>but for a while the postal rules required at least 2 stories in each comic 
>magazine with separate characters...

Could someone please give more information about this very odd rule? When it 
was stated and how long it lasted? And WHY postal officers dictated the 
insides of comic magazines (any requirements for other types of mags?)?? And 
how they were able even to do it?
How this effected to other comic books? I know Barks had to made changes to 
some of his stories.
