The Donald Duck strip is distributed by the Swedish syndicate Bulls
Presstjänst in Stockholm.
I guess they have the distribution rights in the whole of Scandinavia.
So any Scandinavian newspaper or magazine that wanted to publish the strip
could "subscribe" to it.
Unfortunately - as far as I know - "MetroXpress" in Copenhagen is the only
Danish newspaper that does so.
