Palmer's Picks: Wizard #58: Dave Sim Q&A

Hi, Everybody!

This week's Auction:
Click to see Spiderbaby! bigger!
Is at $150 (USD) from Kul Das (via the YouTubes)!

COMIC LINK AUCTIONS!!! Where you can get: a Platinum edition of Birthday card #1 signed by NEAL ADAMS, and DAVE SIM, with a NEAL ADAMS Superman stamp. OR, a Gold edition of Birthday card #1 signed by NEAL ADAMS and DAVE SIM with NO STAMP. Or, OR, a print of the Cover to GREEN DANTE/GREEN VIRGIL #1 (Pretend you're Seiler. Impress your friends. Pester your enemies.) there are three of them, but one of them shall be mine! (Ya know, as long as none of you guys got more money than me...)

Wanna give Dave and David And Davjamin... er, Benjamin, and Sean monies, but don't wanna deal with the hassle of going to a comicbook store and tracking down a copy of the latest Cerebus in Hell? One-Shot (The LGBTQetc. People is the next one coming,)? Well, we've got you covered.

If you're in the market to dress like Dave Sim, you can buy a "Matt D's A Moment of Cerebus" t-shirt right here. Or, if you're one of those nostalgia buffs who likes the earlier funnier A Moment Of Cerebus posts, the Tim W. Logo is available too.

The remastered Volume 1 is available digitally for $9.99



If you got a couple of extra bucks and want to do a fellow Cerebus fan a solid, Friend of the Blog Mike Battaglia has a go fund me here

If you're looking for Cerebus the Barbarian Messiah, or Conversations. You got more than one way to behead a Borelean, Conversations, and Cerebus the Barbarian Messiah

So, remember on the 15th when Friend to the Blog Tom Palmer said he was gonna post his Q&A with Dave from Wizard #58, including some stuff that was left on the cutting room floor?

Well he sent me a message:
Matt!

Thanks for posting about the Palmer's Picks SPX thing last week.
As promised, a revisit of my Q&A with Dave from Wizard #58 is up on my blog, along with a lot of material that didn't make it to print:

Enjoy!
- Tom
As I read the material that was cut, it was awesome, I got to the actual interview, and realized that it was familiar, REALLY familiar.

'cause I already posted it.

(And I'll even post it again):


Have look, it's SuperCerebus!



Thanks again Tom!

Next Time: Nifty things are afoot...

Anyone else think Dave's grammar is a bit off in the lettering above? Shouldn't it be "Never shtup a spider!" rather than "Never shtup IN a spider!"?

[To adapt Groucho's remark about dogs and books: "Outside of a spider, a shtup is a man's best friend. Inside spider, it's too dark to shtup".]

You're right, Paul, and I thought as much when I first heard Dave call it that on the recent Please Hold. I thought maybe it was a particular yiddish usage of it that I wasn't aware of.

(From the article: That framed picture of barbarian Cerebus on a throne covered in blood is pretty cool. I don't think I've ever seen it reprinted anywhere else.)

Hourly cigarette break? Yikes! Lucky he made it to 300!

Tony Dunlop said...

Cigarette "break?" A real smoker would be drawing with a burning butt hanging on his lips.

Jeff said...

I suspect that "Never Shtup in a Spider" is meant to be a riff on the cover of The Amazing Spiderman #29, which had the blurb, "NEVER STEP ON A SCORPION". I mean, you don't shtup *on* somebody (well, you can, but that's basically masturbation), you shtup *in* somebody. But I'm just guessing; nobody tells me nothin'.

Tony, like Wally Wood? :)

Yep.
