Well, it's not a question to me, but "Lo$" is an abbreviation of
Don's "Life of Scrooge". This is a story which lasts for twelve
chapters and it tells about the early life of Scrooge McDuck. Don
based this masterpiece on "facts" about Scrooge's life in Barks'
stories.
Do you know which story I'm talking about? There are (I think) 10
chapters published here in Holland, I'm really longing for the last
two.
Do you know a lot of Carl Barks and Don Rosa?

If it's really a problem, maybe you can ask for a subscription at
Gladstone? We're living in a very interesting Duck-period again, with
an artist like Don. (And I really mean this, I don't say this just
because Don is a member of the forum.)

It sure costs a lot of money, but you can buy the "Carl Barks
Library" from publisher "Another Rainbow" (Who also publishes
Gladstone). It consists of ten sets, each containing 3 books. It also
includes a lot of unpublished artwork. I have this "CBL" (another
abbreviation!) and for me it was sure worth the money (and I paid a
lot more for it here in Holland).
According to Jakob Soderbaum (who is on holiday now) the CBL is being
reprinted now.
ALL:
Now we're talking about it: Are there members who already saw
Pocahontas? If so, is it a good movie? We Dutch people will be able
to see this movie for the first time in the autumn, so I like to know
if it's worth longing for.
Have a nice day!
