It was/is issue #666 (perhaps that is an appropriate number? ;-)
I have the issue and a hardbound edition of the original story
From Italy, and while it is obviously translated into English,
And I'm not proficient in Italian, so I'm not sure how much of
The text has been eliminated, or toned-down for the American
Audience, I've definitely noticed images have been deleted (such
As the barbershop segment). Maybe 'cause it was felt the imagery
Was too "graphic" and violent for Americans and would thus create
An out-cry? Sometimes I feel kinda sad for the way we have to
Be spoonfed things so as not to upset us. But it's either that,
Or we get nothing! *sigh*

Ah, I didn't see David's reply until after I sent my response to Niel's
question.
From what I read from David, it sounds as if it wasn't toned down for the
American audience, but the images were deleted for space? And the option
Of re-printing a more complete version in another format is indeed hopeful.
Thanks, Rich Bellacera
