Doorway to the Unknown (Dave's weekly update #506)

Hi, Everybody!

Dave's Weekly Update:

You don't need to search Heritage. I got you, Boo...




_______________________________________________________________________________
Which has a Kickstarter now:

Two EXCLUSIVE variant covers:

The Christmas Edition is also available as a card.
_______________________________________________________________________________








HEY! Speaking of Kickstarters, Steve Peters' has Dave's Sparkybus as a Variant Cover:

Limited to 50 copies.

But if you don't want a comic, MY prints have been printed, signed, & shipped:
100 B&W, 50 "colour". I dunno what Steve's gonna sell 'em for, but the B&W are signed by Dave and Steve, and the "colour" are signed by them and ME (since I "coloured" it.). Coming to the Kickstarter tonight.

And James Windsor-Smith's Papa Balloon & Cactus #3 ALSO has a Dave Sim Cover Variant:

Both my friends are about halfway to being funded, so if you want some neat comics with a Dave Sim connection, here ya go.
_____________________________________
This ends on Sunday, and I've gotten TWO entries, so they MIGHT both get Original Dave Sim Art...
It's not that hard of a contest to enter, much less win...

New Contest: Fill out the word search, send a copy of your completed entry to momentofcerebus@gmail.com by October first, and you'll be entered into a drawing for a Little Orphan Aardvark prize back! (What's in the prize back? I dunno. I haven't figured that out yet, but it's GURANTEED to have at least one piece of paper with Daddy Varkbucks signature on it (it'll say "Dave Sim", not "Daddy Varkbucks", but you get the idea...) (The piece of paper could be anything. A vintage Cerebus comic, a promotional postcard, original art, anything! Ya know...that Dave has sent me and is in the AMOC Prize drawer...). Plus a L.O.A.S.S. entry kit for those not in the wordsearch. Maybe FIVE American dollars... The possibilities are nearly endless (the actualities are not.). )

RULES (Read these carefully, ya don't want to be a Seiler and end up disqualified...):
  1. Fill out the wordsearch.
  2. Send it to momentofcerebus@gmail.com
  3. 1 (one) point each for each name on the list found
  4. 5 (five) points for any word NOT on the list found. (MINIMUM THREE LETTERS! "BE" won't get you shit. Ya gotta put in a little effort. ALSO: Real verifiable words only. (Although ya may get extra points if you find "Kwyjibo"...) 
  5. Bonus 50 (fifty) points if you can identify WHO these people actually are (10 (ten) points for a partial list since you guys probably will never guess who Empennage and Sundrop are, I don't even think THEY know...)
  6. Get your entry in by October (10) 1st (first) (That's 10/1/2023 for you guys living in the future...)
  7. After that I'ma take the entries, calculate the points, and highest point total wins the Big Prize, everybody else gets entered into a drawing for a 2nd (second) place prize. Depending on turnout, EVERYBODY might get a prize. Or, if this one actually takes off and more than Zipper and Dodger enter, there might only be 3 (three) prizes.
  8. My decisions are final.
Good luck! And Remember" Aardvark is counting on YOU!
