Hi, Everybody!
Dave Faxed:
We found the other one.
_____________________________
Well as I've been saying:
For the next little while, EVERYTHING on CerebusOverload.com is 30% off (with the code: 30OFF).Offer ends when The Waverly Press launches Cerebus #2! (Like, I wouldn't wait until the last minute, because that's gonna be...Monday-ish)
Tuesday, the Kickstarter for Cerebus #2 goes live.
I got the 411. Wanna "in"?
First, there are gonna be seven covers (there are two more in development that AREN'T going to be part of the campaign.) (At all. I just mention them, because there was the possibility of NINE covers, but 9 covers would just be ridiculous😜 ...) The cover colors are by the usual team of Birdsong, Hobbs and Robinson.
Here are five of them:
Each book will come with a new trading card.
And there are gonna be premium cards that come with some of the premium packages:
 |
| Dave Sim autographed card |
 |
| This is gonna be a glow in the dark card. Of the Demon Klem. |
The promise is that this will be a more stripped down campaign that the last couple of Waverly Press offerings...
BUT, they are going to be adding "signed, graded and encapsulated books. Since so many people requested this service the last time out, Dave and I figured it's worth trying out."
And:
There are a few stretch rewards lined up and will consider any suggestions from Dave's collectors.
If there is anything someone would like to see produced that we haven't thought of, we want to hear from those folks.
Pricing starts at $10. And goes up from there.
And it ALL STARTS ON TUESDAY!
______________________________
Which leads to Heritage, and the fact they're gonna be auctioning off the original art to the Cerebus #2 covers (5 of them,) and the NEW Cerebus #1 (just 1 of them.)

Seeing as how there were no backing boards last time, to save cost obviously, there should be an addon for backing boards. If they don't want to pay for them at least give the customer the option of paying for them.
I am hoping for the 11x17 "posters" of the covers again, like with Spawn 10. I really don't want\need 7-9 copies of the comic, but am more than happy to pay for posters. They're easier to hang up on the wall anyway. 😎
How long will the campaign be? (I forget the length of earlier campaigns...sorry.)
A short campaign (two weeks doesn't take us into the next month. Instead the campaign would end when guys are counting their pennies and waiting for their next paycheck.
To be more clear, along with aiming to prevent simultaneous campaign (that is, making Hobbes wait), planning should include an ideal ending date...first week of the month...before the wife clamps down on non-"essential" spending. Her ideas of essential and mine are so completely different. So many shoes!
I second posters of covers. I love the little prints but feel stupid buying all those covers. Not that I won't, but I just don't see a future to these single issues.
I would love to see Hardback omnibuses of the three hundred issues (near facsimiles). Those hardcovers Hobbes is putting out are spectacular. In my mind (and wallet) I see the need for both these and the slipcased phonebooks on my bookshelves.
I wonder about the "new" story. What would a campaign of this as a "chapbook"..."mini-comic" bring. Or better yet, a series of "lost" Sim stories where a comic-sized collection of these are run as a campaign. Different cover for each story, etc.
So...when is Waverly going to give a small plush of Cerebus? I see them all over now days. Easy to do, but not quick to design and recieve. A highly desirable collectable. I'd buy two; one left in the bag and to to cuddle with at night....err...I mean used as a dog toy.
