Colin Upton, b&w mini-comics (Dave's weekly update #597)

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:


The Kickstarter ended. If you missed out, what the fuck man? I've been talking about it for weeks? Hobbs has been talking about it. Fuck, I think Jen and Mags mentioned it. Seriously?

Whatever. "You do you."
____________________
A Moment of Cerebus runs Saturday through Friday.

The Week in AMOC:
  • Saturday: A visit to the A/V Family Photo Album.
  • Sunday: The end of Cerebus #10.
  • MondayThe Monday Report, and since the Proto-Strange Death of Alex Raymond is over, I run Jesse Lee Herndon's Please Hold Transcript for December 2020. 
  • Tuesday: Jen is back. (Being a globetrottin' adventuress isn't the easy gig Doc Savage stories led her to believe it was...) She's got a new raffle with updated rules to help raise funds on The Strange Death of Alex Raymond GoFundMe. As her globetrottin' continues, she may cut back or even stop updating us (which means I'll have to step up, so expect more profanity and glamourpuss...) $120 until page 117 of Dave's POST-Carson SDOAR mock-up pages unlocks. AND GoFundMe has a MONTHLY option now, so you can schedule a reoccurring donation. 
  • Wednesday: Hobbs has the Varkdalorian inside back cover. (Told you he talked about the Kickstarter...)
  • Thursday: Margaret has posted ALL of Albatross One. (If you click that link, you can see all the pages of the notebook, OR, you can get a PHYSICAL copy here.) And all of The Last Notebook. Now she's gonna burn through all of Notebook #21. So sit back and get ready for pages and pages and pages of walls of handwritten text...
  • 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:
Acquaintance to the blog Travis sent in:
My Kickstarter was unsuccessful. Thank you for adding it to the blog in the last several days.
I appreciate it.
I decided to just put the comic for sale on Lulu.

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.

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!).) Here's the first trailer.

Obviously I'm not listing the Cerebus Jam April wants, and there's a bunch of Waverly Spawn #10 books in the OTHER AMOC Prize Box (along with postcards and stickers and whatnots. NO. I'm not going thru that one right now. I'm supposed to be in the Please Hold Editing Suite working on the many many videos and Audio. But, currently I'm downloading the CBZ files from the High Society Audio Visual Edition so I can get the jpgs so I have the covers to issues 26-29 for Dave's answer to Steve Peters question. (It's NOT procrastination if you can find a good excuse Margaret...).)

ANYWAY, I'm MORE than willing to trade any of this for Neat Stuff, but since mailing things is my Kryptonite, you're more likely to get me to do something by offering to trade any of this for money. The more you pay, the faster I get to the post office...

If you NEED/WANT anything from the Waverly Press/Aardvark-Vanaheim offerings, I guess you can ask and I'll go dig through the effin' box...

Email momentofcerebus@gmail.com if you're interested...

Don't say fuck words to the fans, Manly. If anyone missed out why just wait on the ever reliable distribution system that now exists to disturb you.

Mighty big thanks from Dave and Rolly and me for all the awesome Kickstarter action this time around. Everyone have a great long weekend.
