Interview: The Comic Report #2 (The FIRST ever Dave Sim Interview!)

Hi, Everybody!

From now on the Rigmarole will be at the bottom of the post,

Anyway, yesterday, Oliver shared a Faceybookee post of an interview with Dave from Comic Report #2. Well when Margaret saw the Faceybookee post she sent me the rest of the interview.

Thanks Mags!

The backcover by Sim

And, Margaret found an eBay auction for issues 2-7 of Comic Report which has a treasure trove of early Dave Sim art.

Thanks again Mags!

You Don't Know Jack, there's an Indiegogo. So go go Indy.

Don't forget "Cerebus in Hell? 4 Sell". With all the profits going to Aardvark-Vanaheim. Speaking of Cerebus in Hell? There's a new one: Spider-Whore! And this Wednesday, The Amicable Spider-Vark should be in stores, which is the lead in to Spider-Whore, which was SUPPOSED to be the immediate sequel, but Batvark: PENIS ended up taking Spider-Whore's slot when COVID-19 threw everything up into the air.

Speaking of Spider-Vark, A Moment of Cerebus is facilitating Aardvark/Vanaheim's auctioning of a signed copy of the mis-stapled The Amicable Spider-Vark #1. As soon as I get pictures, I'll show you what it looks like, but it's signed by Dave with a silver sharpie that was dying. It's a "Atwall 1 of 5". Bidding is at $100 American dollars (plus shipping) to Rich Laux.




And Signed copies of Vark Wars: Walt's Empire Strikes Back (Signed by Dave, Signed by Dave and me, Signed by me after I scribble out Dave's name, Pretty much available Signed only...)

Maybe some people in the world could Be Like Dave: "I feel like he is a good friend without having met him... to the degree that I can forgive the bursts of sheer egotism he sometimes goes through, as I would with anyone else I really liked."

I just lapped the field in the High Society contest: Page 26, panel 4.

Top that, folks!

Dan, my silence in response to your comment speaks volumes, loudly.
