In October of '82, I was three, and didn't Hold nothin'!

Hi, Everybody!
Dave has things on Heritage. These are FROM the Cerebus Archive, and Dave (eventually) gets ALL the money (minus the fees and whatnot. Plus he won't believe it until the money crosses his hand... *NOT* my first "Dave waiting to be paid" rodeo...):
Cerebus #239 19 pages of Original Art Ended. Sold for $26,000 ($32,500 with buyer's premium...)

Dave sent things: 
The Cerebus the Aardvark #1 (and Spawn #10) en Español had an Art Show...down in Mexico:

And Dave's 70th Birthday Spectacular is off to a good start:

A really good start:

An Update-ish on the newest CAN/CiH? Kickstarter :

And then since you guys would rather I relive the repressed memories of my childhood...:

And we're doing the "pay for Play" again for next month. If we're doing Please Hold next month Dave is giving Everybody! an option: He'll either work on Please Hold for May June, or his notes on the '82 Tour Book. YOU can decide which he does by donating at CerebusDownloads. There are two buttons, if you want Please Hold, donate with the button labeled as such. If you want the '82 Tour Book, donate with the button labeled that. And if you want both, donate to both. (Dave never said what he'd do if there was a tie...) If you have a question, send it in to momentofcerebus@gmail.com AND throw a couple of bucks Dave's way by clicking the "Please Hold For Dave Sim" button. Or else it's MORE '82 for you...

Thanks Matt, I thought Dave would literally just be working on the Tour Book notes, didn't know we'd get more content! Will the audio of the above YouTube clips be uploaded to the Moment of Cerebus audiofeed on Spotify and the like? You"ve had interviews with Wilf and the like up there so I'm sure it will fit right in even if it's not technically a Please Hold episode

In terms of price per page I see that Marvel are charging £95 (about US $130) for their big black suit Spider-Man collection. Think Dave has a point about people not buying a $200 plus comic book sized tourbook. Although personally I'd prefer interview scans to transcripts - it gives you the original images etc without having to buy all those vintage Comic Journals and the like on eBay.

I was listening to an old Please Hold where Dave is wondering if he's still in the Guiness Book of Records - just checked and he is https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/457643-most-consecutive-issues-of-a-comic-book-drawn-and-written

I don't get why the first video is blocked here. You can see it the Matt Dow Youtube page and the Kickstarter.
