Excited to purchase a comic book at local comic store when a teenager that had both Cerebus and TMNT.

"Strange Death of Alex Raymond" Swedish review: "...can not help but like it..."
And below is true of Norway as well - Rip Kirby and Agent X9 came out weekly in reruns and were everywhere. I probably know every story by heart...only slightly exaggerating:):
"...here in Sweden these cartoonists have been staples in the comic book world with their series in magazines such as Agent X9"

I never really met the Stones myself, but here is a picture I took of Mick Jagger backstage at Wembley in 1982 - I was like 14:)

Karma's a bitch, Amazon!:). Just kidding, of course, and I'm sure the series will be great.

Btw the one and only Diana Schutz congratulated us on getting the film done against all odds.

"Cerebus: Church and State 2" review
https://twitter.com/dskzero/status/1493301455301787652

"Cerebus: The Last Day" review (in Italian): "the conclusion manages to be worthy of a series that can be considered among the stories that have most influenced the comic medium and have shown its incomparable qualities"
"With the death of Cerebus, not only is there a montage to reproduce the past of the character which, although simple, manages to be rhythmic and effective, but it is in his horrifying conclusion that he finds the highest moment of him"
"Everything is handled in a fairly "dynamic" and Gerhard wayalongside Sim's drawings for the last time, giving them three-dimensionality and thickness with infinite hatches that create the areas of light and shadow in a masterly way. The word, through the balloons and the graphic deformation, which has so characterized this series, has an almost equal weight to that of the drawing. It is the dialogues, or rather, the shape of the words that characterize the text and make it important, almost more than what is actually said"
