<P>Greetings!</P>
<P>A comment on the Wall Street Journal article, which I wrote about last time: when I was teaching German, I had my students read "<EM>A Christmas for Shacktown</EM>" in the German version, and then we compared it to the original. One could see that the Barks version was a little slangier, the jokes (at times) "punchier," but that the German version by Prof. Fuchs had its own merits.</P>
<P>It is sad that this tradition in America seems dead for the moment: maybe someone will resurrect things here the way Gladstone did in the 1980's. Surely there is some budding artist who would like to continue the Barks/Rosa Tradition: on-line publishing might be an alternative to the usal investment and risk in printing a paper comic book.</P>
<P>We will see what happens!</P>
<P>Best Wishes!</P>
