CAN 12 Preview: The Chase Card Prizes (part one)

Hi, Everybody!

Cerebus Archive Portfolio #12: Rick's Story is (most likely, but there's a chance I'ma wrong...) launching in June.

As part of that, Dave's gonna do more postcard puzzle packs.

And as a part of THAT, he's gonna have:
PRIZES!

And I got the scans of the FIRST batch.

Unfortunately, since Dave canna no fax, I don't have descriptions of what they are exactly, but I can hazard a fair guess:

A slabbed copy of the New Mutants graphic novel. Why Dave has this in the first place? No. Idea.

A slabbed copy of the DC Star Trek #1. (Canadian Price Variant.)

SuperCerebus VS Possum-At-Large #1 preliminary SuperCerebus figure tracing paper
(Click for bigger)

Shannon Wheeler's Too Much Coffee Man Magazine #22 with a Dave Sim cover

Tracing paper for the cover to the Ultimate Cerebus  Guide to Self Publishing
(Click for bigger)

Uh...this is one of the covers for The Varkdalorian, but it may be a variant of the published cover, or a proof...

The preliminary (but very much NOT the final!) version of CereQuinn
(Click for bigger)

A slabbed Cerebus #0

A slabbed Signature series Cerebus #18

An UNCUT cover to Cerebus #263 (where the heck did THAT come from?)

This is an original piece from glamourpuss. Don't know the issue number of the top of my head...
(Click for bigger.)

This is another original to a glamourpuss issue. (One of the swimsuit ones...)
(Click for bigger.)

Lindsey Lohan from glamourpuss (I don't remember which issue.)
(Click for bigger.)

This is another variant cover, so maybe a proof?

The preliminary for Dave's variant cover. (don't worry, he's hand drawing this one, and it's gonna be spectacular...)

Rigamarole:
THINGS ARE TOUGH ALL OVER: It seems like EVERYBODY has a crowd funding campaign type thing going on:
Friend to the Blog, Steve Peters has launched his latest campaign: Comicverse #6. He's got all sorts of neat stuff on offer, some of it from previous campaigns, meaning "there's Dave Art in them there add-ons!" I dunno, click around and see what he's offering. The campaign has met it's goal, but he followed KickStarter's advice and lowballed that. So more money would mean he doesn't lose money on the deal.

Don Simpson has one.

I'm selling bootleg Cerebus trading cards featuring my art, coloring by Hobbs, and unused art of MY characters by Dave. $10 a set for 11 cards plus TWO HANDDRAWN cards (by me). Email momentofcerebus@gmail.com and I'll explain how to pay.


The Help Out Bill Messner-Loebs Go Fund Me, or buy Rodney Schroeter's book with proceeds going to Bill. More on this as I'm allowed to post stuff...

Our very own Jen DiGiacomo is part of a film production titled The Day Elvis Died. She'll never ask anybody here, but they're crowdfunding to finish the post production on the movie. (It's set in 1977, will a certain obscure Canadian cartoon aardvark make a cameo? (No. Elvis died in August. Cerebus wasn't published until December. Any appearance in the flick would be an anachronism that would ruin the movie for everybody. EVERYBODY!).) 

The current thinking is that CAN12/The Varkdalorian will launch in June. Dave has ideas, more on this as I figure out what the hell Sim is planning...

Vark Trek (now renamed The Varkdalorian) and Lone Vark and Cub are proofs. The issue went through a couple of more edits since those were printed.
