Hello, I'm new here. Truth be told, I've been a huge fan of Disney comics (especially the Duck Universe comics) since I was 11-12 years old, not to mention I have a pretty big collection of them as a result, so I decided, why not finally join this site? So, here I am.
Anyways, for those who don't know, back when Don Rosa was a teenager, around 1969 or 1970, he, with a friend, wrote and drew a Disney comics parody titled "Return to Duckburg Place". In the comic, which takes place several years after the Carl Barks stories of the 40's, 50's and 60's, Huey, Dewey Louie are in college, doing drugs and complaining about their disillusionment with life, while Donald Duck, fed up with years of being patronized by Scrooge, is conspiring to kill him for his money. The comic has allot of kinda dark humor, and mentions the fates of a number of other characters, such as Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Grandma Duck, Daisy Duck and Gladstone Gander.
I honestly never knew about this until a few weeks ago when I read the Comic Book Resources interview Don Rosa did about the new Fantagraphics Don Rosa collections. I was intrigued when I heard about this early comic of Rosa's, so naturally I looked up more about it. During looking it up, I've been able to find about half of the pages from this comic, but the rest I cannot seem to find. Aside from the first and final pages, two or three other pages have been uploaded on other websites, but that seems to be it. Is there anywhere online where I can find the rest of the pages? If not could someone on this site maybe upload them or the whole comic?
Lastly, I do knew there has already been a thread like this, but the link in that thread doesn't seem to work anymore for some reason.

I think I still got scans of the whole story. But to send you scans I need a mail- address to send them to, and the DCF-mail system has recently been shut down due to heavy misuse by Eastern European spammers. So how can it bee done?

Is the issue that you can't send through the forums? Because simply posting your email address in a way that's more bot-proof can be done by putting it in a JPG or different format. I know I'd love to see the story, myself.

I got it, thanks! Wow, that's dark. :P as expected, of course.
Sigvald, I noticed you haven't updated your website in a few years! I think it could use some updating!

THANK YOU AGAIN so much, Sigvald, for taking the time to send us that. I really appreciate it! I had a good time printing out each of the 9 pages and then making my own very early Don Rosa comic book.

As the one who started the thread, I would especially love to have the scans of the comic.

The scans has now been sent to those of you who have asked for them after the first mail was sent. I hope that all three of you have received them.
