]
No.120
This issue says "Walt Disney's
Comics and Stories" on the cover and is the only issue to use the
original
full title of the US Dell WDC&S issue that it's a reprint of, this
issue marks 10 years of publication for W.G.Publications, which is
perhaps
why it was done.
J36
A 64 page double sided comic,
shown
as it appears when opened out.
Issues No.10, G131 and J32
These three issues have Infinity
Covers, the comic shown on the cover is the comic itself.
No.189
This issue is incorrectly marked
as G189 on the cover.
No.205
The original artwork for the
cover
of this issue was drawn up on a page from a Sydney newspaper, you can
read
the classified adverts on the kite.
CP7
This issue is the only issue that
has 3rd party adverts inside it.
D19
This is the only issue where the
cover artwork overlays the publication indica on the top left corner,
presumably
done to give the cover a 3D effect.
G665
Wogan must have been having a bad
hair day when they printed this one, it's incorrectly marked as G659 in
the page 2 indica and the Barks story "The Mines Of King Solomon" has
had
one of the pages left out.
G219
This issue is the only real claim
to fame in the Australian run, as it has the worlds first English print
of a Carl Barks one page gag called "Blinders" on the back cover. This
gag was to have had it's first print in Dell issue US#19 but it was not
used and an advert was printed in it's place, which is rather ironic
given
the theme of the gag.
G654
This issue's cover
is a modified version of the Carl Barks drawn cover of Dell issue US#9
(see issue G39). The original cover showed the bush trimmed into a $
sign, but for this issue it was changed to 10%. Why did Wogan do this? well, I think
that they did it to protest Disney now charging them so much in
royalty, that they were only making 10% of the cover price in profit on
each issue.
