I'm looking for the creation dates of all the Don Rosa's stories.
It's impossible to find (inducks, etc...). Only the publication date is (not
always the month) mentionned.
I ask Keno about that and he told me that he never kept these information.
Does anybody have it ? Or knows a mean to reach it ?
Maybe ask the publishing companies ? I think there are archives somewhere...

I think there are two ways you could take, although I'd
strongly advise you against trying to burrow your way into
this kind of information.
One way is to check Don's messages in the DCML archives.
Usually, he tells us when a story is finished, or which
story he is currently working on, or sometimes even when
he sent Egmont a script. And Don has been on this list
since he worked on the Life and Times, or maybe even
earlier.
The DCML Archives:

Another way might be to contact Sigvald Gr?sfjeld, since
this is precisely the sort of information he takes an
interest in, so maybe he can help you further. Sigvald has
done a page called 'Don Rosa Statistics', about Don's
annual production, including an approximation on when Don
worked on which story. You can find Sigvald's e-mail
address at the bottom of this page:

Hi David & Everyone
> It's only very slightly abridged (missing is a
short sequence set in Hades' barber shop; originally,
a rather
critical panel of plot exposition was also deleted,
but we restored
that).
Thanks in advance for the restored scene, but what was
the cause of deletion for Hades' sartorial adventures?
I'm rather sensitive to the cutting (pardon the pun)
of Barbershop scenes since performing Woody Allen's
The Schmeed Memoirs in junior high speech club
competitions. (The Schmeed Memoirs is a short story
Allen wrote detailing the fictitious recollections of
Hitler's barber.)
Nice touch including it in issue 666.

History of Disney comics in Europe

I know the history (broadly) of Disney comics in U.S., but I was
wondering how they came to be in Europe. Was Egmont's predecessor the
first (name escapes me just now) European distributor? When did this
happen exactly?

Egmont's original name was Gutenberghus. The director of Gutenberghus's
magazine division was called Dan Folke (a very creative and artistic person
who also wrote many hit songs). In the late 1930s he planned to publish a
Disney comic book in Denmark, but World War II prevented it.
Shortly after the War he went to Hollywood, negotiated with Walt Disney
personally and got the publishing rights for Scandinavia and Germany (the
story goes that Disney was so impressed by Folke's singing/piano-playing
that he made a deal with him instead of a bigger Swedish publisher).
Because of paper shortage, Folke had to wait until 1948/1949 before he could
launch a Donald Duck book in Norway/Sweden/Denmark. A few years later he
founded a German subsidiary (EHAPA) and entered an agreement with the Finish
publisher Sanoma. So the Germans and Finns had to wait until 1951 for their
books.
(By the way: EHAPA was named after the initial letters of Gutenberghus's
founder, Egmont H. Petersen. This is also why Gutenberghus later changed
their name to Egmont.)
Kind regards
Niels

Try to track down David Gerstein's excellent essay on Disney comics in

This is up to our Italian indexers.
But did you try automatic translation, for instance using Altavista or
Babelfish?
You may get some unexpected results, like "I am a ventilator of Shoe"
instead of "I am a fan of Scarpa". But for the bulk of the text, it
could be of help.

Yes, I know about those options. My post was meant as a friendly

english. But thanks anyway, Harry.

Question about upcoming "DuckTales" collection

Perhaps someone at Gemstone can help with this question. I just read a description of the upcoming "Carl Barks' Greatest DuckTales Stories" Volume 1. In the description I read it says it will be in smaller format like Donald Duck Adventures and Mickey Mouse Adventures. For some reason, I had the idea it would be published in the normal TPB size like World of the Dragonlords was. Can someone tell me which size "DuckTales" will be published in? Thanks in advance

Hi all:
The DuckTales books will be in the prestige format trim size (approx.
6.725" x 10.18") using DDA/MMA paper stocks. In short, just like
Dragonlords.
You can consider this official, 'cause I'm editing them.

Well...
Let me just pop in and ask 2 questions.
How much will this book cost, and how many pages will it have?
And why is it called DuckTales , like the Disney cartoon?
Wount people think that it is a magazine with the disney-style-painting?

I hope it's not terribly rude of me to point out that they properly
should be called "Carl Barks's Greatest DuckTales Stories," and not
"Carl Barks' Greatest DuckTales Stories?" Since the word "Barks" isn't a
plural, you can't use the rule for plural possessives on it.
