DIrishB said:Also, Icybro, you should change those images into links so as not to take up a bunch of disk space. The mods might have a problem with this thread because of all the images. Changing them to links to the images instead of the images themselves seems to prevent the threads from being deleted by the mods.
Icybro said:Thanks for the tip. I wanted to make a big splash with my first post, and now it sounds like it may be deleted. Can I edit it directly? Or should I start a new post with links instead of images?
Also: sorry, I didn't mean to steal you and Stoo's thunder. I can't wait to read your translation!
...and what a spalsh it is. Much better than, "Hi, I'm new here!" (I highly doubt your thread will be deleted.)Icybro said:Thanks for the tip. I wanted to make a big splash with my first post, and now it sounds like it may be deleted.
You're not off the hook yet! We still need the Bagheera cover and the missing 4 pages.DIrishB said:And you saved me the trouble of scanning the pages!
Not just France but Europe in general. Very interesting about the edited drawings. Good eye, indyclone!indyclone25 said:and it looks like they may have edited something in the shell comics --- it looks as if the dancing girl that that indy and marya save, clothes escpecially her top has been torn and the took off some of the drawing of her chest --- i'm just saying ...... cause in the france aren't they a little bit much free about nakedness?

(I never received an e-mail with the first 10. Strange.)
You mean in the last few pages? Yeah... that looks unnatural and wrong. If they wanted to edit that part, they should have just drawn the rest of her clothes back in.indyclone25 said:and it looks like they may have edited something in the shell comics --- it looks as if the dancing girl that that indy and marya save, clothes escpecially her top has been torn and the took off some of the drawing of her chest --- i'm just saying ...... cause in the france aren't they a little bit much free about nakedness?

Those pages seem to enhance the storyline... more Indy butt-kicking if nothing else!Ironic or just plain dumb that they used one of the deleted pics for the reprint cover.

DIrishB said:Stoo's working on translating them for us all. Give him a little time and we'll have the translated version here in this thread.

"Interesting" and frustrating all at the same time.DIrishB said:And most interesting of all: the original Bagheera version has the story taking place in 1930. The Shell reprint has it taking place in 1933.
I wonder if that was a mistake or intentional, and if so why they changed the years between the two versions.
Actually, I haven't even started on the translations as I'm still on vactaion (in sunny California for a wedding).DIrishB said:Stoo's working on translating them for us all. Give him a little time and we'll have the translated version here in this thread.

Will start tackling the project later this week when I'm back. Thanks for posting the missing pages & cover! Those will be first.
