A couple of minor nits:

1) The code implies that it was made in 1971. A typo?
2) There is no Paul Arens in the creators index, but there is one *Mike*
   Arens there. What gives?

Just like those newspaper office stories by Strobl, these constitute a
subgenre of their own, except these are...well, *weird*... They are certainly
some of the most bizarre Disney comics I've seen. Hubbard's artwork is very
loose here, and it fits these wild stories perfectly. HDL are absent for some
reason but OTOH Donald's cat takes a rather prominent role in the mayhem.
Great stuff -- I wish it was better known outside Scandinavia.

>  Try these: EXTRA 4024, 4033, 4051, 4079, 4120, 4130, and 6066...

Say, could you point out in which issues of AA&Co (and hence KA&Co) these
appear?

And why is it that all this great material was X- or S-coded and not pub-
lished in the U.S?
