horn's cover for WDC&S #634. Inside the catalog
they give the two new Gemstone comics a "Recommended" caption and even
give an extra discount for WDC&S #634. So the thousands of people who
use Westfield to get their comics each month will be hard pressed to
miss the return of Disney comics! :) I already wrote Westfield and told
them how much I appreciate that they promoted the new Gemstone comics in
such a prominent way. Every bit of promotion helps!

I apologize if this has been mentioned here already, but according to <
http://westfieldcomics.com/wow/cod_e-o.html>, the "Mickey Mouse in Color"
hardcover will be back in June, for $231 US.

If they rerelease the popular edition, I'll definitely be buying it...

I couldn't help noticing the logo, which seems identical to that used
by Gladstone (see, e.g., http://www.brucehamilton.com/gladstone/).

BTW, was that comment that was posted the other day, about Gemstone not
being able to fulfil pending subscriptions from the first issues, an
April Fools' day gag, or should I begin to get worried? Not being able
to get the comics in person, and having recently learned that Gladstone
was the only US comics publisher who sold back issues, I'd hate to miss
Gemstone's first few issues.

Disney Adventures vol 13, no 3 (April 2002)

Continuing my listing of what's in this month's issue
of the only current source for Disney comics in
America...

Matt Feazel's content page doodles (Dizzy Adventures) are
given story code JZ712.

NOTE: The introduction to this issue's extra-large comics
section claims that all the stories feature dreams
(sometimes as a major part of the plot, sometimes as small
asides). However, I can't see any dream connection in the
Lizzy McGuire story...

NOTE: All of the comics in this issue -- except one --
occupy just the top 3/4 of the page (that's why there
are such odd page counts). The one exception is the Hair
Pair story, which spans the bottom 1/4 of all those pages.

NOTE: Yes, I noticed that story code JZ713 is used twice.

1) Kim Possible: "ChimPossible!", JZ713, 3 pages.
Story by J. Green. Pencils by G. Guler. Inks by J.
Albrecht.
Characters include Kim Possible, Ron Stoppable, Rufus,
Lord Monkey Fist and Bates.

2) Rufus: "Raise the Rufus!", JZ714, 3/4 page.
Story by John Green. Pencils by Tom Bancroft. Inks by
Howard Shum.
Characters include Kim Possible, Ron Stoppable and Rufus.

3) Lilo & Stitch: "Escape Velocity!", JZ715, 3 pages.
Story by M. Stewart. Pencils by A. Zanon. Inks by C.
Giorgilli.
Characters include Lilo, Stitch, Nani.

4) Monsters, Inc.: "Meal Appeal!", JZ713, 3 pages.
Story by F. Strom. Pencils by T. Bancroft. Inks by H.
Shum.
Characters include Mike, Sulley, Mike's Mom.

5) The Lion King: "Simba Size it!", JZ717, 2 1/4 pages.
Story by K. Kuch & S. Scarborough. Art by F. Grellet.
Characters include Simba, Pumbaa and Timon.

6) The Proud Family: "Face the Music!", JZ718, 2 1/4
pages.
Story by Michael Stewart. Art by Matt Maley.
Characters include Penny Proud, Dijonay Jones,
LaCienega Boulevardez and Zoey.

7) Spy Kids 2: "Face to Face with F.A.N.G.!", JZ719, 3
pages.
Story by S. Behling. Pencils by C. Norrie. Inks by D.
Krall.
"Spy Kids 2" is not a Disney property, it is copyright
Miramax Film Corp.

8) Tony Hawk: "In the Game!", JZ720, 3 pages.
Story by Larry Walkert. Art by Eric Jones.
Tony Hawk is a real person, not a Disney character. But
this story does appear to be Disney-owned...

9) Jet Pack Pets: "Pets in Slumberland!", JZ721, 3
pages.
Story by Michael Stewart. Art by Scott Koblish.
"Jet Pack Pets" is not a Disney property, it is copyright
Michael Stewart & Garry Black.

10) Lizzie McGuire: "Pop Quiz!", JZ724, 1 1/2 pages.
Story by Wendy Wax & John Green. No art credits.
Characters include Lizzie McGuire's cartoon alter-ego.
"Lizzie McGuire" is a live-action sitcom on the Disney
Channel.

11) Society of Horrors: "Dream On!", JZ723, 2 1/4 pages.

"Society of Horrors" is not a Disney property, it is
copyright Rick Geary.

12) The Hair Pair: no title, no code, 9 pages.
Story and Pencils by Charly La Greca. Inks by Sam Hiti.
"The Hair Pair" is not a Disney property, it is copyright
Charly La Greca.

It took me some time before I found out that this link is hidden under the
"Notes & Notices" tag. This is not the first place where I would look,
so maybe an even more "prominent" way would have had more effect...

> Every bit of promotion helps!

Indeed! 8-)

Dane:

This is not a NEW issue of Mickey Mouse in Color. Rather, this is just the selling off of old
stock. If you want one new, now is the time to get it. I doubt there will be reprints of
this.

In his Donald Duck universe guide,
( http://stp.ling.uu.se/~starback/dcml/chars/egmont-ddu.html)
David Gerstein tells that the Black Ducks from Barks' wdc 34 and the dogfaced
Tuku
tribe from Barks' wdc 211 are cannibals.

( extract :
>>>[dogface] Cannibals (MOC 41,WDC 211), [duckface] Cannibals (WDC 34) )

But in my version, these two tribes are not cannibals, they don't eat
peaople. The only
canibal tribes in Barks' story I saw were the tribes from Moc 20 (in the
first version, and
then redrawn and not canibal anymore after censor), and from Moc 41 (after
Donald's
words, but it is not proved that they actually eat people)

so have wdc 34 and wdc 211 been censored, or is it a mistake by David
Gertein, or did
he use the word "cannibal" to mean "savage, dangerous" instead of
"anthropophage"
