Back around 1996, EGMONT/FLEETWAY editor PETE KEMPSHALL 'phoned me to see if I was up for lettering a four-page strip for a try-out magazine for the foreign market. "Sure!" I said, and he promptly sent me a FLINTSTONES strip, along with a script in Danish, I think - can't quite remember. (Or maybe it was Swedish, Finnish, or even Norwegian - best to cover all the options.) I had lettered comics translated from Spanish or Italian into English before, so this was just the same thing in reverse.
Above is the cover of the 'finished' product. As it isn't priced I assume it's a dummy, and I received it as a folded sheet which I then trimmed and stapled into comic form. I don't think it ever progressed to a regular weekly or monthly periodical which was on sale anywhere, so this is quite a rare item. So, here it is, you lucky peeps, just for your perusal.
(Incidentally, I wasn't responsible for the rather lacklustre and badly-positioned 'GAME TIME' logo, so don't blame me.)
