I recently came across a Mowgli story, published in a rare book in late '68 in France (scan thanks to GGg).
I've been unable to identify this story, but it looks like Al Hubbard work (click for higher resolution):

Does anyone know its origin?
The story is 5 pages long and the full book is at:

That's GOT to be Hubbard. But the code says it was produced by French Disney. Could he have worked directly for them???

Rob, that "code" is actually just a standard copyright??I've seen many stories that originated in one country's comics reappearing in another country, with exactly that kind of local copyright added.
Anyway, it's definitely a Hubbard-drawn story. Without having the resources immediately on hand to know for sure, I suspect it's an edited version of W 10217 A-02 ("Guardian Angel"); the Inducks description seems to match, though this publication obviously drops the splash panel and some more material as well.

I can't read it because it's not in English or Spanish.

Thank you David, you are right this is indeed W 10217 A-02.
