Er... On the cover it clearly says ?3.70, not ?3.40, for Finland...
It is also possible to subscribe to Kalle Anka & C:o. According to last
week's issue (22/03), the price for one year is SEK 895 (or SEK 995 for
"other countries"). It does not tell which countries are "other
countries," though, but the previous lines tell where to pay if you live
in Sweden or Finland, so this could mean that Finland is not one of the
"other countries," meaning the same price for both countries.

Going farther from coast it gets more difficult to find Kalle
Ankas, at least I don't remember seing them in kiosks. Academic
Bookstore naturally has it, but they also have Disney comics in
German, for example.

It costs 1,90 EUR. On the other hand Kalle Anka has more pages
(but don't they also waste - sorry, use - more pages for jokes
and that kind of stuff than Aku Ankka). And let's not forget
Kalle Anka's toys either <grin>.

Hi everyone. It appears that Soeren's "chat room" might be difficult for some
of us to get to. And, others of us don't want to use a chat room. They don't
want to stay on line very long. Because of this, I think Cord's generous offer
to make his site accessible to both chatting AND just leaving an e-mail post
(as I understand it), would be the best solution. If I understand it correctly,
one can go there, peruse the thread titles, pick one if interested, read it,
and make a reply post or original thread post, without registering. I did
that. I assume that if one sees a post he's interested in, he can copy that
into his hard disc, and get off line quickly. Then, he can leisurely type his
reply, and get back on line to quickly submit it to the forum. I don't believe
it would be necessary to have the postings sent to each off-topic "list member"
who requests it. But Cord, please clarify that for us. Would it be possible
also to "join a new OFF-Topic mailing list" and get daily postings sent?
Personally, I wouldn't want THAT. I already have too much mail to sort through.
For ME, it would be easy enough to go to Cord's sight, scan the posting titles
quickly and see if there is anything I'm interested in (e.g. only go there when
I see a comment at the end of an "official DCML posting that notifies readers
that an OFF-Topic offshoot thread from this post is now moving to Cord's
auxilliary site. That DOES NOT mean the dcml thread will stop!!!! Nobody who
is ONLY on original DCML will miss anything! The way I understand it (Cord,
please clarify), those who wish to receive digest mailings or individual
mailings of all postings on this Off-topic list, will also be given that OPTION.
It seems to me this will give those of us who are interested in the subjects
that move to politics, history, culture, science, or other entertainment will
now have a place to go (and not feel like guilty lecturers and/or spammers).
However, "You said"-"No I didn't say...." and "You meant..." "I didn't mean..."
discussions should NOT even be on Cord's board. THAT type of dialogue should be
sent in PRIVATE E-mails, only!!!!
What do all of you think?

East Bloc Disney comics: I traveled in Hungary in 1986 and 1988. I remember
seeing Disney comics there. I can't remember which year, but suspect it was
the latter, as the publisher was an "Egmont Franchise". David, can you find
out for us what year the Egmont-related Hungarian publishing started. If it
was 1988 or before, it was BEFORE the Eastern Bloc final collapse. I did NOT
see any Disney comics in Czechoslovakia during those years.
Regarding Mickey Mouse Annual: I haven't seen any listings on their value. But,
Ican see that they must be British publications (OR Australian?), due to the
spelling of "favourites". The inclusion of the letter "u" proves that the
publication is not from USA. It is not likely to be Canadian, as I don't
remember ever seeing any comics produced only for the canadian market. We DID
get some "different comics", in that comics that contained adverts for USA
market were sent to Canada with the adverts removed and extra one-page gags in
their place. When I moved to USA and picked up better condition copies of many
of my old "Canadian vended comics", I found advertising in place of some of the
gag pages. Was this "Mickey Mouse Annual" published by the same publisher as a
weekly British Mickey Mouse comic book?
