Hey, I was just wondering if anyone else here had ever read any of the Aladdin comics, and if so, what did you think? |

Yes, and god, I miss them so much ;_; they were really good. My grandma had a whole bunch of them, shame I never took them home... I was the only one that read them.
She also had some other Disney Afternoon comics, but I never paid attention to them XD _________________

I've been looking for them on eBay, but I'm trying to find an auction selling all of them together, just to make my life easier. _________________ I don't need intelligent drugs, because I don't know what they are.

XD If it's not too much trouble, could you scan some of them for me if you do get them? The only one I can remember is the one where Aladdin and Abu touch the cursed Ankh...
No, wait, I can also vaguely remember the Sultan sending him on some kind of quest, where Aladdin figures out that the earth is round...
And another one where some random guy comes and gives them gifts that put spells on them. Gah, I miss them so much. .___. _________________

I've got a bunch; I just wanted to see if anyone was interested before I scanned them.
Anyone who remembers the first issue: WTF was with Aladdin's uncle?
Edit: Oh, and I have double copies of some of the early issues, in case anyone's interested... |

The only one I've read is the one that Marisa remembers, with the curse and the aging and stuff. It came with my Aladdin's Arabian Adventures tape. I would love to read them, though. I've thought of searching Ebay, but I have the curse of no money. _________________ "This cow's been covered with flour!" |

*cling* I will buy them from you. I will.
And Aladdin's uncle was very random. I mean, if Aladdin had an uncle, why didn't they live together after mommy and daddy died? ..Maybe because he was evil and tried to control the royal family (something like that, wasn't it? My memory escapes me...)
Although I do remember my favorite comic WAS the one with the cursed Ankh. It was a serious and believeable plot (believeable as far as Aladdin goes anyway) and it gave us some background info on Genie as well The only thing I thought was wrong with it was the fact that they lifted a scene from Lord of the Rings... unless J.R.R. Tolkien got that riddle from somewhere else? _________________

I remember hearing Aladdin had an uncle. It was on the Aladdin RPG in Aladdin's profile I think. Was his name Burham Yurbak? How did Aladdin find out he had an uncle? |

Well at least you have SOME memory, I'm completely lost. I haven't heard of any of this. Oh, why wasn't my parents a lot more aware of the Aladdin items around them when I was smaller and didn't know any better?
Looks like I'll be going ebay hunting tonight. Plus my birthday is around the corner, so this would be a great thing to bug the parentals about |

I've got a series of comics and scanned them but they're in Dutch. I don't know if there ever where English versions of them. Any takers check http://members.ams.chello.nl/marco.merkelijn/mp3/ Plot:
Jafar has once again got hold of Genie
Genie knows what Jafar wants: to become handsome
Jafar and Genie talk about who thinks he (jafar) is handsome not counting mommy and himself.
So finally Jafar gives in that let Genie make a handsome guy
Result: see for your self |

Genie: Well, I'm again at your service Jafar!
Picture 2
Genie: I know what a guy like you wants. You wanna be a handsome fellow don't you?
Jafar: What do you mean?
Picture 3
Jafar: Are you saying that I'm ugly.
Genie: Ah! Every mother things her child is handsome.
Picture 4
Jafar: Yes, my mother things I'm handsome and me of course and uhm...
Genie: Not mince matters, Jaffie... from man to man: how many princess did you won?
Picture 5
Jafar: Allright then. Make me a handsome guy!
Genie: Ah! That's wish number one!
Picture 6
Genie: Whalla! One handsome man that wins the heart of every girl!
Jafar: You're doing it on purpose |

Does anyone know where I can find scans of the Aladdin comics online? If not, a summary of the stories? I've only read about 3 comics and I'd like to see some other ones. They look very interesting. Thanks! |

Here are the ones I scanned so far; I want to put them up on the site eventually:
http://www.aladdincentral.org/sharing/comics
One of them's Aladdin Comics #1, the others are all from Disney Adventures, Disney Comic Hits, etc.
I think I've got most of the ones Marco had online saved, I'll take a look for those. |
