News! Some breaking, some older than my kids...combined!

Hi, Everybody!

News!
Form & Void:
Greetings backers,

The collectibles produced around the Form & Void book have come in over the last week. We are in the final stages of the design of the actual book which is looking great! We will send out the next update when the book has gone to print which should be before the end of the month. For now, enjoy the images below!

Form & Void is still available on Indiegogo for a limited time in case you know anyone who missed it on Kickstarter.

More News!

I mean, old news is still technically news...
 
Ya know, I was THERE:





Margaret was there too. Weren't ya Mags?
That's DAVE'S Diet Mountain Dew she's drinking...

Dave had a good time...I think...
Look at that smile...

I got 55 more articles from Dave, so I guess there won't be anymore slow news days on AMOC...

The Death's Dark Tread deal just keeps evolving...

The offer still stands at $5,528.11, but a new update has arrived, courtesy of Eddie Khanna:
Hi Matt. We thought this might be something you'd want to post on AMOC and the Facebooks.

So Sean, Dave and I have been quickly coordinating with getting useable hi-rez scans of upcoming CEREBUS artwork for sale from a particularly prominent High-End Auction Site, and we have a fan of the work who is willing to actually go to the site and do the scanning for us (for which we are ALL VERY GRATEFUL), since the auction house doesn’t do hi-rez scanning on behalf of others.

However, this does involve buying and shipping a new Sean Robinson approved scanner that can be used for this situation and whenever it arises in the future when more artwork comes on the market through the site.

Total cost of the scanner plus shipping was $1,022. So anyone who wants to chip in and help defray the costs to AV, feel free to help by Paypalling Sean through seanmichaelrobinson@gmail.com and be sure to click on “Friends and Family”, and AV will reimburse for the remainder.

So far we have $600 (!) donated towards the scanner. If we somehow get more than required, the extra money will go towards payment of our volunteer’s expenses and time.
-Eddie
SO, that's a thing. (I've already got my imaginary Mexican talking to the pledge partners...)

Lets just say that was the last time I had an acoholic beverage and leave it at that. . .

Wow. Blast from the past! Thanks for posting, Matt. Although, why does it make ME feel old that your kids (combined) don't date back to 2005? Why, why, it seems just like yesterday! I had forgotten about the Waterloo Films project, which never happened. I believe this was the same company that was, or did, start a documentary on Dave and Cerebus. On one of my trips to Kitchener in preparation for the show, I got a tour of the city from Dave as a warm up for the documentary. I saw Now & Then Books, City Hall, and the place where he found a dead body. Creepy. I'll have to see if I have a digital copy of Dave, Gerhard, Mimi, and I at the closing weekend of the exhibition in Salt Lake since you posted pics from that on Ger's birthday...

Ok, what’s the story about Dave finding a dead body?!

Man, I wish I’d gotten out to see the Ye Bookes display… sigh!

Travis,

Dave found his first landlord's body after a Christmas party in 1975(?), If I remember right.

He's told the story a couple of times. I think Eddie sent me pictures of the place when Dave took him on the Kitchener Cerebus Tour.

I think I remember that story now that you mention it.
