You want a prototype The Strange Death of Alex Raymond, you gotta pledge (or up your pledge) here. Eddie clarifies:

So if you joined after sep 6, for $50, we’re assuming you want in on the contest so you get 50 chances. If you were already a contributing Patron before, and you had contributed $150 in total since you joined, and you upped your pledge by $10 after Sep 6, you get 15+ 10= 25 chances.

Hey speaking of Cerebus and Star Wars and all that good stuff:

Friend to the Blog, and recipient of his own special themed week here on AMOC, Steve Peters is running a new KickStarter to fund his latest project:

The Comicverse is a sci-fi romantic comedy set in a comic book shop on a space station, written by Bianca Alu-Marr and drawn by me, Steve Peters. In 2013, we started a comic called Comicverse: Behind The Counter, a spinoff that Bianca wrote for other artists to illustrate. At the time, I'd already started Parallel Comicverses, though I didn't have a name for it yet. I did know it would feature an alien character based on me named Esteban (a comic book artist that had a small role in the Comicverse series), and that it would be written by me and by other guest writers. Of course Bianca ended up writing part of it too, just as I drew parts of Behind The Counter. The final product, Parallel Comicverses #1, will be a softcover black and white, digest-size book, with 70 pages of comics and over 30 pages of glimpses at the creative process.

Wait for it...

THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS: Parallel Comicverses #1 focuses on three things I am passionate about: Star Wars, the music of a band called Yes, and comic books, most specifically a comic called Cerebus. However, since the comic's stories are told through the eyes of a 31st century alien, these three things are familiar yet...different.

Wait for it...

For the Cerebus portion of the comic, I've created a 3-headed aardvark called Cerberus. I decided the best course would be to turn to Cerebus' creator himself, Dave Sim. Dave has been kind enough to participate in several of my jam comics in the past, but he's had problems with his hand and had to stop drawing, so I asked him to write a story for me instead. The end result, "Cerberus Conquers The Universe!", has a lot of in-jokes that I'm sure Cerebus readers will find amusing. It's been a blast drawing Cerebus characters in their mutated alien forms, and I'm not finished yet. I will be recreating scenes from Cerebus in their Cerberus form and offering them as rewards in this Kickstarter*.

That's RIGHT! Dave's WRITTEN a new (quasi-)Cerebus story, and the ONLY way to get it, is right here at Steve's Kickstarter, and it'll only set you back twelve bucks**...

*I'm getting the Melmoth reward, 

**If you got more disposable income, Steve's got some pretty nifty rewards, like Cerberus recreations of Cerebus art. Go read the Kickstarter, it's all there on the sidebars.
