Barks' Woodchuck Stories and Character Combinations

[Daniel J. Neyer]

Maybe it's due in part to the wonderfully bouncy Jippes artwork, but I
look forward to reading all of the Barks Woodchucks tales. "Hound of the
Moaning Hills" was hilarious and scary at the same time, and I liked the
"New Zoo Brews Ado" story as well.

I see what you mean; though it seems that Launchpad has more fans (at
least here on the DCML) than Egmont thinks. I've lost count of the
posters who have said they'd like to see a return of Launchpad. On the
subject of Jose and Panchito, I understand that Paul Murry drew a Jose
Carioca comic strip for several years; I've always wanted to see some of
those stories, but I guess they're not covered under Gladstone's new
non-comic strip license?
