LoS 10

DON!

(SPOILER ALERT - STORY DETAILS ARE HINTED AT)
LoS 10 which was published in Norway yesterday was 
marvellous! I may have been in a particular good 
mood when reading it, but it really hit me as one of 
your most successfull stories. In a way it made me 
think of Asterix both in atmosphere and plot (the 
beleagured village, the presence of Julius C{sar, a 
bit of internal quarrelling among the beleagured 
a.s.o.), which is no small compliment.  
The dramatic half page was also, well, dramatic! I 
really long to hear how American readers will respond 
to the story (which will be in 95?)!

The references to Barks was also done very well (e.g. 
the car)! And I think you managed to untangle (or get 
together if that is a better expression) some "loose 
ends" from previous LoS-stories, which on hindsight 
made those even better.

Keep on with such stories, even if it means more work 
for you to build on "Barksian facts"!

And (a bit late - and I may be a bit of a heretic here) I 
have to say I did ENJOY your Olympic Story (even if it 
is not to be compared with your very best). The 
mathematical references and the viking helmet gag 
are among the best gags I have seen in a comic story.
