The Many Strange Deaths of Alex Raymond

Hi, Everybody!

Over on the FaceItBooks, my buddy Steve posted:

Guess what arrived today ...

Mine arrived yesterday too...

Which reminded me of all my copies of the Strange Death of Alex Raymond.

First, was the original "Proto" Strange Death of Alex Raymond:

Dave's History of photorealism in glamourpuss

The image only shows the first eighteen, but glamourpuss ran for twenty-six issues.

HOW YA GET IT:

Sadly, Dave ended the book due to low sales. And it's VERY much out of print. The only way to get a physical copy is to hunt down the individual issues on eBay, in Back Issue bins, and through phenomenal good luck.

If you're willing to settle for digital copies, "I know a Guy"...

Just email what issues you need to momentofcerebus@gmail.com, and I'll be more than happy to get you hooked up with the "Proto" Strange Death of Alex Raymond. (Feel free to tell your friends. And your enemies.)

Second was the Fund Raising Edition of The Strange Death of Alex Raymond from Dave and Eddie through Dave's Patreon:

HOW YA GET IT:

It was pretty limited, so if you didn't back it then, you're probably shit out of luck. I guess I could ask Eddie if he's got any extras. I got one that has a 50% chance of having been in my bathroom. (If you're desperate...)

Third is the preliminary Strange Death:

This is a collection of all the tracing papers Dave did in the production of glamourpuss and The Strange Death of Alex Raymond.

HOW YA GET IT:

Ya needed to back Sean and Carson's Kickstarter

Fourth is the Strange Death of Alex Raymond Volume 2 Mockup:

This is all the mock-ups Dave did for Carson to produce SODAR volumes 2 and 3.

HOW YA GET IT:

Kickstarter.

Fifth is The Strange Death of Alex Raymond:

HOW YA GET IT:

Well, you COULD have backed the Kickstarter, but you can get it through your local comic book store, Bezos, Chain Book Store, Sean, or through one of the links here.
