Subject: Life and Times #7

Well, the seventh chapter of the Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck just 
came out today in the States, and I wanted to e-mail this quickly before I 
forgot any of it. 

I loved it, as I usually do.  The way you hid DUCK on the cover was very 
tricky, Don.

I thought you avoided a major pitfall though, by making sure $crooge 
didn't see his destiny.  I can imagine how some purists might loathe that. 
 And your explanation of the Number One Dime was terrific, and will go 
down as Duck canon in my book. 

I don't know, though, DOn: That Bowerbird looked a lot like Magica's pet.

As soon as I get settled into the new school schedule, I'll let you know 
what I think of your series as a partial whole so far, from a newbie's 
perspective.

DAVID G: Uhm, this may sound horribly naive, but who drew the backup which 
you scripted?  I haven't read it yet, but it looks, at first glance, like 
William Van Horn, but I doubt it is.  Gladstone forgot a couple of credits 
in there.  And who was the original scripter?

(Now that I've gotten this down on e-mail, I'll use it for my next letter 
to Gladstone.  I love the way this works out!)
