Nice to hear Jippes is "back". The so-far-latest of his Barks-JW
stories was printed in here over a year ago, so the brand-new
Jippes/Barks stories have been even more rare than brand-new Don
Rosa stories.


Here's Inducks codes for the original stories and Jippes' versions
at the moment:

W US   71-01 - King Scrooge the First - (unknown)
W DD  126-01 - Officer For A Day - H 95145
W DD  138-01 - A Day in a Duck's Life - H 98085
W JW    6-01 - Peril of the Black Forest
W JW    6-03 - Life Savers
W JW    7-01 - Whale of a Good Deed
W JW    8-01 - Let Sleeping Bones Lie
W JW    8-03 - Bad Day for Troop 'A' - H 92002
W JW    9-01 - Looter of the Lake
W JW   10-01 - Maple Sugar Time - H 94001
W JW   10-02 - Bottled Battlers - H 94141
W JW   11-01 - Traitor in the Ranks - H 92085
W JW   11-02 - Eagle Savers - H 99044
W JW   12-01 - Hound of the Moaning Hills - D D 2001-015
W JW   12-02 - Storm Dancers - H 92012
W JW   13-01 - The Day the Mountain Shook - H 92051
W JW   13-02 - Gold of the '49ers - H 92107
W JW   14-01 - Duckmade Disaster - H 92001
W JW   15-01 - Wailing Whalers - H 98239
W JW   16-01 - Where There's Smoke
W JW   17-01 - Be Leery of Lake Eerie - D D 2002-023
W JW   19-01 - Teahouse of the Waggin' Dragon
W JW   20-01 - New Zoo Brews Ado - D D 2002-001
W JW   21-01 - Music Hath Charms
W JW   22-01 - The Phantom Joker/Highwire heroes - H 98254
W JW   23-01 - Hark, Hark, the Ark
W JW   25-01 - Captains Outrageous


But some questions,
Jippes' version of W JW   14-01, the Duckmade Disaster is 12 pages,
where as (by the Inducks) the original version had *13* pages. What
was the reason for that? Did Jippes reduce the story by cropping some
story panels, or did the original printed version have material that
was not scripted by Barks?

Also wonder why is Jippes doing the stories in this order (there's
much no order), skipping some stories over? Will he be allowed to do
all the stories, even W JW   21-01 that was already remade in the 90's
by an other Dutch artist? (at now Jippes isn't working for the Dutch,
so why not?)
