  Gladstone Publishing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gladstone Publishing was an American company that published Disney comics from 1986 to 1990 and from 1993 to 1998.
In 1990 Gladstone was licensed to publish a series of albums reprinting nearly all the Disney duck stories of Carl Barks.
After its license expired in 1998, Gladstone shut down, and there were no more Disney comics in America (except for occasional graphic novels of the movies put out by Dark Horse Comics), until 2003, when Gemstone Publishing gained the publishing rights.

He conceived of a thirty volume set of hardbound books that would publish all of Barks's Disney work in chronological order in as un-tampered-with a condition as possible, from the original fl and white Photostats on file at Western Publishing.
Their sales were not a matter of public record, but it became clear that the publishing house was faltering.
[5] The reasons for declining circulation of Gladstone comics cannot be attributed primarily to Bruce's managerial style but rather to forces in the comics market and shifts in popular taste that rendered Bruce's vision of comics difficult to sustain in a company as small as Gladstone.

 LINES ON PAPER :: About Us
Stanley has achieved widespread acclaim for his work on such disparate comic books as Melvin Monster, Thirteen Going on Eighteen, Tales from the Tomb, and the comic book version of Nancy & Sluggo - but it is his work on Little Lulu for which he is best known.
In the late 1980s, all of Stanley's work on Little Lulu was collected into a set of deluxe hardbound books by Gladstone Publishing Co. This set, like the original comic book series, has become a collectible highly prized by knowledgeable comic book enthusiasts.
His art originally mimicked that of Buell, but as the comic became more successful and Dell increased the publishing schedule of the comic, the art chores were handed to Irv Tripp, who developed the more "cartoony" style for Little Lulu that continues to this day.

 Life of Don Rosa
Although "The Son of the Sun" was wordy - current Gladstone editor John Clark says it was trimmed by a third before it ran - it was a big hit, and was nominated for a Harvey Award (the comics' Oscars) as the year's best story.
Part of his arrangement with Gladstone included the return of his original artwork, and in the end of 1988 the Disney Company had informed Gladstone Publisher Bruce Hamilton that he was "to no longer return any original art done for their comicbooks".
In 1987, when Rosa was assured by Gladstone that the company would be interested in publishing any Duck stories he could do for them, Rosa sold his family tile-and-terazzo business to devote his full time to comics.

Publishing consists of making the document publicly available, and advertising its address so other people can find it easily.
When publishing materials of general interest to the UO community, it is usually desirable to announce their availability with an email message to webmaster@www.uoregon.edu.
Although in principal it is possible to limit access to web pages in various ways, in practice publishing tends to be "all or nothing." You can expect that as soon as you place your authoring efforts on a public web server someone somewhere on the Internet will read them.
