Cerebus the Trading Cards: The Checklist

Hi, Everybody!

I got an email Ben Hobbs:

Hey Matt!
Is there a full list of the Waverly Press Cerebus cards? I'm trying to figure out which cards came before the Form and Void cards and if I have them.
Thanks!

BH

Well, I'm nothing if not magnanimous with my underlings (QUIT THAT SNICKERING MARGARET! I goddamn AM TOO!) so here's the long awaited Cerebus the Trading card checklist:

(grouped by what's on the back of the card. And using my *incomplete* set of cards.)

• Matt's Bootleg card set: (I made three sets of these. Based on Dave's proposed 1980s "bubblegum cards")

1. Lord Julius
2. Sanctum of Tarim (Serra)
3. Map of the Military Federation of Lower Felda

• Waverly Press Prototype Cards

• Cerebus from the cover to #1 (Numbered "P1") two versions with differences in glossy or matte. A set of these were sent to Dave via Oslo, Norway. He signed them as "OSLO" and numbered them out of 200. I have #41.
• Cerebus from the cover to #1 (Numbered "P2") two versions with differences in glossy or matte. Different from "P1" by a closer shot of Cerebus, and the red flames are white, and the black "sky" is red. (Maybe part of the "OLSO" cards. I dunno.)
• Cerebus from the first page Dave ever did (Numbered "P3") three versions with differences in glossy or matte, also with variations in the printing on the back. (Possibly "OLSO"ed.)
• Close-up of Cerebus from issue #1 (Numbered "P4") two versions with differences in glossy or matte. (Possibly "OLSO"ed.)
• Cerebus running from issue #1 (Numbered "P5") two versions with differences in glossy or matte. (Possibly "OLSO"ed.)

Just print out this post, and fill in the little white circles of the cards you have. And feel free to comment with what cards your missing, and maybe somebody will have extras and will be willing to trade out by the bike racks at Recess...

Just stop leaving wads of chewing cards under your desk. 

You savage...

Larry Shell has made it: 

Success!

I have received just enough in donations from GoFundMe and private ones to pay my property taxes!

I wasn’t sure I’d make it. To say I am flabbergasted, surprised and tickled to death would be putting it mildly! WHOOPIE!

I will be paying the entire property tax bill on Monday, December 5th as I have to wait a couple of days for the funds to transfer to my account.

This was a group effort! I could not have done it without you! Thank you to everyone who plugged my situation and link multiple times and everybody who donated and shared the link! You people are the greatest! I am not very religious, but God Bless You all!

I will be seriously reevaluating my living situation and making changes for the better in the near future. I do not ever want to do this again!


Take care and please stay safe!
Larry

Which means if you donated, let me know at momentofcerebus@gmail.com, and in a week or two, I'll pull a name out of the shiny metal helmet to receive:

Please ignore the stupid scan line.

The last one of these. (I got two left to ink.)

BIG thanks to everybody who helped out. You guys & gals REALLY step up to the plate when it counts. And AMOC just learned that Peter David is in a bad place too, but he's eligible for help from the Hero Initiative.

AND, I'm out.

I'm going away for a week's vacation.

I MIGHT be back for the Weekly Update on the 16th (planes crash, boats sink, people disappear to Tropical Paradises and never come back...) but if not, I'm leaving this joint in the capable hands of Big Brian West (ably assisted by Margaret Liss, Ben Hobbs, David Birdsong, Sean Robinson, Eddie Khanna, Dave's Strange Death of Alex Raymond Patroness (she can introduce herself. It's NOT Margaret!), and maybe Carson Grubaugh. For ASSISTANT EDITORS WEEK II!) and he'll do a bang up job, I'm sure of it.

Okay, BYYYYYE!

Next Time: Brian sobbing uncontrollably for seven days...
