The Strange Death of Alex Raymond New Mockups Preview 

If you haven't read The Strange Death of Alex Raymond before, we have an eight-page trailer that Dave did back in 2018: Part One | Part Two

Then the Dave Sim portion of the hardcover, presented four pages at a time:

This

Thisthisthis
Thisthisthisthis

Thisthisthisthisthisthis
Thisthisthisthisthisthisthisthis
Thisthisthisthisthisthisthis
Thisthisthisthisthisthis

And this.

If you want to see how Carson Grubaugh finished the hardcover, well, you're going to need to purchase a copy of your own. HOWEVER, if you want to see how Dave Sim continued the story in the blue pages -- bring me the blue pages -- mockups that appeared in blue ink in final section of the hardcover can be found here...

This, 
This, and this.

Then in June 2021, Dave picked up the story again and it continues herehereherehere, and here.

If you enjoy the journey, you can join us for all the new pages on Dropbox by donating $5 or more.

Dave could also draw on his Canada pension & old age security, which I'm sure he qualifies for; should he not want the disbursement for himself then perhaps he could donate it to the local food bank he supports as part of his zakat observances.
