Please Hold For Dave Sim 10/2024

Hi, Everybody!



Audio:

Video:

I decided to make the videos just a single feature length one.

This may have been a mistake. (It took just as long to make as the shorts do. But without the little "exportation breaks" I get. (Didn't help I had to haul the kids all over creation for their extracurriculars and birthday parties.) I might go back and break it up and reupload the constituent parts...if I get the time.)

  • I remember Jeff Seiler
  • The Continuity of TMNT #8 and Spawn #10 
  • Steve Peters and his ⁠Sparky: Cosmic Delinquent Kickstarter⁠ 
    • Dave has an idea to help "goose" the campaign over the finish line, but we won't find out until the almost last minute.
    • Steve has "decided to add new original art rewards. I don't know if it'll help, but we'll give it the old college try. All art rewards have the same conditions: I'll draw whatever scene you want, but with either Sparky or Comicverse characters (or, if anybody wants to get really obscure, Rabbit Hell characters). I have several 4" X 9" pieces, which will be used as single panels in a future Comicverse story, or blank Comicverse sketch covers."
Like this one I got in the past:

  • Who used the Lectratone, and when? 
  • Dave's favorite Cerebus covers 
  • What are the beliefs one has to hold to be a Marxist? 
  • A correction regarding last month's discussion of Chester Brown's Mary Wept Over the Feet of Jesus 
  • Why the earliest Cerebus Trade collections are "spineless" 
  • Does Dave do commissions? 
    • Answer: Yes. A the more you pay the better they'll be...
  • A discussion of Monotheism 
  • A discussion of Jim Valentino 
  • Dave's thoughts on Manga 
  • The amazing price a slabbed Cerebus #1 went for 
  • The two different covers of Swords of Cerebus #1 
  • The 1982 Tour book
Plus, the usual chitchat.

It's two hours and eighteen minutes. Heck, that's almost as long as a GOOD Marvel Movie. Make a bucket of popcorn. Get a large drink. Take an edible (if their legal where you live.) Kick back. Relax. And watch the colors man...

Dave/Cerebus adjacent Kickstarters:
Steve Peters he's not even 50% funded, but he's offering New Art Rewards:
With one week to go, we have a very steep climb to the finish line! I've decided to add new original art rewards. I don't know if it'll help, but we'll give it the old college try. All art rewards have the same conditions: I'll draw whatever scene you want, but with either Sparky or Comicverse characters (or, if anybody wants to get really obscure, Rabbit Hell characters). I have several 4" X 9" pieces, which will be used as single panels in a future Comicverse story, or blank Comicverse sketch covers.
I've gotten a few of the sketch covers, and Steve ALWAYS knocks it out of the park. Can't recommend that option enough... Six days to go.
James Habaneros Rancheros Windsor Catherine-Jones-Starky he's made it, but you  still have 53 hours to get in on the fun!
Shannon Wheeler, totally funded. I'ma getting a copy because I bought the last collection, and remastered goodness is always cool.
Robert T. Jeschonek, launching soon.
John and Scott Palochik, 19 days to go. Dave liked issue #1.
