Hi all,

I'm missing a few recent issues of the Boom! USA edition of Uncle 
Scrooge. I guess these will eventually appear on the various online 
stores, but they don't currently have any stock.
If anyone has spares, or knows where they can be bought, can you 
please let me know?

I need: Uncle Scrooge 389, 392, 393
Donald Duck 356.

Getting these Boom! issues is getting quite tricky (it doesn't help 
that they apparently won't officially sell them to addresses outside 
the USA), and I wonder if the market price will skyrocket in future 
due to the very low print runs? (that assumes there is a secondary 
market interested in them though...)

Cheers,
  Mike.

Gentlemen,

 

I love this Anonymous Disney Comic Addiction Support Group!

 

Could someone tell me who is writing/illustrating the latest Disney comics (Scrooge, Donald, etc...) or are what we see available now "reruns" of previously published comics?

Thank you,

They're getting EXTREMELY difficult to find here in Canada. People here 
who've bought everything Disney for years  have stopped buying the Boom! 
issues because of the poor quality of the stories. Dealers here are hesitant 
to special order them for customers, as they end up unsold after the 
customers see how bad they are.

Someone on this list claimed that the current issues of WDCS are among the 
best Disney comics ever produced.  I picked up issue #711 this week to have 
a look, and it was VERY poor. The same garbage that Boom! has been producing 
since taking over the line. And it was all Mickey Mouse!! WDCS is an 
anthology title, where are the Duck 10 pagers and other stories??

All the Disney "duck & mouse" comics currently being published right
now by Boom! Studios are reprints, mainly from Europe.  But they never
have been published in America before (or in English, either), so they
aren't exactly "reruns".

Walt Disney Comics & Stories currently has been reprinting a lot of
Micky Mouse stories written and drawn by Casty.

Mickey Mouse just relaunched with a story written by Stefan Petrucha
and drawn by C?sar Ferioli Pelaez, but I don't know if they will be
sticking with those creators for a while, or will be mixing it up.

Uncle Scrooge is currently featuring many different creators, as long
as the stories are Duck Tales stories.

Donald Duck has been running a series about Donald as a spy for quite
a while now, but I don't have an issue handy to tell you who the
creators are...

OK, that's some bad comic-book-store running going on there.  If a
customer wants to special order something, the the comic book guy
should go ahead and do it.  And if the customer is so churlish to say
"no" after it comes -- well, I find it hard to believe that is
happening en masse.  Especially by now, anyone who special orders a
Boom! Studios Disney comic should know what to expect.

Hi everybody !

I recall these days a story I've read when I was a kid (about 20 years 
ago...) in France, but I can't really find it (Inducks, etc...)

So maybe one of you could help, giving me the story code or name , or the 
author, or date or something...

What I remember is a story of fruits which open (in slices) automaticly (I'm 
not sure if Donald and the nephews have found it, or if this is E.T.'s 
stuff...) but it comes to Scrooge ears, and he sees a new source of profit 
with these fruits...

Thanks for your help,

Nicolas Roudier

PS : it's not Barks or Rosa stuff, since I re-read and comment all their 
stories for my website http://duckstories.free.fr

Subject: New York Comic Con Report
Message-ID: <4CB4A57B.2060902@speakeasy.net>

  So, as some of you may know there was a comic convention in the New 
York and Disney publishing was there to promote some of their own books 
and comics.  Boom! Studios was also there to promote their books as well 
and I attended both panels.  So here are some tidbits and information 
that I gleaned from those.

First the Disney Comics panel:

The first talked about the various movie tie in comics that they were 
doing.  They mentioned the Tron Betrayal #1 that was just released last 
Wednesday and that the Graphic Novel would be out on Nov. 16.  Tron 
Betrayal tells the story of what happened between the last movie and the 
upcoming Tron Legacy movie.

The next subject was an upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean graphic novel 
called Six Sea Shanties.  Some of the stories will be prequels and 
others will tell stories between At World's End and On Stranger Tides.  
The artist for the cover will be Eric Powell who does the comic series 
"The Goon".  The stories are supposedly to be written by Rob Kidd, but I 
just found out that is a pseudonym for a team of writers who do PotC 
stories.  At least one story will feature the Zombie Monkey.

They also talked about Disney Digicomics.  One of the projects mentioned 
was upcoming Muppet Motion Comics.  They also mentioned an Epic Mickey 
digital comic project and were very proud of the fact that this is the 
first Disney comic project that was developed first as a digital comic.  
The prequel comics to the Epic Mickey game will be available, at least 
initially, through a free app on the iPad that will be released either 
on the 19th or the 20th.  They said "10 days", so I'm making a guess 
based on the date the statement was said.  The app will have the first 
comic for free and additional content will be uploaded as the weeks 
progress.  The prequel comics will be written by Peter David and cover 
the events in the Wasteland before Mickey messes everything up at the 
beginning of the game and thus will primarily feature Oswald the Lucky 
Rabbit.  It is unknown if the prequel comics will see print, but they 
would like that to happen.  They're just not sure if it will be as stand 
alone comics or be bundled with the Epic Mickey graphic novel.  And 
there will be an Epic Mickey graphic novel that "covers" the game, but 
they stressed that the game would have a lot more content.  They also 
mentioned that I think in 2011 there will be a book called "The Art of 
Epic Mickey" for those of you who would like that.

The Digicomics panelist also mentioned that they were trying to expand 
the digicomics line so that it would be web based so that more people 
could access, and obviously buy, Disney Digicomics beyond the PSP and 
iPhone/iPad users.

Further comics information was given about Phineas and Ferb where they 
had comic retellings of P&F episodes.

Of interest to mainly me was my question if Mickey Mouse Mystery 
Magazine would be released in Digicomics format, and I was told that it 
"was in the pipeline", but that could mean that it'll still never see a 
release in the US.  Still I remain hopeful as X-Mickey was released in 
as Digicomics.  Another question asked was about the Carl Barks and 
Floyd Gottfredson collections that will be released in 2011 with 
Fantagraphics and they said each volume should be under $100.  Of 
course, they didn't say how big the books would be so that may be an 
easy promise to make.

I believe that covers the Disney panel so I will go onto the Boom Kids 
panel and their Disney Comics offerings.

They are *very* happy with the sales of the Darkwing Duck comics and say 
that each subsequent comic seems to surpass the previous issue in 
sales.  The next Darkwing story arc will be "Crisis of Infinite 
Darkwings" and Negaduck will play an important role in the story.  Also, 
thanks to the success of Darkwing, in December they will be releasing a 
Rescue Rangers ongoing title.  Other series may be in the pipeline, but 
they don't want to put out too many comic at once as that could cause 
the whole line to suffer in terms of sales since people need to pick and 
choose if a lot of titles are out.

Boom! also announced that next year will the Walt Disney Comics & 
Stories 70th anniversary, so they're kicking it off with two special 
issues.  The January Issue of WDC&S will have 40 pages and contains a 
Don Rosa story he drew but did not write called "Forget-Me-Not".  The 
regular cover will have art by William Van Horn and I think the Deluxe 
cover will have art by Daan Jippes.  The Mickey Mouse and Friends comic 
will have a Floyd Gottfredson comic called "Pirates of Port Placid" (I 
think) that hasn't been reprinted in 40 years in its entirety and the 
Deluxe version of the cover will be a never before printed Floyd 
Gottfredson cover.  Don't remember who did the Regular cover.  Sorry.

All of these annoucements were part of the Boom! Kids 2.0 campaign that 
they were quite enthusiastic about and would answer questions about 
their Disney comic line with referrals to the website and the Boom! Kids 
2.0 campaign.

Finally, this is something I did not learn about in the panels, but it 
may be of interest to people here.  Apparently, they're collecting the 
Darkwing Duck stories from Disney Adventures and printing them as a TPB.

If anyone has any questions or comments, please let me know and I'll try 
to answer them to the best of my knowledge.

Greetings to Everyone!

Many thanks to August Paul Yang for his report!

A question from us older folks: is a "digicomic" animated, but available on-line, or is it basically a comic book obtainable through Kindle or iPhones, etc.?  Or is it a hybrid of some sort?  I found the website for Disney DigiComics, and it seemed to be regular comic book viewable through an e-Book, but then "game platforms" were mentioned, which made me wonder if in fact the comic is not animated.

And how is "Epic Mickey" being defined these days?  A very long adventure story?

Best Wishes!

I found the website for Disney DigiComics, and it seemed to be regular comic book viewable through an e-Book, but then "game platforms" were mentioned, which made me wonder if in fact the comic is not animated.

The safe answer to this, at this stage, seems to be that it's something of a hybrid, incorporating touch-screen navigation and certain "special effects" functions -- zoom, panel-by-panel (manual or slide show) viewing, maybe sound (including spoken dialogue), that sort of thing -- with standard comics pages. This, I hasten to say, is only speculation on my part, but it seems to be the angle the promotion is taking.

As far as I remember (I bought one on a friend's iPhone a few months
ago, just to check it out) it has no sounds (I'm sure it has no spoken
dialogue) nor animations. What it has is transitions between panels,
but you can disable them. I guess that for the iPad, being page-size,
there are no transitions either (on the iPhone you have to read the
story panel by panel).

The point is that they seem to have done a good job in *not*
trasforming a comic in animation.

There was something called "Muppet Motion Comics" that had some limited 
animation, but I don't think that's quite what you're getting at.  
Basically you're right, it's a comic book that's obtainable through the 
iPad/iPhones and PSP currently.  Some of the stuff that's available 
through Digicomics is also available through print such as the Wizards 
of Mickey and Ultraheroes stories, or were released in another country 
in print form, like X-Mickey.  The comics, at least in the PSP form, 
*sometimes* have sound effects and this weird viewing mode where the 
comic takes you through panel by panel, but I don't know how it would 
handle something like the two page spread in Darkwing Duck #1.

Frankly, I'd prefer the things in print because I dislike the panel by 
panel method of reading.  It feels... odd to me.

> adventure story?
"Epic Mickey" is a video game, so I don't think it's quite what you 
think it is, but there are comic tie-ins which is why I brought it up.

Greetings!

Many thanks to all the members who responded with the information about "digicomics"  !  We will see if this is indeed the future of the comic book.  There is still something to be said for paper, which does not need a battery!  

Best Wishes!
