KOMIX #163

[Apostolis Trikourakis]

Hi all

Here's what's in this month's issue of Komix:

* Cover by Don Rosa, from Picsou #347. I have put a
scan in:
http://www.geocities.com/komixgreekpage/temp/Komix163.JPG

* A two-page letters column. Among the letters, there
is one by Anders C. Sivebaek, talking about Don Rosa's
pre-work books and his Komix collection. So, here's
the answer from the editor of the column:

"Anders is one of the most ardent/warm Komix readers
we've ever met! The older readers will remember him
from his previous letters. From the extract [was your
letter very big Anders?] of that e-mail who sent us,
the most impressive is the fact that some people's
love, who are living far away, bring us all together.
Dear Anders, we thank you for your, always, polite and
proper remarks!"
The rest of the letters are about Aragones' "Space
Circus", digital comics and the new Lo$ chapter.

* A two-page column with "Komix News". Most important
(for me at least) is the part about my page! They put
a photo of my home page, the address and a nice text
explaining what a user will find there :-)
The rest of the news are about Don's new story with
Gyro, the 29th Angulem festival, the Italian edition
of "The Comics Journal", and the new movie "From
Hell".

* Romano Scarpa's "Le Delizie Natalizie" (28 pages),
first published on December 19th 1954. Story code I AO
54051-A.

* A three-page article titled "Opportunists and Dreams
in the Snow", subtitled "Don Rosa writes about the
Hearts of the Yukon".

* Carl Barks' "Gladstone's Usual Very Good Year" (10
pages), first published on January 1952, from Walt
Disney Comics and Stories #388. Story code W WDC
136-02.

* A four-page article titled "From Conan the Barbarian
to Groo", subtitled "Barbarian Comics and Heroic Goofs
from two Master Artists"

* Sergio Aragones' "Groo and Rufferto" (part 1 of 4),
first published in 1998. I hope this will be the last
non-disney story...

Next issue will come out on February 1st with 1 story
by many artists (I have no idea which story is that)
and part 2 of "Groo and Rufferto".
Finally, Komix' price is €2,64
Merry Christmas
