Thank you.. I consider myself a 'regular' poster and it's nice to know
whether the postings are appreciated (though some of my postings may be
useless trash...).

As for the number of members: weren't we 50, Per?

Do what I did: I bought the last Disney issue of 'DD Adventures'. It contained
a nice Van Horn story, a 10-page Barks *and* an advertisement of Gladstone
showing all 6 covers of their first issues. 3 of them are by Rosa.
The size of these covers is almost 1/4 page, which already shows a lot of
details.

Next month I have to decide whether to buy Gladstone's comics *just* for
a bigger copy of the (excellent) Rosa covers, or just stick with the
smaller copies of them...

Right. 8-)
