June 30th 1952

English spelling is "balaboo", "balabu`" is the original Italian.
It was published on July 24th 1960

The English name should be Jubal Cock, but they didn't like "cock", so
changed it into Jubal Pomp. (check this out:

His first story was: "Zio Paperone e il ratto di Brigitta" (written and
drawn by Romano Scarpa), published on February 12th 1961. (Norwegian title,
before you ask, is "Dobbelt kidnapping")

> 19. Where can I find a good scan of "Filo Filur"?
