Hi, Everybody!
Like it says on the Logo:

It's Friday, so that means:
Dave's Weekly Update:
I don't see The Mocker listed on Robin's site. But here's the Amazon link.
But THAT'S not the big Update this week:
Hi Matt,
Here is the big news from Dave. Dave's landline is NOT working right now. His phone and fax machine do NOT work either. I have tried calling him and leaving a message, but he does not get the message and he has no dial tone either.
Bell Canada is upgrading the old wiring system in his neighbourhood and older homes with the older wiring will be affected (Dave is one of those houses), however it might not fix Dave's phone and fax problems. He is waiting to see on a week by week basis to see if the landline works again or not.
*** Any messages that you need to send to Dave, please send them to SCP and tell them to print it out for Dave. I will pick up the printed-out messages from SCP and give them to Dave. ***
So, unless something changes, next month's Please Hold will be done entirely in semaphore.

A Moment of Cerebus runs Saturday through Friday.
The Week in AMOC:
- Saturday: Please Hold For Dave Sim 5/2025...PART 1!
- Sunday: Please Hold For Dave Sim 5/2025...PART 2!
- Monday: The Monday Report, and Dave's answer to the question we missed in Please Hold For Dave Sim 5/2025 and NOT PART 3 (See, the Audio was like four and half HOURS and I had a funeral to go to, my wife wanted to spend time with me, and it was FOUR AND A HALF HOURS of audio I had to edit into (so far) sixteen different videos. (I'm not done yet, I think there's at least two more to go. I'm working on them as soon as I finish this...))
- Tuesday: Jen's posted all the Dave and Carson pages of The Strange Death of Alex Raymond, and has moved on to the mock-ups Dave produced after that. Donate to The Strange Death of Alex Raymond GoFundMe to see Dave's mock-ups for the next 400 pages (eventually). $150 until page 113 of Dave's POST-Carson SDOAR mock-up pages unlocks. AND GoFundMe has a MONTHLY option now, so you can schedule a reoccurring donation. And AND, Birdsong has donated a Carson Grubaugh original SDOAR painting (it was gonna be a cover for an early version.) Jen has all "the deets".
- Wednesday: Hobbs posts the next three of nine trading cards that will be offered for the next Kickstarter. Dave would like to know if it's TOO SOON for the next KS to launch? Thoughts party people?
- 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. Currently: Issue #294-296. And she also shows some tracing papers from her collection *psst Jen: HEIST!*.
- 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.
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.
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...
