The Cerebus film also made the top of "the cover" of the local paper of a magical little town named "Os", which is right outside of Bergen, Norway's second largest city, where I spent a good chunk of my childhood:). (The article itself is behind a paywall)

"Comic Book Historians" blog entry on "Strange Death of Alex Raymond": "I enjoyed it, it wasn’t what I expected. I felt unsettled like I finished a David Lynch movie. Metaphysically, maybe I just did…" (with a slightly different image from last time, too. See below)

"Strange Death of Alex Raymond" referred to as "lovely" and "....a very nice piece of work"

But "Strange Death of Alex Raymond" with no Dore?

And that's our segue to the "Cerebus in Hell?" kickstarter (hence the banner, though there's never not a good reason to have an Iron Manticore banner) that is ending in a couple of days! And like all "Cerebus in Hell" kickstarters it's doing great - all three stretch goal cards unlocked!

Larry Wooten sent Dave Sim stickers - in return Dave sent Larry a pile of postcards with the stickers on them, signed so that the postcards are from them both. Plus two signed "Cerebus in Hell?" comics!

CBR's "7 Great Comic Titles That Knew When To End" features Cerebus - from the article: "...feels like a complete, focused story from beginning to end." "Fiercely independent from day one, Dave Sim and Gerhard never lost the DIY ethos that drove the title and helped it to secure such a loyal following." "It's an enduring story that's important to the medium, and it's a delight to read."

Rob Shepard shares in the comments in the Facebook group:
Cerebus is continuing; we have 2 whole issues completed in a 6 issue miniseries. It has Dave's blessings. Cerebus makes a deal with a Multiverse devil to return to life to right his wrongs, except by the time he gets back to his world, his son is dead, his grandson rules the world, to free the world he may have to kill him.

Was this the beginning of the germ of the idea for Rob?
