And what percentage would you say you've scanned so far?<br /><br />I realize it would take twenty-six years and four months to complete the project(roughly) but I'm just curious how much material you have overall, and how far along you are in giving anybody who follows you a guide to follow.<br /><br />As an example, Dave had been leading up to the "Your turn" part of "Minds" for fifteen years. Do you have all the notebooks between his acid breakdown and the finalization of the end of "Mothers and Daughters" and, if they were scanned in properly, could someone follow Dave's development of the original idea up through the finished pages?<br /><br />Or Shep-Shep, which Dave said in the "Last Day" endnotes that he'd long ago worked out every beat and detail, do you have the notebooks that would help someone follow that line of thought?<br /><br />In theory, a Cerebus fan should be able to Google Shep-Shep and find a "Dave Sim Cerebus Notebook Chronology" site that leads us to a notebook draft from "Church and State" which includes a corner note "possible use in #300?" and leads us to further links, a la Wikipedia.<br /><br />Basically, has Dave given you all the notebooks covering #1-#300? If not, he's doing a disservice to you as Cerebusfangirl/historian. If so, how far would you say you've progressed?<br /><br />Personally, if he'd given the notebooks to me, I'd just sit in front of a photocopier for a week, slamming pages down, then find the nearest digital scanner and worry about the rest later. But maybe Dave has different ideas for his legacy. ;)ChrisWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18322950015727553689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837001751311078781.post-8632202107884307512014-07-30T21:57:55.502-05:002014-07-30T21:57:55.502-05:00So in the collected covers book will finally see t...So in the collected covers book will finally see the red hair?
