Rolly says:

Also, I took some photos for the website of Cerebus No. 4 Remastered comic book (I also sent these photos to David Birdsong to put up on the KS).

The Cerebus No. 4 Remastered GOLD comic book should be mostly printed by next week. It takes longer to do the GOLD version, then the printing of a regular comic book.

Update-y things.

Hi, Everybody!

Updatey-things!

Living The Line, Sean Robinson's publishing company that did the Eisner nominated Strange Death of Alex Raymond (Grubaugh Edition*), sent out:

The Living the Line 2022/2023 sampler is here! Hello everyone! Sean here. I hope this message finds you well! This is just a quick message to let you know that the Living the Line 2022/2023 teaser sampler is here now, and ready to download! This PDF gives a brief overview and sample pages of many of our upcoming titles, including our comic store-only miniseries, The Abolition of Man, the upcoming stunning books The Exile, Centralia, a first peek at Matt Battaglia’s House on Fire, and our catalog titles as well! Click the above link to view or download the sampler.

As you can see from the schedule below, we’ll have even more announcements soon, including cover reveals for Path of the Shades by Clarence Dass, and Matt’s finished House on Fire cover. The current plan is to run Kickstarters for two of these titles — the Exile and Centralia, as both of these books will be very expensive to produce in the oversize color hardcover format. The Exile will likely launch November 1st, with Centralia following a month later. We would LOVE to have YOUR input on these campaigns, and any help you can provide promoting for these titles! Every book we’ve published so far has been because of the good will and input of our backers, watchers/listeners, and other supporters, and these titles will be no different. (In fact, it was a YouTube follower who alerted me to Erik Kriek’s work in the first place, and set both of these titles into motion). As such we would really value your feedback. What would YOU like to see in these campaigns? What type of titles would you like to see in the future? Let us know! All of these are stunning books, and we couldn’t be prouder to be bringing them to you! All the best, Sean Currently announced for 2022/2023 — Plaza by Yuichi Yokoyama, translated by Ryan Holmberg (September 2022) The Abolition of Man #1 by Carson Grubaugh (October 2022) The Abolition of Man #2 by Carson Grubaugh + S.

*that's what I'm calling it.

Anyway, you can follow Carson on his Instagram. And him and Sean on the YouTubes. 

Over at the Cerebus No 4 6-7/78 & POT8.2 by Dave Sim Kickstarter, Birdsong posted:

Another delivery from the printer!
This time we feature the Cerebus No 4 All-Gold Remastered version. The gold was hard to capture in a photo but Dave likes what he sees and these are good to go. There's also a quick look at the portfolio plates that Dave has approved as well. All printing should be finished in the coming week.

There may be additional photos on Matt Dow's:
https://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com
tomorrow evening if Matt is able to share them in time for tomorrow's update.

I put 'em in a video yesterday. 

If you are a member of Instagram you can now follow The Waverly Press. They are beginning the process of assembling the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles No 8 Remastered version for January 2023 and sneak peaks will be available in the coming weeks.

Ok, pictures...

I just made another video. (It only takes TWICE as long as resizing the photos...)

Problems viewing this video? Watch directly on YouTube...

As Rolly said in the email about the pictures:

Hey,

Dave wanted me to send you photos of the GOLD version of Cerebus No. 4 Remastered proof that showed up today at Camp David and Dave took a look at it. He likes what he sees!!!!!!!

Also, Dave was looking at the final Cerebus No. 4 Portfolio proofs that also made their way to Camp David.
PS -- Also the Cerebus Christmas card showed up as well.

The good news is that these Kickstarter items should be printed next week as Alfonso has more time now to work on this project. Last weekend was the Toronto FanExpo and Alfonso was very busy with that.

Have a great long weekend!!!!!

Eddie doesn't have an Instagram OR a YouTube. But he's got his Strange Death of Alex Raymond annotations. (I mean, I assume. Maybe he's ALL over the 'gram and just not telling me...)

Dave sends me the neatest stuff...

Hi, Everybody!

As the title says, Dave sends me neat stuff:

Back DURING the The Kickstarter for the Cerebus #4 CAN Portfolio 6-7/78 (get your surveys in, and fix your payment if you're one of THOSE PEOPLE...) Dave sent me scans of the Cerebus head sketches he did (as they were pledged for):

They wuz all this big. I trimmed them down for the postings.

These are the $390 dollar level: 

If you're not Margaret, and DON'T obsessively scrutinize every Dave drawing, all three are different (the clue is the black to the right of Cerebus' head. All three are different...)

Then the BIG MONEY $900 level:

(The difference to look for here are the little lines on the snout, and the black on the lower left edge. I'd say I get paid to notice these things, but that'd be a gawdamn lie...)

 

And the $190 dollar ballpoint pen level:

And then Dave sent me:

Come on Dave! A little tease of the cover in the background? Really?!?

Don't worry Josh/Margaret, it's a "click for bigger" deal...

And then, *FAIR WARNING* *FAIR WARNING* Dave's gonna get more religious this week:

Um...I got Pope cards?

Yes, I added MLB official product stickers. Because I'm going to hell. And if you laughed, you are too.

Found it:

Here's a close-up:

Benny and Frankie aren't on the list, because they're not dead...

Hey remember the Remastered Form & Void?

Greetings backers,

Form & Void is officially in the hands of the printer!

We don't have a delivery date yet but as soon as we know when they're coming we will post an update.

Everything else related to this project has been printed so it's just down to the actual books.

For those of you that are interested, we are only producing 400 deluxe books. 200 hardcover and 200 softcover. We have a limited number still available for pre-order on the Waverly Comics website in different bundle options. Link: https://waverlycomics.com

Thank you for backing this project!

If YOU have anything related to the 1982 Tour, that'd be of interest, shoot me an email at momentofcerebus@gmail.com and I'll get it to the Waverly Press.

____________________________________

Living the Line got a new series with Carson Grubaugh  The Abolition of Man #1. It's a comic "drawn" by an AI.

They also published The Strange Death of Alex Raymond, which has the website of annotations.

The Strange Death of Alex Raymond didn't win an Eisner. We're all disappointed...
