Vark of God, Part 3 (Dave's weekly update #614)

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: Hey! I know that Aardvark!
  • Sunday: I got seven more pages of SDOAR from YEET Presents. More on this in the Rigamarole.
  • Monday: The Monday Report and the transcript for Please Hold 5/2022.
  • Tuesday: Boy, when Jen comes back, she really comes back! And she's posting to help raise funds on The Strange Death of Alex Raymond GoFundMe$129 until page 121 of Dave's POST-Carson SDOAR mock-up pages unlocks. And she's got FIVE Silverspoon strips up for grabs. Plus, she shows the difference between these Comic Buyer Guide pages she's raffling off, and the strips as you've probably seen them. AND GoFundMe has a MONTHLY option now, so you can schedule a reoccurring donation. Details at the link... 
  • Wednesday: The NEW Cerebus in Hell? weekly strip continues. Follow along on Instagram. And the new Kickstarter ends in nine hours. They added new stuff like tracing papers and such. Hurry if you wanna get any of that...
  • 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.

The Help Out Bill Messner-Loebs Go Fund Me, or buy Rodney Schroeter's book with proceeds going to Bill. OR(!) you could buy Bill's book with the Dave backcover. I have discovered links:
Wanderland (Paperback but slightly more expensive...I dunno why...)

And Journey Complete:
And if you wanna see how the book looks in Real Time...

Over on the Facebookees, Mike Jones shared that Dave has a five SEVEN page Strange Death of Alex Raymond story in YEET Presents #68. Ya gotta back them on Patreon to get it.  The deal is:
Get every new issue of "Yeet presents" in your mailbox and never miss the thrills and the fun only this magazine can give you! Remember we need your physical address (you'll be asked after you pledge), this is no digital thing, it's a real, professionally printed magazine! :)
There were ONLY 150 copies printed, but thanks to SDOAR being in there, demand has increased and Mike went back to press for FIFTY additional copies! Get 'em while they're hot! (I'll post low-rez scans when Mike is sold out.) 
Five bucks in the US, $6 in Canada, and $10 outside them two. The link has all the details.

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
