That's an issue for (adult) advertisers only, as far as I know.

Thanks for the picture! This the debut publication of a brand-new story,
created earlier this year, by Mau Heymans (script and art) and Kirsten de
Graaff (script). In the story, Donald is addicted to a homeshopping
television show. ("BelSel")
The script was submitted in February 2004, and drawn in the period shortly
afterwards. I know, because I've proof-read and judged almost-finished
versions/edits of the script in January, before it was submitted.
What do you think of the story? Not having that issue (yet?), I haven't
seen the finished and published end-result.
Is there someone who can make readable scans of the full story available
for me in *private*? (By using a secret, private URL, for example?)

I don't think so at all, having seen an earlier issue of this exclusive
advertisers series, approximately one or two years ago. To my mind, it's
clearly intened for "insiders-only", with a very different target than
the regular, real Dutch Disney comics.
Only the *stories* in these exclusive issues are (mostly? always?) suitable
for other Disney comics. So, I assume (wish!) the BelSel-story will sooner
or later appear in the Dutch weekly Donald Duck Weekblad, too.

Looks interesting! If only because of knowing that Daan Jippes also writes
on internet! I'm going to read his comments, later. Thanks!
