Gideon McDuck is going to appear in American Stories. That is so cool.

Quote from user: DarkAshQuote from user: Fritz BaughMr. Gerstein, Mr. Gray, SOMEBODY let IDW know before it gets to press:

It's Donald Duck #368, not #268. That one's already been done

Good catch, Fritz. I wonder how they could have overlooked something like that.

I also just made a post on IDW's message board pointing this out. If I don't see or hear any reaction in a few days I guess I'll resort to emailing them.

This stuff is important goshdarnit (lol)

Quote from user: AngilasmanNice! Check out the really nifty variant cover to Donald #1:

I am really looking forward to these new Disney comics! And we still have Mickey Mouse and Walt Disney's Comics and Stories to look forward to as well.

I don't like the new logo for the Donald Duck series. It's been used for the Dutch weekly since 1998, or, if you want to include earlier versions using the same font, since July 1961. I'm kind of used to seeing it only on Dutch issues (and I've seen it a *lot*). So there goes my effort into making a distinction between the European "Disney comic books" and US "Disney Comics".
tl;dr: You've changed a thing and I don't like it for weird fan reasons. Pay absolutely no attention to me.
But look! There's a hidden Panchito behind the logo on the sub variant! And I will admit that the Uncle Scrooge logo is pretty cool.

I don't really like the Donald Duck #1 cover for non-subscribers; it's just re-used Dutch artwork from years ago, drawn by Jan-Roman Pikula (who is a brilliant artist, but this cover simply isn't his best work of all time). I really like the subscribers variant, but I guess that version won't be available to non-subscribers like me.
The cover to Uncle Scrooge #2 looks fantastic! Amazing artwork (in my opinion, this cover is even better than the actual story that will be printed in the issue :P).
And I hope they will change that typo on the cover of Uncle Scrooge #2 ('Heyman' instead of 'Heymans'). Of course, it doesn't really matter, but it does look kind of sloppy, doesn't it?

I really don't like Derek Charm style: look at that Hewey, it's horrible!
The other covers are very pretty, instead. And it's a great thing they're going to print "Gamberi in salmì" in US.

I dig his style. Then again, I've always had a thing for different artists making characters their own. I hope he'll get a chance to do a story one day, even if it's a short one.

Yeah, the regular cover is lame. Not the drawing itself, but the composition is crap and the fact they're obviously using coloring to stretch the image beyond it's original borders (look at the left side of the image) gives a very poor impression. I understand there's probably a limited amount of pre-existing artwork relating to this particular story, but if this is all they were able to find maybe going with a generic, all-purpose image of Donald would be a better choice.

Just a human error that, happily, we've still got time to correct. I've been "Gernstein" a few times at various publishers in the past.

Somewhere in the IDW publicity, I introduced a typo where I referred to DONALD DUCK continuing with issue "268" rather than the proper 368. Above, Fritz and DarkAsh already noticed the results. Would you believe Dr. Zantaf hypnotized me and... nah, we'll get the numbering right.

What is the meaning of a subscribers' variant? Is this for people that subscribe to the title at their LCS or for people that subscribe to the comic book via mail?

I believe it is for ppl who subscribe via mail. The standard version is the version seen at an LCS.

I don't have a lot of time at the moment to chat, but I've placed my Uncle Scrooge #2 cover pencils + final w/ unobscured logo up on tumblr and deviant art for those who wish to view/critique it! :)

Boy, I can only WISH that this comment was an indicator that Luciano Bottaro was going to see his US debut in the near future. :P

I found on Amazon very interesting book.
http://www.amazon.com/Uncle-Scrooge-Pure-Viewing-Satisfaction/dp/1631403885/
It looks like a preview of the first TPB from IDW.
I wonder about the number of pages. 96. How many issues it will be collected? 3? 4?
The price is very attractive (although this can be reduced size).
