<p>w00t!</p><p>3) Back to the topic from last week wherein...</p><p><i><b>Dave Kopperman said...</b></i></p><p><i>Dave can be sphinx-like in his responses sometimes </i><b>[unless they're on Please Hold <yawn> --Jen]</b><i>, and ... if he's analyzed a thing to his satisfaction and drawn a conclusion, no force on Earth can move him off of that. Interestingly, his (to me) flawed analysis of that aspect of the crash actually doesn't detract from his overarching theory that Raymond harbored professional jealousy towards Drake and was likely - perhaps subconsciously - suicidal (and perhaps steered by a kind of 4D synchronicity into the crash as an inevitability).</i></p><p><i>I'd weighed saving the question for an Ask Dave session but suspect it would be politely and obliquely dismissed - and it's really kind of a red herring anyhow, as the book gets so far away from the accident that it's not even really engaged with it as anything more than window dressing.</i></p><p>What a timely moment to share the Corvette Forum and the <a href="https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/c1-and-c2-corvettes/2394760-mystery-of-stan-drake-s-56-corvette.html" target="_blank">Mystery of Stan Drake's '56 Corvette ???</a> Who is that <b>Johnny Cigarette</b> guy and how does he know Dave?!? </p><p>Oh wait, could it also be Anonymous below?</p><p><i><b>Anonymous said...</b></i></p><p><i>“…Stan was absolutely convinced Alex was trying to take him with him, to make it look like an accident so his widow would get the insurance, an incredibly tortured man. Even more, Westport was definitely a hotbed of strange-ass stuff Artist-wise then; like Woodstock with Lockjaw. And when I would drive the length of road where the accident occurred, it's pretty revealing. The road is tailor made for insane acceleration.” (Bill Sienkiewicz 2015)</i></p><p><i>- Eddie</i></p><p>Eddie, you ruin the entire aura of being so mysteriously Anonymous if you sign your name at the end. <sigh></p><p><b><i>Dave Kopperman said...</i></b></p><p><i>"I think (Stan) felt the guilt of losing Alex Raymond being part of it [...] It started to rain and they were going on this curve and he knew that Alex was going a little bit too fast, but he didn't say anything" - Tom Palmer</i></p><p><i>Not that these quotes are mutually exclusive, but it sounds like Drake was all over the place AND these are second-hand reporting on conversations that had likely happened years before - I suspect the reportage says more about Palmer and Sienkiewicz than it does about Raymond (or Drake, for that matter)</i></p><p>Let's just hope no one else from the brain trust chimes in...</p><p><i><b>Mouse Skull Entertainment said...</b></i></p><p><i>I suspect Drake suffered head trauma/PTSD from the crash, and subsequently didn't really remember what happened and spent the rest of his life trying to fill in the blanks.</i></p><p><i>So, I don't trust his narrative.</i></p><p><i>Manly Matt Dow</i></p><p>D'oh!</p><p><i><b>Anonymous said...</b></i></p><p><i>Leonard Starr interview: </i>Alter Ego<i> 113:</i></p><p><i>JA: Before we change subjects, I’d like to know what Stan Drake told you about the automobile accident that took Alex Raymond’s life and nearly his own.</i></p><p><i>STARR: We were both car enthusiasts, and Alex had been taking speed-driving lessons. I guess he got good at it, but not good enough, because he kept wrecking cars on the Merritt Parkway at night. Alex drove expensive cars like Mercedes, which he drew in Rip Kirby. When Alex’s body was brought to the hospital, his regular doctor was there and said, “That stupid bastard finally did it.”</i></p><p><i>Stan had just bought a new Corvette. Alex dropped by and wanted to try it out. At one point, they were driving uphill very fast as they were coming to a crossroad. Being unfamiliar with the car, Alex hit the accelerator instead of the brake, and they went up into air, off the road, and hit a tree in mid-air. Stan was thrown clear; his ear was almost torn off and his shoulder was dislocated. They managed to sew the ear back on and put his arm in a sling. He would never wear a seat beat after that. If he had been wearing one, it would’ve been all over for him. The driving shaft of the steering wheel went right through Alex.</i></p><p><i>Alex was having an affair with a certain Mrs. White. None of us met her, but he was madly in love with her, and she with him. His wife wouldn’t give him a divorce because she was devoutly Catholic, as Alex was. They had five kids, who were mostly grown by the time of the accident. Some time after the accident, a couple of insurance investigators showed up, thinking Alex deliberately crashed the car because he had a million-dollar insurance policy that would have been voided if this was suicide. Stan got furious and said, “Do you think he would have done that with me in the car? My best friend?” Stan threw them out of his house. That was the end of that.</i></p><p><i>Years later, Stan and I were sharing a studio, and were talking about it, and he started thinking about it, and says, “You know....” Well, they said Alex was an experienced driver and wouldn’t have made a mistake like that. Thinking about it, well, they have a point. Would you make that mistake?</i></p><p><i>JA: No.</i></p><p><i> STARR: It doesn’t take more than five minutes to get familiar with a new car, and then it’s like you’ve been driving it forever.</i></p><p><i>-Eddie</i></p><p>This is becoming one helluva post!</p><p><i><b>Dave Kopperman said...</b></i></p><p><i>Eddie - it's a little difficult to know what you're trying to convey with these interview clips, but this Leonard Starr interview may be the most opaque as yet. It actually lends credence to Matt's point that Drake's PTSD led to him changing key points of his narrative over the years. It also references so many things that it's highly unlikely that Starr was privy to in a first or even second-hand fashion (such as the quote from the doctor). It's ultimately nothing but somewhat informed gossip and supposition.</i></p><p><i>None of which actually gets back to my original question, which has been somewhat obscured in all of this: where Dave is making the claim that "there's no way to confuse brake and accelerator". I thought it might have something to do with manual vs. automatic, Tony said it's definitely a mistake even experienced drivers make even on manual, and Jen says (and Starr supports) that Raymond wasn't nearly as good a driver as he thought he was. All three are reasonable assumptive possibilities, but impossible to know for certain - which is why creating a narrative around it is a brilliant artistic choice.</i></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">How about we give the last word to Rick Veitch and his recent faxes to and from Dave (courtesy of Manly)...</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5IhKCWf7mCmiDNur59PNkXqrqiPosyW5vn0kb1t-w2Viwq6gFq-Rx-djqldyWwjbwl1rR-vAPqY-lEfk2KMG5iQkClmtwjIphNKAhQwocFRNXICTEL8B4Y-tAY0RSYpCHWqrQpFTA2bdys1LrqiiCNIMWXiaG9_qu5Ej85TpXYV9dg4RbtG_AF0HOcoUL/s640/2%203%202024%20Rick%201.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="472" data-original-width="640" height="472" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5IhKCWf7mCmiDNur59PNkXqrqiPosyW5vn0kb1t-w2Viwq6gFq-Rx-djqldyWwjbwl1rR-vAPqY-lEfk2KMG5iQkClmtwjIphNKAhQwocFRNXICTEL8B4Y-tAY0RSYpCHWqrQpFTA2bdys1LrqiiCNIMWXiaG9_qu5Ej85TpXYV9dg4RbtG_AF0HOcoUL/w640-h472/2%203%202024%20Rick%201.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_2nGRca65DNrAnAooqI1eiprztm8wdsg2oB8JOX87Qc7_f6bTu8cpCSCwFnc83N3gacXKshi7ZiYXZjYkD-NIupSK4bBIO76f9viM4210Rj5Ae6x-_LZH61O8CQ6uwA1Ys_mdJrOCFspCm-qQNSXq6FYYEEuYVf2Ski_14-VjFwX3Piif4PMqBi5Utf_f/s640/2%203%202024%20Rick%202.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="446" data-original-width="640" height="446" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_2nGRca65DNrAnAooqI1eiprztm8wdsg2oB8JOX87Qc7_f6bTu8cpCSCwFnc83N3gacXKshi7ZiYXZjYkD-NIupSK4bBIO76f9viM4210Rj5Ae6x-_LZH61O8CQ6uwA1Ys_mdJrOCFspCm-qQNSXq6FYYEEuYVf2Ski_14-VjFwX3Piif4PMqBi5Utf_f/w640-h446/2%203%202024%20Rick%202.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGk6cPdYoHzhsqkxM8iolB7hwQdnhME4NGhJV8Wwj_3NeWe9KI3vTDwHgQudlxJFXpmxPYDk7gaVIDZQCEuqaK_A1LbZ-nSG5So7l9RX85HNGHNjoYxJtOot32dvodKPE__ub28lYm3JQ-SEKSMOADVsf67lQrLJ0B0qpoEAdCyyIdzv8vNWSHdZ9tjJ2_/s640/2%2013%202024%20Rick%201.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="414" data-original-width="640" height="414" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGk6cPdYoHzhsqkxM8iolB7hwQdnhME4NGhJV8Wwj_3NeWe9KI3vTDwHgQudlxJFXpmxPYDk7gaVIDZQCEuqaK_A1LbZ-nSG5So7l9RX85HNGHNjoYxJtOot32dvodKPE__ub28lYm3JQ-SEKSMOADVsf67lQrLJ0B0qpoEAdCyyIdzv8vNWSHdZ9tjJ2_/w640-h414/2%2013%202024%20Rick%201.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">How about that for a S-D-O-A-R post!

Seems to be a win-win?<br /><br />OR, if you have extra AKIMBO blanks, do two new homages, send one to each of them with full sized prints of the other four homages, signed/personalized/and with a secret message just for the recipient and keep the original three (because as the song goes, "breaking up is hard to do..."). Along with the comics with the covers like originally planned?<br /><br />OR or, auction all three through Heritage and send a third of the take for the intended give-away cover to Al and a third to Jason and you keep all the rest?<br /><br />OR Or or... I dunno. This is a sticky wicket, and I'm kinda glad it's not really MY sticky wicket, per se...<br /><br />In the immortal words of Billy Crystal in The Princess Bride, "have fun storming the castle!"<br /><br />Manly Matt Dow<br />(Or, cut the covers in half diagonally, and tape half of one cover to half of the other cover and send a Frankenstein to each of them signed "it worked for King Solomon...Dave Sim"...)</blockquote><div style="text-align: left;">More as this continues...</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Breaking News!</div><div style="text-align: left;">James Banderas-Smith sent out:</div><blockquote>Hey everyone!

He had filled 36 notebooks during the years he created the monthly <b>Cerebus</b> series, covering issues #20 to 300, plus the other side items -- like the Epic stories, posters and prints, convention speeches etc. A total of 3,281 notebook pages detailing his creative process. I never really got the time to study the notebooks when I had them. Just did a quick look, scanned them in and sent them back to Dave as soon as possible. So this regular column is a chance for me to look through those scans and highlight some of the more interesting pages.</i></div><p>So far in this past month of two during our look at Dave Sim’s first notebook used in the production of Cerebus we’ve seen up to page 39, so today we’ll start with page 40. If you want to get caught up, just use the <a href="https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/search/label/Notebook%20One">Notebook One tag</a> to find all past blog entries with pages from Notebook One.</p><p>Last week we saw pages from the notebook which covered Cerebus #21 with Elrod and Cockroach selling bonds while Cerebus wakes up and discovers them.

Maybe if it were an automatic transmission, then possibly. But any manual driver would likely keep the left foot for the clutch and the right foot would float between the accelerator and brake - doubly so in a start-and-stop environment like a suburban road. Was it ever established anywhere that Drake's Corvette was a Powerglide automatic? The stock model was manual and the automatic was optional. The nearest I've seen to any info was that article that says 'the transmission was found in second gear', which could go either way but I'd be inclined to think that you couldn't accelerate rapidly in that gear on an automatic - whereas on second gear on a manual you not only COULD accelerate like a bat out of hell, but you frequently downshift on purpose to accelerate quickly. If this was a three-speed manual then the downshift to accelerate would be to second gear - and the driver could very very easily get their right foot confused between the brake and accelerator if everything else were at play as described - rain, distracted mindset, unfamiliar car, unfamiliar terrain, quick decision making, passenger conversation, etc.</i></p><p><i>Anyone know the Chevy Powerglide specs well enough to provide insight?</i></p><p><b><i>Tony Dunlop added...</i></b></p><p><i>Dave K.'s point about the brake/accelerator thing is one I've made before. I've been the driver in exactly two car crashes in my life, and the first one happened precisely because I hit the accelerator instead of the brake in a panic situation. (Yes, I was driving a stick at the time.)</i></p><p><i>But Dave S. famously doesn't drive, so he can be forgiven for this error - even though it undermines a fair amount of his point.</i></p><p><b>Jen responds...</b></p><p>I actually did share my thoughts on this very topic back in December 2020 in a fairly lengthy fax, which I will share in part -- and Dave's response following that...</p><p><b><i>Jen faxed...</i></b></p><p><i>I’m not sure if this is serendipity, synchronicity or merely idle ramblings, but your supposition concerning Alex Raymond attitudes whilst driving Stan Drake’s Corvette struck a chord with me. Neither in support nor opposition per se, it just made me think about what my approach might be to a new vehicle considering my experience pushing the envelope with a litany of V-8 (or equivalently horse powered) automobiles.</i></p><p><i>First my bona fides. I’ve been driving for 35 years now, mostly east coast driving (Philly, D.C. and NYC). My first car was a 1972 Galaxie station wagon (with wood paneling!), my second a 1970 Buick Skylark (that I spray painted primer black), then a 1978 Chevy Nova (that required a quart of oil every week), and finally a 1968 Highland Green Ford Mustang 289, a complete money pit, but my kids and I adored that car (until it threw a rod and bees set up a nest in the door panel). I’ve replaced alternators, regulators (pre-catalytic converters), even swapped out a U-joint with a blowtorch under my Skylark on a cold parking lot asphalt in West Philadelphia one bitter November morning. </i></p><p><i>... I finally decided I needed a car again and bought a 2016 Ford Mustang (in the same Highland Green as my ‘68!). This car has been a delight to drive, handling at 105 on the New Jersey Turnpike as nicely as it does at 75 (unlike my older cars that shook, rattled and rolled above 90 mph).</i></p><p><i>This in turn led me to treat myself to a two-day intensive stunt driving course in October (with front-wheel drive Impalas and rear-wheel drive Crown Vics). I cannot put into words how much fun it was to gun these cars down the track (wherein I acquired my nickname NASCAR) before pulling 180s, reverse 180s, box 90s, drifting, high speed slaloms, etc. I shared a YouTube video with Eddie of one of my reverse 180s on an empty racetrack in rural New Jersey, and he seemed suitably impressed and a trifle horrified!</i></p><p><i></i></p><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@typingmonkette/video/6942610240798182662" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="6942610240798182662" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;"><i> <section> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@typingmonkette?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="@typingmonkette">@typingmonkette</a> This is me trying to master the reverse 180 stunt in a Chevy Lumina in stunt driving school! <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/stuntdriver?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="stuntdriver">#stuntdriver</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/driving?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="driving">#driving</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/girldriver?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="girldriver">#girldriver</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/girlpower?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="girlpower">#girlpower</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/original-sound-6942610002720967429?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="♬ original sound - Jen DiGiacomo">♬ original sound - Jen DiGiacomo</a> </section> </i></blockquote><i> <script async="" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script></i><p></p><p><i>As I applied lessons I learned to my ... drives (different steering wheel grips, less braking, less oversteering) I oddly started researching Cannonball Runs (one car, multiple drivers, minimal stops from the Redball Garage on 31st Street in Manhattan to Portofino Hotel and Marina in Redondo Beach, CA). It turns out that a byproduct of COVID is significantly less traffic on the roads and therefore a series of record breaking cross-country runs that shattered the 35:54 mark set in 1971, with the latest record being a staggering 25:39 this year. Inspired, I am planning a more leisurely run of my own in the spring.</i></p><p><i>All of this brings me to Brock Yates, Car and Driver editor, creator and winner of the inaugural Cannonball Sea-to-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash, and author of Cannonball! World’s Greatest Outlaw Race. Yates wrote about his cross-country trek with American racing champion Dan Gurney in a Ferrari Daytona V-12, considered in 1971 to be the fastest car on the road. At one point they decided to see just how fast the car could go and topped out at 174 MPH! Mr. Yates mentioned how perfect the steering was at that speed, literally they could drive with one finger on the steering wheel. Yates further made the point that because of the Autobahn, cars across the pond were built to be driven and handled safely at very high speeds. In the U.S., our cars were made for quick acceleration and top speeds between say 85 MPH and 120 MPH, resulting in engines that were frequently too big and too powerful for the cars themselves (Alex Raymond experienced that with his British Allard), hamstringing any attempts at precision handling, especially in less than expert hands. And I’m talking 10 to 15 years </i>after<i> Alex Raymond’s Strange Death.</i></p><p><i>In fact, cars like the Mercedes Gullwing 300SL with ingenious engine offsets and canting could take turns at high speeds and power out of them without losing control. In a fancy American automobile, with a too big engine for the job, taking turns at high speeds meant skidding, drifting and furious counter steering just to stay on the road. I suspect that the Corvette, infamous for its fatalities and careening out of control, was worse than most. Let me put it this way: In my 2016 Mustang, if I pull out of a parking lot too quickly, I can feel the back end fishtail out and only decades of driving shitty cars with even worse tires allows me to countersteer without much thought (as the head of the stunt school complimented me on).</i></p><p><i>My guess is that Alex Raymond had been driving precision European automobiles for so long (Mercedes Gullwing 300SL, Jaguar XK120/XK140) that he underestimated just how primitive the Corvette was in comparison under real road conditions. And wet road conditions at that! I can’t tell you how many videos there are of Mustang GT 500s careening out of control and into trees, other cars, and walls when some idiot decides to show off a bit by hitting the gas, even on a simple straight away!</i></p><p><i>To be clear, this is not intended to absolve Raymond. Far from it. He was clearly arrogant about his driving abilities, unconscionable in being so aggressively reckless in driving someone else’s cherished car, and homicidal in doing so on wet roads he was not familiar with! And that doesn’t even touch upon the potential hazards from variable air pressure of the tires on Drake’s car. Let me put it this way, when I took my stunt course, they sprayed down the road for maximum skidding and manipulated tire pressure depending on what stunt we were trying to pull.</i></p><p><i>Let me see if I can stick the landing here. In Glamourpuss #26, p.11, you posit as part of Snapshot #4 that 500 yards was hardly enough room on Clapboard Hill Road to accelerate as if he was on the Thompson Speedway. I’m not sure that’s entirely true. If the oval track at Thompson’s speedway was ⅝ of a mile (considered monstrous when it opened in 1940), the straight aways were, what, 1000 feet? Modern drag racing tracks are 1000 feet as it is, so we’re talking half the distance of what he was used to (with the expectation, presumably, that he would continue accelerating). And with the 1956 Corvette boasting 0-60 speeds of 7.3 seconds (according to Road & Track testing at the time), I think he could have picked up some pretty impressive speed as he approached the 500 foot mark (someone related to me by birth calculated the speed at 500 feet to be 67.7 MPH). I was hitting 40 MPH in relatively short track space myself driving a P.O.S. Impala, and on wet roads we could pull off any stunt imaginable.</i></p><p><i>As I fell down this rabbit hole (and clearly there’s a lot more down there), I found a YouTube video from November 14, 2020 wherein some Comic Book Historian YouTuber interviews Tom Palmer about Stan Drake, the stories he used to tell and the death of Alex Raymond. I provide the auto generated transcript below of the two-minute clip, but there appears to be a three-hour tour… er… version of the entire soup-to-nuts interview that I have not attempted:</i></p><p><b>Alex Grand:</b> Now you mentioned Stan Drake -- wasn't he the one in the car with Alex Raymond in that accident in the crash. </p><p><b>Tom Palmer:</b> That's right. He told me that whole story over lunch that day. It raised the hair on the back of my neck. Yeah, it must have been torture… he relived that day over and over and over for years probably to his last days and he told it in such a colorful, not colorful, but tragic way you know I think he felt the guilt of losing Alex Raymond being part of it so to speak, but Alex Raymond was the one driving.</p><p><b>Alex Grand:</b> Did he [Stan Drake] indicate that he thought Alex Raymond may have done that on purpose?</p><p><b>Tom Palmer: </b>No, I heard stories all the way through and maybe that's why he told me straight out -- he didn't give me variations. It started to rain and they were going on this curve and he knew that Alex was going a little bit too fast, but he didn't say anything and when they made the turn they went off the road, but there happened to be a tree there and when they hit the tree, I believe he lost one of ears at least maybe both ripped off Stan Drake's head. But Alex Raymond was impaled on the aluminum around... one of the first Corvettes there's a big thick aluminum chrome around the window. He was impaled so when they found he was dead in his mouth, neck or whatever.</p><p><i>This version of events seems to indicate the crash was shortly after the turn, which certainly seems plausible, either as a turn taken too fast, or just the 500 foot straightaway from Snapshot #4. I’m going to leave the aluminum chrome where it is for you to ponder.</i></p><p><i>But I am curious, are you familiar with this account? Do you know Tom Palmer? Could you get him on the phone to answer any questions you might have? Could I ask any more questions?</i></p><p><i>... I would [further] surmise that Alex Raymond was nowhere near as good a driver as he thought he was. The first thing they taught us at stunt driving school was: Know your vehicle. Know its limitations. Once you get behind the wheel, everything that happens is your responsibility. Because if you don’t take it seriously, someone is going to die and it will be your fault.</i></p><p><i>All that said with such impunity ... , you might want to take what I have written with a few chunks of salt, as I am clearly a mere hobbyist driver (an amateur at best), so caveat emptor, right? </i></p><p><i>You’ve been researching this for a lot longer and in much more detail than I have. I just find I have a forensic interest in what actually happened -- and figured I’d share my ramblings.</i></p><div><b>Dave faxed...</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBqGX1k4UwBJuqflhBSikU58q9Ft0g-fuq_Ok5AFVhq_4mXHjZF0t2WpS6MGTTXq-0prCNFH_5WfDJATi23I2MKPbsYHdqwzxXohT1G3mcVeMsjR8o2omn3o8ak0SDcDoWw9JYevVEP38nzmbLVYBuk8ypE6KOE6PzuDjsP_303CvAuKTTc-tS0afWJgFv/s1200/Screenshot%202024-03-05%20at%2011.59.04%E2%80%AFAM.png" style="margin-left: 1em;

He had filled 36 notebooks during the years he created the monthly <b>Cerebus</b> series, covering issues #20 to 300, plus the other side items -- like the Epic stories, posters and prints, convention speeches etc. A total of 3,281 notebook pages detailing his creative process. I never really got the time to study the notebooks when I had them. Just did a quick look, scanned them in and sent them back to Dave as soon as possible. So this regular column is a chance for me to look through those scans and highlight some of the more interesting pages.</i></div><p>Guess what we’ll be looking at this week from Dave Sim’s notebooks? If you guessed pages from Albatross One, you are correct! And if you guessed page 36 will be what we start with, you are even more correct. We’ve been looking at Dave Sim’s first notebook that he used in the production of Cerebus. It covers Cerebus #20 through 28 and had 194 pages scanned. So far we’ve looked at the first 35 pages of the notebook, and a few more, just use the <a href="https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/search/label/Notebook%20One">Notebook One tag</a> to find all past blog entries with pages from Notebook One.</p><p>Last week we saw pages 31, 32, and 33, that all had Cerebus #21 material. And since pages 34 and 35 were covered in <a href="https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/2022/01/captain-cockroach-sketches.html">Captain Cockroach Sketches</a>, we start with page 36. Though I suggest you go to see page 35 so you can get a better idea of what the heck is going on with page 36. Or perhaps just look at it and take a guess:</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWmFoHGD0wdoF-6d6X-qk6QYwHKhSzAlA3VORN_NOmdg5sydaS_gAPcyXXgiBHRKHUTAM3DWGl_Vi6OhWRfac_I4xGNjN02WXE9BmNBAIO8TBd8OMypSTFz1BoXdSvq7-Ek3EbBJ1Saoenl7dZf_68hHwPNzqJqrbTnmlNRE2QITb6KDzMsyl7uNgsVYWf/s1663/notebook01p036.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1663" data-original-width="1250" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWmFoHGD0wdoF-6d6X-qk6QYwHKhSzAlA3VORN_NOmdg5sydaS_gAPcyXXgiBHRKHUTAM3DWGl_Vi6OhWRfac_I4xGNjN02WXE9BmNBAIO8TBd8OMypSTFz1BoXdSvq7-Ek3EbBJ1Saoenl7dZf_68hHwPNzqJqrbTnmlNRE2QITb6KDzMsyl7uNgsVYWf/w482-h640/notebook01p036.jpg" width="482" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><i>Notebook One, page 36</i></span></td></tr></tbody></table><p>Yes, that is just the ink from page 35 coming through the other side of the page.

That entry also has pages 47 and 49 of the notebook. All of them pages with large drawings of the two characters.

Elrod’s distinctive voice is seen at the top right of the page with the dialogue “Mistah . . Ah say Mister President. Talking to you is like” Unfortuately Elrod’s sentence isn’t finished.</p><p>Near the middle of the page, Dave wrote down the characters: President, Cockroa(ch), Cer(ebus), and Elrod and gives a quick character profile. Like the Cockroach “good boy. Here boy. Try to be calm. What a schlub”. For Elrod the name Mel Cooley is written down. Mel Cooley is a fictional character on the television show The Dick Van Dyke Show played by Richard Deacon. </p><p>Down the bottom of the page is some potential dialogue for President Weisshaupt – notice he hasn’t been named in the notebook yet? – and Elrod. At the top of the next page of the notebook some more plot points and character motivation is written down. Then Dave start writing down what will be on each page.</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4nO-88LXqFWyaQtBkUY6VaEHxoz42Ild1Afj1KffEMLie49BQXsegvUa8wquhlIHAd9Kk_ZvrTcZg2LDt61ZU2N7lkvgs8joL3-cZ9Mx2c9t1jAbAQZ34_i1sBpE0wV9cjXnjYYbuB5dMEUUz0s5z7Tb91RTJMpq8pQl6B0X5Zyck8VvqyKexTAdoPFoX/s1543/notebook01p039.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1543" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4nO-88LXqFWyaQtBkUY6VaEHxoz42Ild1Afj1KffEMLie49BQXsegvUa8wquhlIHAd9Kk_ZvrTcZg2LDt61ZU2N7lkvgs8joL3-cZ9Mx2c9t1jAbAQZ34_i1sBpE0wV9cjXnjYYbuB5dMEUUz0s5z7Tb91RTJMpq8pQl6B0X5Zyck8VvqyKexTAdoPFoX/w498-h640/notebook01p039.jpg" width="498" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><i>Notebook One, page 39</i></span></td></tr></tbody></table><p>While these quick notes of what is to be on each page kind of appear in some form in Cerebus #21, the pages don’t align with the actual issue.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>Margarethttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04070671522440242311noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837001751311078781.post-47925734151263343132024-02-28T08:00:00.082-06:002024-02-28T08:00:00.145-06:00Varkdalorian Variant Cover<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiogmWTAF956FJXS1bX8mx_HQiNpBAm_spsd-U8O7al-g56ls93C9zFsVNn1qnPzbeOQ6a_fq55fkxTiY8BR2vdNj2lJaRxQrHQX38zw3ZIReVgRNOrRKmsZ4Lw3jo4VteoUt3F_PcwuKBQsDuvMWM3WyE3VrfoqLWKD7Zsi2ptMv5J2A9Ga2H2Es4vP8BC/s1000/cererbus%20and%20hobbs%20logo.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="538" data-original-width="1000" height="344" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiogmWTAF956FJXS1bX8mx_HQiNpBAm_spsd-U8O7al-g56ls93C9zFsVNn1qnPzbeOQ6a_fq55fkxTiY8BR2vdNj2lJaRxQrHQX38zw3ZIReVgRNOrRKmsZ4Lw3jo4VteoUt3F_PcwuKBQsDuvMWM3WyE3VrfoqLWKD7Zsi2ptMv5J2A9Ga2H2Es4vP8BC/w640-h344/cererbus%20and%20hobbs%20logo.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p><b>Benjamin Hobbs:</b></p><p>One of the next CIH? books coming out is THE VARKDALORIAN.

Art auctions, the Cerebus spin-off promotions, etc. all are to keep the bills paid and Dave able to work on Strange Death, right?</i></p><p><i>Am I missing anything? Is this it? Where does the version you've been sharing pages from start, from where Carson took over to finish the Living the Line edition or at some other point?</i></p><p><i>Thanks,</i></p><p><i>A Fake Name</i></p><p>TL;DR version... yes, yes, yes, some other variation, yes, no, yes, page 253.</p><p>I actually cover all of this in excruciating detail in the Notes from the Interim Head of SDOAR Division that will be in the Giant-Size Ashcans.</p><p>After Glamourpuss ended, Dave decided to publish The Strange Death of Alex Raymond comic book with IDW, the first several issues which are found complete with covers within the Living the Line edition.</p><p>At some point later, IDW believed that a hardcover of Dave's work would be more appropriate which is why the individual issue style faded away and the Living the Line version continued with more of a straight up narrative, broken down by increasingly lengthy parts.</p><p>Then Dave's wrist gave out and he tried out several artists to continue the artwork. Carson won the sweepstakes, but when the California Test Fundraising edition failed to generate much in the way of sales, Dave decided the whole venture was doomed to failure.</p><p>Carson convinced Dave to allow him to publish via Living the Line and after several mishaps the hardcover was released to critical acclaim, but so-so sales from Dave's perspective.</p><p>After receiving funds from several patrons, Dave continued with his work to pick up after the pages that Carson had printed in blue ink. Therefore, Giant-Size Ashcan #0 will reprint the 21 blue pages using Dave's mockups and effectively pick up the story from page 253 of the hardcover.</p><p>Giant-Size Ashcan #1 will begin the process of printing the new pages Dave has mocked up or drawn and pick up directly after those 21 pages.</p><p>And yes, at some point, Dave's wrist and modified drawing motion allowed him to continue drawing, hence the shift from mockups to drawn pages. What the end product is beyond the Ashcans is TBD. </p><p>To quote Dave “As Ted Kennedy might say, we’ll drive off that bridge when we come to it”</p><p>Make sense?</p><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><p style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Just the GoFundMe Facts, Ma'am</span></b></p><div style="text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><ul><li><b>$10,875.00</b> raised to date from 182 donations</li><li><span><b>58 new pages </b>released as mocked up by Dave Sim from 11 June to 16 November 2021</span></li><li><span><b>79 total pages </b>available on Dropbox, including Dave's 2019 mocked-up pages</span></li><li><b><u>$125.00</u> away </b>from unlocking page 80</li><li>If you have <u>not</u> donated > <u style="font-weight: bold;">$5+ donation grants access to all 79 pages</u><b> </b>and <b><i>all pages moving forward</i></b></li><li>If you <i>have</i> donated, thank you, <b>but if you want to donate monthly, GoFundMe does not offer that option, so please do so as we are in the middle of month #2 of Year 2.</b></li></ul></div></div></div></div></div></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span><b>SDOAR 2023 GoFundMe -->></b> <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/f/sdoar-2023">https://www.gofundme.com/f/sdoar-2023</a></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>The Strange Death of Alex Raymond Preview, Part Eight</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/2024/01/sdoar-202-strange-death-of-alex-raymond.html">This</a>, <a href="https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/2024/01/sdoar-203-still-busy-still-stealing.html">this</a>, <a href="https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/2024/01/sdoar-204-progress-new-pages-plural.html">this</a>, <a href="https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/2024/01/sdoar-205-manly-isnt-only-one-to-get.html">this</a>, <a href="https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/2024/02/sdoar-206-alls-quiet-on-sdoar-front.html">this</a>, <a href="https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/2024/02/sdoar-207-progress-yeah-lets-call-it.html">this</a>, <a href="https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/2024/02/sdoar-208-up-next-on-bbc1-anonymous-and.html">this</a> Oxford comma and finally ellipsis comma of which the aforementioned Anonymous duly noted colon</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><i>The Oxford Comma is an attribute of an advanced civilization.

He had filled 36 notebooks during the years he created the monthly <b>Cerebus</b> series, covering issues #20 to 300, plus the other side items -- like the Epic stories, posters and prints, convention speeches etc. A total of 3,281 notebook pages detailing his creative process. I never really got the time to study the notebooks when I had them. Just did a quick look, scanned them in and sent them back to Dave as soon as possible. So this regular column is a chance for me to look through those scans and highlight some of the more interesting pages.</i></div><p>This week we’ll be seeing more material from Dave Sim’s Albatross One, his first notebook used in the production of Cerebus. Before this notebook, he would use sheets of paper just laying around the studio. We started this journey in Albatross One a while back starting with page #1 and Cerebus #20, and now we’re up to page 31 and Cerebus #21 material. If you want to go back and see all of the other Albatross One, aka Notebook One, posts, just use the <a href="https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/search/label/Notebook%20One">Notebook One tag</a>.</p><p>Last week we see dialogue from Captain Cockroach which is in all caps and you can tell by how Dave lettered it on the notebook page that Captain Cockroach was all excited and shouting. Well, the next page in the notebook continues that:</p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY8dp4nMMUwqtEZ-lkgp9s22UBuUkco5ggLRhIBeMpmF6BcPgVxpmQPaLzL6ArapkwEOrfX7olj3bQv6zcfWgcSZqbge104l-NB0nJ7bvXTC3WGNtRLiFaXyP4S5gHJHAXu1Rvf9g5NVFi8u6O6Z_5dRI6VdXHyXaQPZWdgabYEupywpqxTGc35qxSFHcw/s1527/notebook01p031.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1527" data-original-width="1200" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY8dp4nMMUwqtEZ-lkgp9s22UBuUkco5ggLRhIBeMpmF6BcPgVxpmQPaLzL6ArapkwEOrfX7olj3bQv6zcfWgcSZqbge104l-NB0nJ7bvXTC3WGNtRLiFaXyP4S5gHJHAXu1Rvf9g5NVFi8u6O6Z_5dRI6VdXHyXaQPZWdgabYEupywpqxTGc35qxSFHcw/w502-h640/notebook01p031.jpg" width="502" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;"><i>Notebook #1, page 31</i></span></td></tr></tbody></table><p>In-between the Roach’s dialogue and the town person’s responses, there are some other world building bits, like the top right corner:</p><blockquote style="border: none; margin: 0 0 0 40px; padding: 0px;"><p style="text-align: left;"><i>President issuing his own currency.
