Perhaps you or others would like to (re)read the perhaps most sad story
of all times--my personal favourite in that category. More grief and
sadness and bad luck is impossible to find:

Ennio Missaglia's terrible (and great!) "Le avventure di Paperin
Cenerentolo" (I TL  306-A) from 1961 drawn by Luciano Capitanio, who's
intrinsic sad style worked better than ever. A true milestone that runs
sixty very touching pages. Have "fun" :-/

(I usually skipped that story as a kid, not because it was badly drawn
or written or anything, but simply because I couldn't cope with
it...wonder if we'll ever see stories like that again...sigh!)
