Vark of God, Part 2 (Dave's weekly update #613)

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:
A Moment of Cerebus runs Saturday through Friday. 

The past Week in AMOC:
  • Saturday: I "investigate" a non Dave and Ger Cerebus page.
  • Sunday: I got mail...
  • Monday: The Monday Report and the transcript for Please Hold 4/2022.
  • TuesdayJen's back! And she's posting to help raise funds on The Strange Death of Alex Raymond GoFundMe$134 until page 121 of Dave's POST-Carson SDOAR mock-up pages unlocks. And se's got FOUR Silverspoon strips up for grabs. AND GoFundMe has a MONTHLY option now, so you can schedule a reoccurring donation. Jen's got a raffle. Details at the link... 
  • Wednesday: The NEW Cerebus in Hell? weekly strip continues. Follow along on Instagram. And there's a new Kickstarter has launched.
  • 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, Cerebus #168!
  • 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 two weeks in AMOC. You're welcome.

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
