I found this in a pile of magazines: On the first page: TRIVIA: According to the credits in this magazine, Marv Wolfman was "Comics Editor" and Heidi MacDonald was "Associate Comics Editor" at the time.

Funny stuff, Spider. That pic just looks so wrong, though. Especially when you consider the date. Of course, I think I can guess why Jackson likes Pinocchio. They both wish they could become a real boy. ;D

what disturbs me even more is the tagline to the magazine
The magazine for kids
indeed.

I actually still have the first couple of years of Disney Adventures That issue was the second I got from my subscription. I have ones from all the way to... I dunno, 1997, or something, since the magazine was reprinting the early BONE comics in color. (I think it might actually have different colorization than the current colored editions)

I think the real reason he likes Pinocchio is cause he wants to bend over and have Pinocchio tell him a BIG lie.

I just realized that I must have thrown all of my Disney Adventures away at some point. Oh, well.

I don't remember, Shan, but I doubt it. That little magazine started coming out when I was still in the 3rd grade I believe. I think I stopped getting it before 1993.
Edit:
Just checked. The first issue came out in 1990, so yeah, I did stop getting it before then.

Ohhh, I still have them. =) They were in a place I didn't look before.
The first Disney's Adventure's issue that came out November 12 1990 had Rick Moranis and Baloo Bear on it. Heh.
It's actually not in all that bad a shape, except for the bottom of the edge.

Wow, looks like the issue is in great shape. I bet they sure bring back some memories. Are you glad you hadn't thrown them away? Hey, was it the thing to put a person on the cover with one of the cartoon characters? Shan

Hey, was it the thing to put a person on the cover with one of the cartoon characters? Shan Yeah, they did that sort of thing for quite a while, up until maybe.... 1998 or something. The following I remember: -Shaquille O'Neal with Goofy stading by his side -Dean Cain as Superman, with tied-up Beagle Boys in the back -Iago trying to dare a T-Rex from JURASSIC PARK to box with him -Cruella Deville with Christina Ricci as Wednesday and whatsisname as Pugsley -Darth Vader dueling with Jafar -Darkwing Duck with Jim Carey as the Mask -Patrick Stewart as Picard, with Jessica Rabbit as Troi, the Beast as Worf, Magica DeSpell as Guinan, Pinocchio as Data, and Darkwing Duck as Geordi And some others than I don't remember at the moment. There were covers where they don't show any other Disney characters with them (ie. an X-Men cover, two Power Rangers covers, and some others).

You must have picked up on Disney Adventures at a much later date than me, spider. I have none of these covers.

The Michael Jackson one shown above is actually the second one from my subscription--The first was one that only had the movie TMNT, which would be cover-dated May 1993. The Patrick Stewart cover I mentioned actually came before the movie TMNT cover, and was cover-dated April 1993. Everything else came long after.

I remember being excited about the first issue of Disney's Adventures when it first came out. I was big into Disney back then.
I still have all of my Disney comics - Uncle Scroogle, Walt Disney's Comics, Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse, Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers, Ducktales, Roger Rabbit, boy these were the days.
Now they're just sitting around in my boxes, but I'm saving them for my kids someday, if I ever have any.
