Halloween Scream is a mini comic that comes bundled in a pack of several copies and are intended to be given out to trick or treaters.
I would also like to ask. Despite the printing issues that IDW is currently having, are the Timeless Tales hardcover series still planned to continue and will any of the content from Walt Disney's Comics and Stories aside from the Zodiac Stone storyline be collected in hardcover format?
If someone working with IDW could answer these, that would be great. Thanks.
Yeah, September will be a low month, because there will be neither a quarterly (D&M, WDCS) nor a seasonal special, and the new title (what's it being called again?) won't have started. Most months we'll have three comics, plus DuckTales, if that is going to be monthly after September.

Matilda, do you work with, or are you affiliated with IDW Disney Comics?

Nope, I've just been trying to keep track of the new publishing schedule. If I worked with IDW, I'd remember the name of the new title! When I say "we'll have" I mean us readers, I'm not speaking for IDW.

I see. I've forgotten where you are located. Where, exactly is that? (if you don't mid my asking )

The new title is called Walt Disney Showcase, I believe. Interestingly, both Donald and Mickey and Walt Disney Showcase existed before, the former under Gladstone II and the latter as a Gold Key publication. Wouldn't it have been interesting if IDW chose to continue their traditional "legacy" numbering along with their #1 designations? I don't think either was numbered too high when they were canceled though.
EDIT: Just looked up this "O.K. Quack" character ... looks like he's the Duck universe's answer to Eega Beeva.
yes, I was just about to write this, its walt disney showcase, anyway did I understand correctly that wdcs will no longer be a floppy but a paperback? Not a huge fan of those, and its only gonna have a few pages more

Yes, the new title is Walt Disney Showcase, according to David Gerstein in this month's Crosstalk column.
The original run of WDS ran 54 issues. Donald and Mickey by Gladstone ran 30 issues--issues 1-18 were Mickey and Donald (Gladstone 1) and 19-30 Donald and Mickey (Gladstone 2). (Donald and Mickey was immediately followed by Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse #1-7, which was basically the same)
Neither has quite the historical value of DD, MM, or US, so I doubt they'll carry legacy numbers--the mock-ups for IDW's DM didn't have a "31" or "38". It might be slightly more likely for WDS though.
Oh hey, OK Quack! That's an unexpected twist, fairly obscure. What's next, Little Gum? That one weird S-Coded alien who used to eat money and was friends with the nephews?

That's almost a shame. Despite the lack of historic value comparable to the "Core Four", the completist in me likes every new iteration of a Disney title to carry forward the numbering that it last left off with, even if it were short-lived. That's why I was disappointed at the #1's that Disney Comics, Inc., decided on for their first Donald Duck Adventures and DuckTales books.

Oh believe me, I completely agree. I've dropped series before--mostly meaning the "big two"--for their ever-growing love of cancelling series but not really cancelling them because they're really wanting an excuse to squeeze out a new #1 and get that temporary bump in sales. I would not have been nearly as enthused about IDW's Disney line without the legacy numbers on MM, DD, and US, and keeping WDC's number completely intact. DM and WDS don't have the sheer weight of decades of publishing by different companies behind them, unfortunately, so I ultimately can cut IDW some slack with new #1's on those (since even Gemstone, which was practically Gladstone 3, wasn't above giving us new #1s of Donald Duck Adventures and Mickey Mouse Adventures, though they were of different formats than previous books by those titles)
I half wonder if some Marvel fan (or editor) would pass out if he saw the numbers on current issues of Topolino or Le Journal de Mickey.
