By looking through my very own (and old) collection of Disney french comics, I was able to find two Talespin comics!

I think I had never seen them anywhere before, I think they may be "exclusive".

Here they are :

http://www.animationsource.org/sites_content/talespin/download/comics/Vertiges.zip

They were in terrible state, good thing it doesn't show on the scans (I used a few tricks to improve picture quality, although they're still a bit blurry)

Don't read them yet - if some of you can confirm they've never seen them, I'll translate them into english.

One of the two stories is about Baloo being...afraid of heights. Yeah :lol:

The thing is, according to that list, 10 comics had been released in France :

Not including some other countries, apparently.

So that's a lot to look for...

It's hard to be sure, but I think the 10 french comics you mentioned are exclusive. I ran a INDUCKS search ( http://coa.inducks.org/ ) for the story code and I also did a wider search for all comics featuring Baloo, so unless I'm mistaken, those comics appeared only in France. Also I've never seen them before. Granted, I still haven't seen all the TaleSpin comics published in the US, but I've seen most of them. The "Volcano of Gold" comic is the only one I know of that was originally published in France, then translated and reprinted in the US. If it's concluded that no English equivalents exist for the french comics, it would really be great to have them translated (possibly for the first time ever!) Thanks for the downloads!
