Christopher Woerner and that '24 election (Dave's weekly update #604)

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:

Same as the Old Hope, and Chris' Amazon store.

A Moment of Cerebus runs Saturday through Friday.

The Week in AMOC:

• Saturday: Forty-six year old comic pages. "Hssss!"
• Sunday: "Hee-hee! Punch 'em inna face!"
• Monday: The Monday Report, and Please Hold transcript for 6/2021
• Tuesday: Jen has one show left. So I step in to help raise funds on The Strange Death of Alex Raymond GoFundMe, $140 until page 118 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: The NEW Cerebus in Hell? weekly strip continues. Follow along on Instagram. 
• 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... This week, The Clueless!
• 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.

Like the logo? I stole it...

Friend to the Blog, James Windsor-Banderas-Smith has a new Kickstarter for Papa Balloon & Cactus #5. He's got a few copies of one of Dave's variant covers for the previous issues as rewards. ACTUALLY, he found a bunch of copies of issues he thought were out of print, so I think you can get the whole series. He's got T-Shirts too.

Zipper calls in a favor:

Hi Matt!

I stopped in a JAF comics this afternoon after work and had nice conversation with John. John is the owner of JAF Comics and publisher of Dreamscape Comics. He asked me for a favor. So, I'm asking if you for a favor. Can you please kindly promote John's new book, Lady Savage, through the Rigamarole. It's live on Kickstarter now and need a little push to get the book fully funded. Most of the creative team has gone to the Joe Kubert School of Art.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dreamscapepub/lady-savage-footsteps-in-eden-by-gary-petras?ref=discovery&term=Lady%20Savage%3A%20Footsteps%20in%20Eden%20Comic%20Book%20%231%20by%20Gary%20Petras&total_hits=1&category_id=250

The 1st photo is of me and John at JAF Comics holding up the 1st issue of Lady Savage which you can pledge for on Kickstarter right now. The 2nd photo is the comic of Lady Savage. The 3rd photo was from the Lehigh Valley Comic Con back in April with Gary Petras on the right holding up the ashcan of Lady Savage.

John gave me a copy of the Kickstarter book for Dave Sim which I plan to send by this weekend.

Thank you, Matt!

Michael R.

Wait a minute...I don't owe Zipper a favor...

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. And if you're going to Edinburgh Fringe, Jen's doing her One Woman show Woman in the Arena, pretty much all month. If you go, "swordfish". And send pics...
