An experiment, of sorts (Dave's weekly update #616)

Hi, Everybody!

Like it says on the Logo:
That little bit on the bottom there...

It's Friday, so that means:
Dave's Weekly Update:

That's Aardvark-Vanaheim, PO Box 1674, Station C, Kitchener, Ontario, Canada, N2G 4R2

I know an envelope full of cash seems wrong, but it has been sent before:

___________________________
A Moment of Cerebus runs Saturday through Friday. 

The past Week in AMOC:
  • Saturday: Please Hold For Dave Sim 11/2025.
Speaking of, I'm sending the Faux for the 2025 Please Hold For Dave Sim Christmas Spectacular: It's a Wonderful Carol! on the 17th. If you wanna get in on the Seasonal Madness, get your questions in to momentofcerebus@gmail.com as soon as possible, or else it's Zuzu's petals for you...
  • Sunday: I clear the deck of all the stuff Dave's been sending me, including: an Off-White House Bulletin, a new variant cover by Dave, and other things...
  • Monday: The Monday Report and all the photos in the AV Family Photo Album from the 1992 Atlanta Tour stop...
  • TuesdayJen's post to help raise funds on The Strange Death of Alex Raymond GoFundMe$185 until page 122 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
  • 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 #169!
  • 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 last week on AMOC. You're welcome.

Like the logo? I stole it...









And, coming in February, The 1982 Tour Book (click the link to be notified on launch).
______________
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...)
The site offers UK shipping, so PRESUMEABLY it's printed and shipped there(?).
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.) 
Mike updated and said:
By now, Patrons should have in hand (or it's on the way), their copy of YEET Presents #68. Let's give it a week and if you don't have yours, let me know.

This was a very popular issue and probably due to the talent pool and especially the brand new story by Dave Sim. I know many of the new subscriptions were just for that story and the plan is to cancel once you get the book. We ask that you give YEET a chance and hold on to your sub for a few more issues.....you just might see more of Dave's work.

Now for the extra copies and how you can get them. I will charge Patrons actual cost + shipping....so that's $3 per book and $3 shipping (in the states) for one book/add $1 for each additional book. Outside the states, we can figure out the shipping once it's sent. Non-Patrons will be charged $5 per book. PayPal the money to yeetpresents@gmail.com, use "friends & family" or pay the fees and PUT YOUR ADDERSS IN THE NOTES. Remember, there are only 150 copies of the original run and 50 copies of the second print of these books. Will we see them on ebay going for big bucks soon?

Thanks for your support. Let us know how we are doing....we need to fill the letters page. Keep the stories and art coming and.....

KEEP ON YEETin"!

Dave also wanted me to post this:

Lots of little words, click for bigger.

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
