Uncle Scrooge #32, "That's No Fable," page 2, panel 6, just before McDuck
and the boys go off into Dismal Ooze Swamp in search of cheap land to
develop. Instead, they discovered the Fountain of Youth and two
hundreds-of-years old survivors from Poncey De Loon's exploratory party.

This was a great adventure story.

Nice, nice! I believe there are quite a few of us here who collect
original Disney art. I collect mostly non-Disney art and over the
years most of my Disney art has somehow been passed on to other
collectors again. I do have a Taliaferro Donald daily, one Vicar and
one excellent Van Horn page, a Paul Murry Mickey cover, some other
Murry drawings and the pencil preliminary for DELL Mickey Mouse #31.
If anybody is interested in the cover of Super Goof #22 (1972) I have
that one for sale too.

I just received my copy of WDC&S 639. The cover illustration by William
Van Horn impressed me very much. Has there ever been a cover with
Donald's head so prominently featured? Or created with less lines? There
is so much of Donald's character in this image!

You can see it here:

"This steed is good for about a mile!"

This line is from the Gyro Gearloose story where Gyro decides he is going
to get away from machines and inventions and live the simple life on the
desert. He even tells the Helper to get out of his sight, but he quickly
finds how hard the simple life can be and finds himself in danger of
dying of thirst. The Helper mounts a rabbit and rides to the rescue,
which is where Daniel's quote comes in. The Helper collapses too, but is
revived by a lightning strike, and manages to find the old prospector
that Gyro had seen and held up as an example early in the story. The
prospector sends his "assistants", a pair of robots, to bring Gyro in,
and explains to Gyro that he is a scientist who came to the desert to
escape from machines, but found he couldn't get along without them. This
leaves poor, confused Gyro not knowing "whether I'm coming or going!"

I'm taking this opportunity to mention the following: anyone who is interested in buying original artwork by Michel Nadorp (mainly covers, and mainly well-drawn 8-) can contact me in private e-mail.

In his story about Flipism (WDC 149), Barks consistently writes "Flipism" with one p, and "Flippist" with two p's. I know that these are not real English words, but are there examples of similar words in English where the -ism word is spelt differently from the -ist word?

Have we discussed this? I don't remember...

It's official. In Feburary, 88MPH Studios will join
Gemstone and TokyoPOP (and Disney themselves, in
Disney Adventures) as companies who publish Disney
comics in America...

And what Disney comic will 88MPH be doing?
TRON! Specificly, they will be publishing
a comic book based on the TRON 2.0 video
game, which was based on the movie TRON.

For more info, see

I was thumbing through some old comics a while back, and I think I came
across a bit of Barks Scrooge history that wasn't in "The Life and Times of
Scrooge McDuck" (at least I don't remember it in there). In "September
Scrimmage" (originally published in Mickey Mouse Almanac 1, 1957), Scrooge
reveals that he played football at Webfoot Tech. On the second page of the
story, he talks about playing "1870 football." I'm not much of a football
nut, but I really like the thought of Uncle Scrooge going to college
(especially since I'm a college instructor)!

I was just curious if Don Rosa had ever commented on this biographical
detail. I' don't own a copy of the "Life and Times" chapter where this
information would have come up, so it might be in there in some shape or
form. I am also interested in what the rest of you think concerning whether
this biographical detail can or should exist with the other known details of
Scrooge's life. Could the duck who left home at twelve have spent any time
enrolled in college? Does imagining Scrooge as a student make us view other
bits of his life differently at all?

Just curious!

The covers made by William Van Horn are usually very simple ( I don?t know
these stories? English names: That where Donald grows as big as the houses
and that "pie-story".). These covers really are simple. I have my dad?s old
Finnish Aku Ankka -comics and some of them are quite simple too.

For Harry F.:
The rule in proper English is that the consonant after a short vowel in a two
syllable word should be doubled to keep the vowel short (e.g. preserve the
relationship to the meaning of the root word). Applying that rule: "Flippist"
is the correct spelling, but "Flipism" is incorrect. It should have been
spelt: "Flippism". "Flipism" indicates an "ism" pertaining to "Flipe" (sounded
with long I, as Fly-p).

O ja, Harry,- je roddelflop is in

... but American english has its own rules-- regarding for instance the
doubling of the L in the past tense of verbs (ex: (UK) travelled /
traveled (US)).
Have you found something specifically on -ist/-ism words in American, Rob?
I have been trying to think of other examples, but can't find any pairs--
philanthropist (but philanthropy), harpist (but harp), ...

Oops! That is the wrong story code. The correct story code for this story is JZ761
