Btw is it the 4 year anniversary of "Dave Sim's Weekly Update" this month? First video on the channel is from March 2015. Every Friday for 4 years...has that been matched by any vlogger? Does that make Dave Sim king of the internets?!

There's something about it that made me put it at the top of my read pile. "Captain Zap" sets the reader off on a journey that forces him to examine himself as an individual while the characters do the same. This isn't a comic to glance at, this is a comic to read and think about.And MORE great stuff from John Christian

Oliver, I have no fashion sense, but I thank you for the compliment anyway. My sense just narrows down to the thinking of what colors match which garments in my wardrobe. I wore the black blazer because the color of the sweatshirt (MAROON) underneath the "Approval" tee did not match the color of the tee itself (RED). So the blazer "cooled" down the outfit IMO.
Really I wore warmer colors in order to coincide with "March Madness." I'm a life long LOUISVILLE CARDINALS fan and wanted to show my support WITHOUT necessarily showing said support. I thought about putting my "L's up" (google that) but thought better of that. Could have been construed by Cerebus fans or at least fans outside of KY as a gang sign or something. Also didn't want to distract from my main point of the photo: SILVER CEREBUS #1 is OUT!
Anyway, thank you again. Gonna post Matt's latest "Please Hold" and then your latest entry of Cerebus Around the World onto Twitter this morning.
Cheers!
Speaking of fashion sense - Colleen dresses as elegantly as she draws, doesn't she?
Mr. Dunlop, I am only vaguely familiar with her work. However, looking at the picture of her, I am inclined to agree with you. She is dressed very nattily, if I do say so myself.
Hi Brian,
I'd recommend going to a library & looking at a volume of "A Distant Soil" sometime, just to see if you like it. It's not everyone's cup of tea story-and-characterwise, but the drawing is so clean and pure - like fresh spring air after an April rainfall.
Thank you for the recommendation, Tony. Much appreciated.
Welp, there goes MARCH MADNESS! NCAA Tournament will only allow essential personnel and "limited family attendance" at the games this year in light of COVID-19 concerns. Will still be televised though. If anyone here, who happens to follow college basketball, wants to know what Coach K might say when he curses this might be your only chance.
Are there any Cerebus fans, besides myself, who even care about college basketball out here?
Not me, but my nearly 80-year-old Dad basically self-quarantines in his house for 3 weeks every March. And apparently right now is a good time for a nearly 80-year-old to not be going out much. Good timing, NCAA!
Thanks for chiming in there, Tony. I hope your dad is able to root for his team(s) this month but the way things are going (NBA Season Suspended, Tom Hanks sick!) he and the rest of America might miss out on March Madness this year.
In the grand scheme of things not a biggie. However, it's just bizarre to see major sporting events being cancelled for the foreseeable future. Never imagined this happening. Ever.
I wondered who bought that Cerebus match book, seems to have found a new home with Margaret. I was tempted, but not sorely.
Steve
