<DIV>I've written to a few comic related personalities and a couple of comic news feeds to spread the word on Don. I got response from comicmix.com and got the reply I'm including below. I thought maybe some of you could provide a bit more information than I could. Barry, as your e-mail was publicly listed in the DCML archive, I hope you don't mind that I singled you out as a good possible source.</DIV>

<DIV>All of Mike's contact information is listed, if anyone else would like to talk to him. I'm also hoping to here from, or get mentions from: Neil Gaiman, Peter David and <A href="http://www.comicbookresources.com/">www.comicbookresources.com/</A> I've also mentioned Don on my myspace page. (myspace.com/gyozaman) If any of those other sources contact me, I will probably send the same information I sent Mike.</DIV></DIV>

<DIV>Yep, I've known Don for decades, and he's a regular on the convention circuit so I think our readers will know him, too. If they don't, they should.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Can you give me any details? When was the surgery? What's the prognosis? Will he be able to work after he recuperates? I'll run the full story.</DIV>

<DIV>Thanks!</DIV>

<P>I was wondering if you'd consider giving a shout out for Don Rosa, the prolific writer/artist behind many great Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck comics. He is spending the next six months recuperating from surgery for a detached retina, and I thought people might like to keep him in their thoughts and prayers.</P></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR></DIV></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
