From the A/V Family Photo Album: Labor Day Weekend 1996 AND Some Cerebus History!

Hi, Everybody!

So in this month's Please Hold For Dave Sim (see yesterday) ((scroll down)) (((keep going until you see me say "Hi, Everybody!" again...))) Dodger brought up Susan Alston's Dave Sim's Last Girlfriend book (which as far as I can see has never actually been published...). You know it:

Classy...

Well that's the one version of the cover, there's another one:

That photo looked familiar, so I ran through the A/V Family Photo Album:

That's not it...

There it is!

But, hey! There's more:

Far be it from me to argue with Granpaw, but this photo is dated THE SAME DAY as the two above. I don't think this is what Dave thinks it is...

And this one is the day BEFORE the last one...

So, there ya go. "Cerebus" history. (Okay, okay. FINE! I'll give you some REAL Cerebus History...)

See?

Okay, more "Moments" than you can shake a baby at.

Youse welcome...
