Can anyone give a definitive list of those Carl Barks Library 
stories censored compared to the originals. (Some censored
stories were mentioned in an earlier posting from Geier Hasnes.)
I have asked this of Geoffrey Blum at Gladstone but he declined.
It seems that this is a sensitive issue between Gladstone and 
Disney.

These are the stories that I know of:

  LICD 66 "Atom Bomb"
    Last panel; cash register redrawn to a pyramid of bottles
    
  LICD 14 "Darkest Africa"
    Natives redrawn
    Natives' dialogue changed
    References to cannibals removed from dialogue
    Panel 3 on page 15 removed, panel 4 extended
    
  LICD 10 "Voodoo Hoodoo"
    Natives and "Bop, Bop" redrawn
    Natives' dialogue changed
    Sharp teeth removed from all natives

  LICW 17 "Test at Frostbite Pass"
    "Bolivar" changed to "Bornworthy"
    
Thanks.

Greg Kay.
