Hi, Everybody!

Dave's Weekly Update:

Temperance. He owes me $70 usD(!) for this:

As part of The AMOC Rummage Sale. Next up is:
Auction starts in five minutes. Ends next week when I post the Update. Opening bid...$27 AMERICAN. I don't care who "Waterloo Lutheran" was, or learning about his record:

Do you need a Cerebus #1? 
"Duh...of course..."
The Remastered one, not one of the 2000 originals or the XXX,X(?) counterfeits...
"Maybe..."
Well my friend, does The Waverly Press ever have your back. They got a spiffy NEW printing of the Remastered Cerebus #1, with...ahem, uh...seven new covers. (Hey, at least there's MORE than 2000 copies total...)

Hey look what they emailed me while I was typing this:
Cerebus #1 is back!
New in 2023!
The new printing of Cerebus #1 is here and this classic book has never looked better! You get the complete, original 1977 issue with remastered art plus bonus rarities not found in the 2020 printing.

Cerebus #1 features 7 primary cover variants including Dave Sim’s updated art based on his original 1977 cover. All 7 covers are available now through the Waverly Comics website. For a limited time, we are offering a discount bundle that contains all 7 covers.

The bonus 8th Glow in the Dark cover features stunning new wraparound art by Dave Sim and may be the coolest Cerebus cover ever offered!

Only 100 copies of this variant were printed and they will be offered during a 24 hour flash sale starting next Friday, July 21st at 10am est. The Glow in the Dark cover will come with 2 trading cards that are exclusive to this edition. Only at waverlycomics.com.

At Dave Sim’s request, 100% of the profits from the Glow in the Dark variant will benefit The Food Bank of Waterloo Region.
And there's a visual:
Margaret needs to see that Glow in the Dark cover:

Anyway, while you're shopping, you can bookmark their Hardcover Edition of The Last Day. (Of course if you want it SOONER, bookmark the Kickstarter page.)

Speaking of Kickstarters, here's a thing that should be coming to your mailbox in the near future:

Sh*t, I bet that means I can't see Puccini's "Madame Butterfly" anymore. Come to think of it, a LOT of opera is European guys writing about other parts of the world.
