Thanks Alton. It was a really fun decade. I have the memories. This book that you and I took turns owning was a beauty. This picture doesn't do it justice.

If anyone happens to have a raw AC4, I NEED scans/clean pics of the Inspector Donald pages (PLEASE). I'll try and make it worth your time. I tried, however, unfortunately, I am not much of a photographer and I did not have anyone with me to hold the alternate light source (to avoid shadows). mwotka and Yorick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOVE IT!! I have access to "reading" images, but I'm hoping to obtain some print-worthy scans. Can you imagine how Bobby might have developed if Wheeler-Nicholson had continued to control DC? I see this strip being the next Batman. Granted, it's O'Mealia's strip, but Bobby loses his father to the cartel/union after trying amateur sleuthing??!!! Dark stuff. My bad, that's how I WANTED it to end. Just did a re-read and Inspector Donald does not die.

They have a photo of the cover but not the details. A company called Chronicle Publications in the Philippines published a block of DC superhero titles in the late 50s/early 60s (Batman; Detective; Adventure; Superman; and Action Comics). As you can see, they were published for the South East Asia market and appear to be complete reprints of the North American issues. Interesting that they bear the DC logo. Does anyone know anything about this publishing arrangement? Should these be considered DC variants since they do bear the DC logo?

Although they don't share the same issue numbers as the North American versions they do share the DC logo and appear to be exact reprints story wise.

I may do one issue just so other collectors can get a taste of what they'd find. The book length is extended to put ads at the bottom of every page, along with subscription coupons. The color inks they use really pop! CGC has graded the first issue, and it's available on feebay (if you'd like to pay that price). pemart1966 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
