Dave Sim takes a closer look at his work on The Beavers in Quack #4, using preliminary sketches and correspondence with Quack editor and publisher, Mike Friedrich. How did Sgt. Duck of the Mounties and Duck Trek begin to lead him, even subconsciously, in the direction of Cerebus (then less than a year away)? Also, in the "TMI" section, Sim finds himself necking with his then 18-year-old future sister-in-law when Deni is away on vacation with her parents. A good example of how his (up 'til then) simple life was getting way more complicated.
