The Nerdy Show celebrates 40 years of a comic book milestone: Cerebus the Aardvark:
It’s an independent comic that took the world by storm, changed the
industry forever, and broke bold new ground with its hilarious and
heart-rending story. The series was written and drawn by Dave Sim with
background artist, Gerhard. Together they chronicled the life of this
ill-fated aardvark with Sim drawing the characters and Gerhard anchoring
the cartoon animal into immaculately rendered environments.
This archival HeroesCon panel is a one-on-one conversation with
Gerhard as Cap Blackard learns about the artists’ collaborative process in
creating the longest-running indie comic of all-time, how to ditch
school but still get some book learnin’, and breaking beyond the
background with Gerhard’s new project, The Smile of the Absent Cat, written by Grant Morrison for Heavy Metal.

Really enjoyed the podcast
Great interview.
I'd love to listen to more stories from Gerhard about his time on Cerebus.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again here, no matter where you encounter him, Ger is *always* the nicest guy in the room.
Great interview.
