there are already Too Many Matildas in Duck comics (Scrooge's sister, disguised MDS)
Also Daisy's aunt (if she isn't Scrooge's sister), and, erm, you.
Yeah, I didn't list them all: also Grandma Duck's cousin in some translations of Bananas. Which is why I go with the Danish version of that one, and use the name "Amanda."
But I repeat my question: anyone know whether the McGreals/Rota story is a sequel to Adventure Down Under?
Then there is another category, stories which pick up a character used in one story by Barks, but which aren't really sequels to that story:
I know of two Dutch stories that fall into this category whose appearances are not listed on the INDUCKS: Rosita, Scrooge's dancing teacher from "The Christmas Cha Cha" appears in this story by Frank Jonker/Paul Hoogma and Bas Heymans: inducks.org/story.php?c=H+21160
And the barrister team (McHawk, McChicken, etc.) from "The Heirloom Watch" appear in this Jan Gulbransson story as the executors of Scrooge's estate. inducks.org/story.php?c=H+82096 . Although in this story there's only three of them (there were five in the original), and they have a larger role.
Oh, and Jonker and Hoogma also wrote a direct sequel to "Christmas on Bear Mountain" for Scrooge's 70th anniversary in 2017: inducks.org/story.php?c=H+2017-043 .

I'd like to see a story where we learn more stuff about Scrooge's twin that appears in 'The Phantom of Notre Duck'.
In the 18th episode of the saga dedicated to Fantomallard, the "original" (in the 1920s) Phantom is shown to be Henry Quackett, who designed and built Notre-Duck in 1916. Now, was it still Henry under that mask in the mid fifites, when Scrooge and the gang met him? That's still up in the air.

That's the Gervasio "Notre Duck" I have on the list (first post), is that right?

Just ran across the recent Paperino conquistatore vichingo, which features both Sharky and the Peeweegahs! So I have updated the list which is in the first post on this thread.
Well, it might be a "parody" Sharky, as the French synopsis suggests that this is set in the time of the Vikings, with lookalikes of the central cast as characters. But still, you could say that the Peeweegahs are the same tribe, just centuries earlier! Anyway, I don't list it as a sequel, just as a story that reuses Barksian characters. This is the first story by someone other than Barks and Rosa featuring the Peeweegahs!
By the by, have you actually read "Gensyn Men Den Gyldne Hjelm", or read a summary of it? I've long been curious to know what it's about and how well (or not) it meshes with Rosa's Lost Charts of Columbus…
That looks like there is a typo in that title. Danish "men" means "but" in English. That should read "Med" den Gyldne Hjelm, which means "Reunion with The Golden Helmet". I remember having that story when I lived in Denmark. I seem to remember that lawyer Sharky and the current McSue (Was that Chisel, or Swindle?) were trying to steal the helmet, and had a new angle to become owners of North America. If I remember correctly, it was published during the 1990s in an Anders And & Co. Issue, with the original, non-professional drawings of the 15 year old. I left most of my Danish comic books in Denmark, so I can't look at it. Can someone provide me the issue number. If so, i can see if it is among the 500 or so issues of A.A. & Co. I have with me here in Los Angeles. Or, if someone can give me the story code #, I can translate the Danish story description.

Rob, click on this and you'll see the Inducks page for the story. No story description on the page, unfortunately. Scrooge MacDuck did have a typo, but you'll see it's spelled correctly in my list in the first post on this thread.

There are so many versions of who is the phantom ghost of the Notreduck cathedral. Italian Fantomius -series claims that the ghost is actually the big brother of the Fantomallard who was the Fantomallard before the Lord John Quackett. But at the same time it contradicts the another story (Paperinik e l'architettura spicciola) in which the phantom ghost is a crazy monetary architect, called as the Lord of the manholes, who was forced to designed that cathedral, and then this hid in the catacombs and crypts of this cultural building.
On its idea and worldbuilding, however, the Fantomius story is better than this monetary architect story that was previously published before it. And the difference between the characters is also that the crazy architect has golden curly hair and bill with big teeth, while older Quackett has black mop hair and no visible teeth in his bill.
But if we are realistic, no one comic story by Barks tells who is behind the mask, leaving the phantom ghost an anonymous mystery who is Scrooge's doppelganger. Without explanation, no background story. But various non-canonical fan theories about this character have been put forward such as that the phantom ghost is a younger Quackett or or it is Magica de Spell in disguise. But since late Barks has pass away, we may never know what his idea was.

I still have that book! It was an extra free giveaway 32-page book to subscribers to Anders And & Co. packaged in with 1989's #42 issue. It contained only the children's 24-page amateur story writer contest winners' original story contest submittal, plus photos of them and a few AA adverts. The story featured Uncle Scrooge, Donald and his Nephews, Gyro Gearloose, Azure Blue, Lawyer Sharky, Flintheart Glomgold, and a representative of The Governor of Newfoundland.
Uncle Scrooge, Donald and The Nephews go on an adventure, returning to the icy seawaters off the coast of Labrador, to retrieve The Golden Helmet. They find it by using a newly-invented bathyscape, made by Gyro, to find the helmet on the ocean floor. They arrive there just when Flintheart Glomgold (in his own undersea craft) is picking it up. They fight him for it, and end up getting it themselves, using a magnet to pull it off the ocean's floor. That act keeps Glomgold from becoming the owner of North America. Scrooge is feted for being the hero who saved North Americans from the fate of having to pay rent to Glomgold for living there. But Scrooge, who thought he would get to keep the helmet, has to give it up. The Governor of Newfoundland (of which Labrador is a territorial subdivision) states that his provincial government is donating the helmet to their Provincial Museum (presumably in St. Johns). The authors (Jesper Madsen & Theis Christiansen) used "Borgmester" as the authority-which would be the Mayor of St. Johns. However, I feel that The Governor of Newfoundland would have jurisdiction over any historical artifact found in his province, rather than the mayor of a city not even within the territory of the province where it was found).
Here's a link to the cover of that extra bonus comic book:
As part of Anders And & Co.'s 40 year jubilee celebration, Jesper and Theis' whole Roskilde school class was taken on a vacation trip to Disney World in Florida.

So it was only available to subscribers? Most such 32-page extra books have accompanied the Scandinavian weekly in stores too, at least in later years.

Sorry, I was thinking of the Dutch extra books in later years. This extra book also was included in the shops as well. I didn't remember, because I got mine as a subscriber, because I was living in Denmark half the time at that time (1989), and the Editorship gave all its writers and artists subscriptions to the magazine.
