Hi, Everybody!
Before I "Moment", Dave and I will be doing the December Please Hold For Dave Sim on Thursday. Get your Questions/Comments/Fruitcake recipes/whatevers to
momentofcerebus@gmail.com by Wednesday night when the Fax goes up Nort'. Please.

Which means I can grab pages from the article and "Moment"...
Is a Black Friday Miracle!
I'm not gonna run the whole thing. Mostly, because it's eighteen pages, but partly because if you like the bits I'ma post, you can
buy your own copy and support
Twomorrows so they can continue to publish their many and varied fine publications. Come on, don't be a Damian. Throw 'em a couple of bucks. You can afford it.
Anyway, Your tease my friends:
Again, if this is your cup of tea, you can get a copy
here. Roger Ash, who wrote the article, interviewed Dave, Gerhard, and Deni for it. And there is some rare and unseen bits in there. Other than the "gee-Matt-your-being-a-tad-'Seiler'-like" details that are "wrong", it's a pretty decent summation of the entire series (he says that it's almost 6000 pages long instead of over 6000 pages long...can you believe that? Huh? You can? I thought youse guys were obsessives like me...). I HIGHLY recommend that you
buy your own copy that you can pore over again and again like the Cerebus obsessive that we all know you are...
And if eighteen pages of Aardvark aren't enough, there are the other bits that are in there:

And that's another thing, if my images of the article are too small for reading on your phone while you take a forty-five minute bathroom break at work (come on Zipper, they ain't payin' ya to poop...), you can
buy a copy that you can "zoom in" on by bringing it closer to your face (by the way your reading glasses are on the top of your head. You're welcome.), and "Bob's your uncle"...
BUT, since this is the "season of giving", I'll post the next six pages of the article if thirteen people post "I'ma just a poor boy, from a poor family" in the comments.

Since it's Holiday time,
Twomorrows publishing is having their annual sale. Comic Book Creator magazine has done interviews with Dave adjacent creators like Steve Bissette, Bob Burden, (I haven't read it, so I can neither confirm or deny if Dave is mentioned) Rick Veitch, among others. And Cerebus is covered in
Back Issue #75, and the X-Men crossover is talked about in #118. And Margaret has a photo printed in issue #31. If you search for "Dave Sim", they have a bunch of issues. Anyway, just letting people know. Sale ends December 9th.

In other news, since Twitter is a dumpster-fire and most people are skipping out of there, AMOC has joined
BlueSky. Follow along. Or don't. No skin of my nuts either way...
