Level playing fields (Dave's weekly update #577)

Hi, Everybody!

Like it says on the Logo:
The little bit on the bottom there...

It's Friday, so that means:
Dave's Weekly Update:

Great job by our backers reaching the Stretch Goal the day we announced it. We have passed the CAN 10 conclusion from last year, but we have fewer Backers. Hopefully with the threat of Tariffs removed those who have been waiting can join us for this one. We do want to note that the Tariffs are delayed until March 4. It would be a great thing if all Backers could get right on that Backer Survey as soon as it comes in. Dave has pre-printed some, perhaps all of the items.

Every Backer will receive all four Bacchus/Cerebus prints. We hope to have that fourth one soon to show it off.

One week left, hope to see you at the end!

I have it. I have all sorts of stuff.

This is, as far as I know, a chase card prize.

Speaking of which:

AND, jumping Dave's gun, during tomorrow's Please Hold For Dave Sim (Early Access), Dave's gonna tell you you can buy these Stay-Flats (for the prices indicated on them).
Click for bigger:






The times listed are how long Dave spent on each drawing. "First come, first cervix" HOW ya can buy these are a Birdsong question. Ask here.

AND, since I can, here's the Stay-Flats that have sold (and the one that's a chase card reward), with a MOCK-UP of the label (made using CAN10 labels) as I was told:
Also how they look when the labels are on them.

For the CAN11 label - might be just a little smaller on the Bacchus/Cerebus images so it fits on the stayflat. We are still figuring that out.




Again, these HAVE SOLD, except the last one, which is "a Major Award"...

A Moment of Cerebus runs Saturday through Friday.

The Week in AMOC:
  • Saturday: I clean up some of the faxes laying around the ol' AMOC Faxy machine...
  • Sunday: How that Cerebus/Bacchus Stay-Flat came together.
  • Monday: Please Hold transcript from 2020. Also, The Monday Report.
  • Tuesday: Jen's posted all the Dave and Carson pages of The Strange Death of Alex Raymond (except the Blue line ending to  Carson's version of SDOAR). Donate to The Strange Death of Alex Raymond GoFundMe to see Dave's mock-ups for the next 400 pages (eventually). $190 until page 109 of Dave's POST-Carson SDOAR mock-up pages unlocks. 
  • Wednesday: Hobbs shares a Narutobus/CAN11 Kickstarter update.
  • Thursday: Margaret's IS done with Albatross One. If you click that link, you can see all the pages of the notebook, OR, you can get a PHYSICAL copy here, anyway not knowing where to head next, Margaret has decided to go with the LAST notebook, from page one to the end...
  • Friday: that's this post. You're reading the Friday post right now. This is STILL like that bit in Spaceballs. (Should I link to LAST WEEK'S Update in these things?)
Okay, so that was the past week in AMOC. You're welcome.

Josh Even has a new deal for the new year:
Happy New Year! Let’s make this the Year of the Earth Pig. I have recovered from the inaugural 2024 run of 30 ‘Deluxe’ Earth Pig Warriors.
I will start off 2024 by opening up orders for the 2025 ‘Basic Bitch’ Earth Pig Warrior.
Here’s the pricing. The two prices are for ‘unpainted’ and ‘painted’. ‘Painted’ for this run means painted heads and black-lined bodies- so the medallions swords will be the comic-style gray.
If you want gold or silver medallions or a gold & silver sword, that’s a bit extra.
Shipping to the US will be included. Shipping out of the continental US will be extra (determined at time of shipping).
All orders will come with a collector’s card and some stickers!
Basic figure (1 head, 1 pair hands- right grip/left fist, one gray sword) $90/$100. Choose from one of 4 available heads (see photo).
Extras:
Painted medallions (silver or gold) $5
Extra Head $10/$20
Hands $8/$10 - left grip/right fist or open pair
Painted sword (silver and gold) $20
Fabric Vest $20
Let’s see how this goes!
Direct message me to order.
Each order will need a $20 down payment to get going.
I’ll place an order with the printer at the end of a week if I have orders. Those will be completed in the order they are received.
Thanks everyone! Tell your friends!

If you click on Josh's name, it's supposed to take you to his Facebook post. But if that doesn't work, or you don't deal with Zuck the Fuck's bullcrap, you can always send an e-mail to momentofcerebus@gmail.com, and I'll get you in touch with Josh. You can see a video of my 80s Earth-Pig Warrior here.
