CEREBUS FACEBOOK GROUP

Cory Foster: Did I miss something about the "censored" Batvark Penis issue? It was supposed to be in stores on the same day as the "uncensored" one, right? I never got it and now they're doing a second print?
https://www.facebook.com/groups/cerebus/permalink/3441504599250224/

Chad Lambert: All of the comic sites are listing a new edition of High Society out today with bookplates? Does anyone have any additional info?
https://www.facebook.com/groups/cerebus/permalink/3443624042371613/

Giacomo Santangelo: Hope everyone has an Objectively Happy Halloween!
https://www.facebook.com/groups/cerebus/permalink/3451379648262719/

William Lopez: So I’m in the process of getting all the phone books and received this in the mail today. It seems odd compared to the other ones I’ve gotten so far. It’s church and state 1 but it doesn’t include the volume 1 under the title and lacks the typical spine information such as title and number. I tried researching this but couldn’t find anything. Does anyone know what the deal is with this?
https://www.facebook.com/groups/cerebus/permalink/3443314099069274/

Kevin Kovelant, Gilles Coin, Gary Boyarski and more in the comments: it's a first printing.
Jeff Seiler: You should NOT read that copy. First printings of the phone books are rare. And, some have binding issues.
Tyler Symes: At least Church & State has a picture on the spine. (it's Melmoth)

Lenny Cooper: Duh oh! No first printing for me!

Tony Tower: "First print of HIGH SOCIETY (blue arrow) was the same deal" And yes he bound the volumes to the right:
Did them myself a few years ago. I bought everything from mid-CHURCH & STATE onward off the stands as single issues, and since the glue on the phonebooks could be so dicey, I liked the idea of binding them better. . .

John Christian: My phonebooks. I have the "no title" spine editions of C&S 1 and 2, Jaka's Story, and Melmoth. The titled spine versions are remasters.

David Rankin: Here's my collection, mostly first prints, showing Flight as the first with spine text! The first four I got bound into hardback although the paper I used for the dustcovers have somewhat browned!

Ron Essler: Back in 2006, during the weekend Gerhard quit, I was hanging out with him and Dave at Mimi Cruz's house, when I saw her and her husband Alan's Cerebus trades, and the first five had no printing on the spines, and that's how I found out that the first printings were that way.
Margaret Liss: There are a few more phonebooks that don't have titles on them. As far as I know, the first one that was the 3rd printing of Melmoth. And I saw I saw a Cerebus volume 1 with just the title and Dave's name on the spine, but no number.
Though Nathaniel who has a more comprehensive knowledge of the phonebook printings then I do could probably say which phone in the early 90s started the title on the spine.

Nathaniel Radman Oberstein: Unfortunately, I'm still missing 16 Trades. And I'm still missing one of the Swords. I also haven't updated my list in a bit. The ones in red without checks are the ones I'm missing.

CEREBUS IN HELL? PREVIEW 2021

The "Censored-For-Grandma" variant Batvark XXXXX SECOND PRINTING

HERMANN #1 has gotten FOCed.

I hope you picked up the Vault of Cerebus this past Wednesday. 

Next month, pick up Spider-Whore.

Signed copies of Vark Wars: Walt's Empire Strikes Back (Signed by Dave, Signed by Dave and me, Signed by me after I scribble out Dave's name, Pretty much available Signed only...).

 

Check out the new Cerebus masks and whatnots. PENIS and XXXXX added. (I'm not adding the Second Print cover unless there is actual demand.)

As you all know, Wilf Jenkins was the Aardvark/Vanaheim lawyer for years, and during that time he was on the comp list. Wilf saved all his copies. Dave and Wilf have signed them, and there's a certificate of authenticity. The books will be available from Looking For Heroes, for $10 (CAD) plus $4 dollars shipping to Canada and $5 dollars shipping to the USA. All the money goes to the Food Bank of the Waterloo Region.
