The very first thing Dave did, IIRC, was to hand off some notebooks (I believe they were the first batch) to the divine Miss M. There were some other fans (readers) there, most notably Larry Hart, and we were BEGGING Margaret to let us look at the notebooks.<br /><br />Nope.<br /><br />She was so nervous just to have them in her hands that she disappeared to her room shortly thereafter.<br /><br />It was truly a seminal moment in Cerebus fandom. <br /><br />I hope one day that they will be released on CD-ROM or in whatever medium they can be at that time. Not just here. Although, I suppose that we may see some of that in the High Society collection and we have already seen some of it in the reprint monthlies.<br /><br />Still, just seeing those notebooks in person (but not the interiors) was stultifying.Jeff Seilerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15543690118315946039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837001751311078781.post-37632003119628509412014-06-25T22:18:58.362-05:002014-06-25T22:18:58.362-05:00I noticed it too.

I wonder if it's because he's referring to the series and not the character, or because Cerebus is an hermaphrodite.Ethan Burnsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837001751311078781.post-75813611946648580842014-06-25T22:18:53.952-05:002014-06-25T22:18:53.952-05:00I don't think the change from "his" ...I don't think the change from "his" to "its" had to do with gender; I think Dave meant to refer to "Cerebus" the book, not the character. I think it was just a genuine slip. The rest of the sentence seems to be about the milieu of the book; not the central character. <br /><br />- Reginald P.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837001751311078781.post-73235772648103109252014-06-25T18:56:10.307-05:002014-06-25T18:56:10.307-05:00Anyone else notice the changing of "his"...Anyone else notice the changing of "his" to "its" in reference to Cerebus in the second paragraph? <br /><br />Thanks Margaret for putting these up.
