Then Jonathan said:

OK see - I can take the Phantom Brat, but I just don't think I could ever
accept what I've now officially dubbed "Hubris, Doomis, and Lewdness". :P

As for Felix the Cat and the case of the dissapearing nephew: Obviously
Felix either ate the other one or stuffed him inside the magic bag alongside
Area 52 and the Loch Ness Monster. BA DUM TISH!!! (emphasis on dum) ^_^

JOE WROTE:

...And, didn't Popeye have FOUR identical nephews in the Famous Studios
cartoons?

AND I REPLY:

I remember four -- Peepeye, Poopeye, Pipeye, Pupeye.

AND I RESPOND:

It's a wonder Frederick Wertham didn't jump all over the comics industry for
what he would have discerned to be the obvious use of fertility drugs by
"funny animals". Oh wait, such drugs didn't appear until the late 1960s, so
that's one thing Wertham couldn't accuse the comic critters of.

So, what was in the water that comic characters drink that led to such an
astounding output? Whatever it was, it must have had a terrible side
effect, causing the premature demise of so many parents and leaving the
rearing of all these kids to uncles and aunts.

I've been thinking of ordering some back issues of Gladstone's Carl Barks Library in Color albums, and I wanted to ask, before ordering, if the CBL in Color version of Voodoo Hoodoo is the "censored" one or not. I have the revised version in one of Gladstone's first-run albums, but would buy the CBL in Color album if it's the original version. If anyone knows the answer, please let me know.

Depends on what you call "censored". This is off the top of my head, so
a detail or two may be askew. When the story was first published, the
word "dead" was not used in Dell comics, so a zombie was defined as "a
man who won't stay done fer". When it was reprinted, black dialect
wasn't used, so the definition was changed to "a man who won't stay dead".

Is one of those uncensored? Which?

Quack, Don
