MARGARET LISS:
A few years ago I scanned all of Dave Sim's notebooks. He had filled 36 notebooks during the years he created the monthly Cerebus 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.
We last looked at Dave Sim's notebook #20 in July of last year in Drunk Attic. It covers Cerebus #186 through 201 and as you can imagine, most of the 71 pages scanned were text.

This next page caught my eye because the way the slanted text looked like it belonged in a word balloon. It sounds like Mr Zulli talking with Jaka from issue #193.
