Don Rosa's close friend Dan Shane says on DCML that yesterday Don Rosa had a follow-up visit to the eye-doctor to check the progress of his recent surgery. It was discovered that his "good" eye was developing some rips (tears) that foretold the same retinal detachment he experienced in his left eye, so he again had an immediate operation - this time laser surgery to mend the rips (tears). His doctor fear that the retina in his right eye might also detach before his left eye has healed, rendering him blind in both eyes for months.

Due to increased eye problems, Don Rosa went through an emergency eye operation (a vitrectomy and a pneumatic retinopexy) in his left eye, just before the Easter holidays. It will be weeks before it's possible to conclude whether the operation has been successful and the recovery time may be up to 6 months.

Gemstone intends to publish a complete Don Rosa Library (DRL) hardcover book series - seemingly in a style close to Egmont's "Walt Disney's Hall of Fame" book series. At Amazon December 24th 2008 is announced as the date for the publication of volume I of this new series. The announced price is $39.99. In DCF (The Disney Comics Forum) Gemstones David Gerstein says this about Gemstone's upcoming projects: "I can't give many details about these projects yet, other than to confirm that for right now they're in the works. Plans have been known to change, though. Lars is correct: Amazon's listings often reflect projects (from all publishers) that may not ultimately come out as originally expected. But at least you can see what we presently *want* to do.

The cover pictures at this point, by the way, are just quick "Americanizations" of similar volumes already published by Egmont. Our final editions may look very different (and may not be identical to Egmont's equivalents inside, either)
