Dave Sim talks to Kim Preney.

Hi, Everybody!

Before Neal Adams went and died on us, Dave sent me this:

In which he talks to Kim Preney of Preney Print & Litho, about the 90 copies of Cerebus #300 that they had on hand and which they've given back to Dave:

Speaking of the dearly departed Neal Adams, David Birdsong sent me Green Lantern/Green Arrow 83 Page 3 that Dave was talking about yesterday:

And speaking of Original Art, The Death's Dark Tread deal just keeps evolving...

The offer still stands at $5,528.11, but a new update has arrived, courtesy of Eddie Khanna:

Hi Matt. We thought this might be something you'd want to post on AMOC and the Facebooks.

So Sean, Dave and I have been quickly coordinating with getting useable hi-rez scans of upcoming CEREBUS artwork for sale from a particularly prominent High-End Auction Site, and we have a fan of the work who is willing to actually go to the site and do the scanning for us (for which we are ALL VERY GRATEFUL), since the auction house doesn’t do hi-rez scanning on behalf of others.

However, this does involve buying and shipping a new Sean Robinson approved scanner that can be used for this situation and whenever it arises in the future when more artwork comes on the market through the site.

Total cost of the scanner plus shipping was $1,022. So anyone who wants to chip in and help defray the costs to AV, feel free to help by Paypalling Sean through seanmichaelrobinson@gmail.com and be sure to click on “Friends and Family”, and AV will reimburse for the remainder.

So far we have $600 (!) donated towards the scanner. If we somehow get more than required, the extra money will go towards payment of our volunteer’s expenses and time.
-Eddie

SO, that's a thing. (I've already got my imaginary Mexican talking to the pledge partners...)

Hi, Everybody!

If you haven't heard yet, Neal Adams died yesterday.

And as you can expect, I got a fax from Dave:

I could only find images of these two. (click for bigger):

I'm sure Dave and I will be discussing Neal further when we Please Hold For Dave Sim next week. Get your questions in to momentofcerebus@gmail.com

Speaking of Heritage, they're gonna be auctioning off a whole buttload of original Cerebus Art. Including, but not limited to, the complete issue #4. I wanna buy it and give it to Dave. I can't afford that, so I'm looking for a handout. So far, I've gotten pledges from seven people for a total of $5,528.11 (Thanks Dion!) And since the two "big fish" want the art to go back to Dave, THAT'S the plan. But, as I keep reminding everybody, Money Talks, Bullshit Walks. So, if you WANT a page of the art, pledge more than Dion's $2500, and YOU get to dictate who gets what...

Please Hold For Dave Sim 9/2021

Hi, Everybody!

It's the FIRST Saturday of the month, so THAT means:

Crap! I HAD the Please Hold For Dave Sim logo hand lettered in the original...

That's right, it's Please Hold Time!

First the Audio:

I decided that the videos are getting discontinued, because the audio is terrible, and they're only a back-up for the bits of the Audio I lose when I stop at fifty-five minutes and have to save the segment (Anchor limits my clips to an hour, at fifty-five minutes I get the "time's almost up" warning, and just cut it there.). 

I THOUGHT, that I could easily upload the audio and an image into a video and then edit them down into the segments, but HA-HA(!), no, no I can't...

But I DID find a NEW app-thingy that will let me do it, and it's gonna be better as I learn what I'm doing, so I hope you Video/YouTube fans appreciate all the time and effort I made to: download the podcast segments, insert them and the image into the new app-thingy, download THAT video, transfer it to the video editor software on my tablet, edit them down into these segments, transfer them BACK to my laptop, upload them to YouTube, and then embed them here. (After FAILING to make them into videos three different ways before I found the app-thingy...) ((So, basically, I DIDN'T get to watch Mad Max: Fury Road, last night, like I planned...)) (((You're welcome...))) Since it worked, the Videos will continue, for now.

Part 1:

We begin with Dave asking if I had heard if anybody got their Cerebus Archive Number Nine portfolios, and I said I'd ask, and then MY CAN9 showed up yesterday:

My mom, who was over babysitting my brats...er, kids, asked about the return address, I told her this is the return address I use for any Cerebus related stuff I send... (Actual location of The AMOC Cave redacted. For your protection)

And the PRINTED address label made me giggle:

(Again, for YOUR protection... (I'll hit you with a baseball bat if you show up uninvited...))

So I got my CAN9, AND (because I'm a member of The Little Orphan Aardvark Secret Society) this:

NEAT!

Dave/Rolly also included:

I've heard reports of other people getting other volumes that they didn't order, so I'm ASSUMING Dave sent them as an apology for the delay in getting the portfolios out.

Anyway, then Dave answers Seiler's phone question

Part 2:

Over on the FaceItBooks, Will Gray asked:    

(on August 16th): Wondering how Dave is gonna take the Taliban victory since it contradicts his thesis in his essay “Islam, My Islam”

And I commented in the fax: 

Well there goes the next two hours…

Part 3:

Friend of the Blog, Steve Peters asked:

Hi Dave: Noting that Marvel's Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings is being released this Friday, September 3rd, I was wondering if you observe any comic book metaphysics at play. Looking at Gene Day's Wikipedia page, I see that he was born on August 13 and died on September 23. So the film is coming out pretty much exactly at the midpoint between those two dates.
While we're on the subject, can you tell us anything about Gene Day's Black Zeppelin? I see that it was published posthumously by Deni's Renegade Press, which leads me to think Gene and Deni were on pretty good terms.

 Always a good time to remind everybody:

Part 4:

Steve Swenson asked:

Dave: the issues you and Bill Loebs signed ~~ how did that work? Did an authorized CGC rep witness your signing them and then transport them to Bill?

And on a similar topic: have you considered 'hosting' a CGC rep for a signing, something of that nature.

I have a few books I'd consider sending your way -- unfortunately not my 4 authentic #1 copies, which I sent to CGC just a few months ago. It would cost too much to do all over again...

Thanks as ever for your time -

Steve Swenson

Dave also faxed me this:

Part 5:

Margaret posted this:

and said it was “a sketch of the cover for Anything Goes #3:” and shared Neal Adams cover:

 

I pointed out that the sketch was for page one of the story, and Mags said:
“You get what you paid for.
“Looks like the cover to me. Just 'cause Dave didn't draw the cover himself doesn't mean that this sketch wasn't used in the cover's creation. Perhaps ask Dave next time you talk to him.
“And if me being wrong actually creates some discussion on these posts, perhaps i'll continue to make up shit, eh?”

Well Mags, I ASKED Dave, and...

I WAS RIGHT, I WAS RIGHT, I WAS RIGHT!

But I'll leave it up to the AMOC readership to see if they concur.

Does this:

Look more like the left, or the right?

And here's the original:

Part 6:

We bring it on home with Jen DiGiacomo, who asked (in an email titled: ONLY IF you are short on questions for Dave...):

...otherwise happy to re-submit come September.

Hi Dave!

 

It's Jen again. Since you have had to endure so many interviews over the years, and read through even more as you've meticulously researched a litany of literary figures, I am curious who you find to be the best interviewer based on personal experience *and* in a broader cultural sense. 

 

I'm going to guess that Shel Dorf isn't going to make the cut. And for the sake of propriety, we'll take it as granted that Manly Matt tops your personal list.

 

Cheers! 

Jen

The Manly one sez: First off, nobody likes a kiss-ass Jen. Second off…

Okay, I done did what I was axed to do, see you tomorrow!

Next Time: More reviews?

More penciling, more inking, more auctions...(Dave's Weekly Update #291)

Hi, Everybody!

COMIC LINK AUCTIONS!!! Where you can get: a Platinum edition of Birthday card #1 signed by NEAL ADAMS, and DAVE SIM, with a NEAL ADAMS Superman stamp. OR, a Gold edition of Birthday card #1 signed by NEAL ADAMS and DAVE SIM with NO STAMP. Or, OR, a print of the Cover to GREEN DANTE/GREEN VIRGIL #1 (Pretend you're Seiler. Impress your friends. Make your enemies super-jealous,) there are three of them, but one of them shall be mine! (Ya know, as long as none of you guys got more money than me...)

Wanna give Dave and David And Davjamin... er, Benjamin, and Sean monies, but don't wanna deal with the hassle of going to a comicbook store and tracking down a copy of the latest Cerebus in Hell? One-Shot (The LGBTQetc. People is the next one coming,)? Well, we've got you covered.

If you're in the market to dress like Dave Sim, you can buy a "Matt D's A Moment of Cerebus" t-shirt right here. Or, if you're one of those nostalgia buffs who likes the earlier funnier A Moment Of Cerebus posts, the Tim W. Logo is available too. 

The remastered Volume 1 is available digitally for $9.99.

If you want this:

UPDATE: Bidding's at EIGHTEEN bucks, thanks to Larry Wooten! (Thanks Larry!) (All the money goes to Dave, I get nothing. (By choice.))

If you got a couple of extra bucks and want to do a fellow Cerebus fan a solid, Friend of the Blog Mike Battaglia has a go fund me here. 

All the Postcard from Hell? #2 surveys are in, and the cards are at the printers.

Let's look at what you can get in the NEXT GREAT A MOMENT OF CEREBUS ORIGINAL ART AUCTION (Who thinks Seiler has any money left?):

Cerebus' left arm: All Ditko/Adams'd up

Worried Cerebus: All Ditko/Adams'd up

Cerebus Staining to NOT be consumed by the Spider-Beast*: All Ditko/Adams'd up

Cerebus straining to NOT be consumed by the Spider-Beast*: All Ditko/Adams'd up

The Amicable Spider-Vark Logo: Pretty much just Ditko'd, 

I don't know if Dave's gonna add more stuff to this Auction Next Week, or if this is all there is, so I'm starting the bidding at thirty bucks (US Dollars!).

*I'm pretty sure the Spider-Beast first showed up during J. Michael Straczynski's Amazing Spider-Man run in the early 2000s.

Dave sent me a bunch of scans, so next week, there might be, Spiderbaby!


Next Time: The ol' AMOC Mailbag is got some nifty stuff in it...

The Ol' AMOC Mailbag? Again?!? Yeah, from DAVE SIM!!!

Hi, Everybody!

The second Postcard From Hell Kickstarter is up. Three days left.

The remastered Volume 1 is available digitally for $9.99.

If you got a couple of extra bucks and want to do a fellow Cerebus fan a solid, frequent commentator Mike Battaglia has a go fund me here.

Friend to the Blog, and the guy who thinks Kirk VS Solo would be a WAY less interesting fight than McCoy VS Lando: Steve Peters has another Kickstarter going. (I have a joke in one panel.)

Can Dave still ink? Let's start with a pencil... (Dave's Weekly Update #280)

Hi, Everybody!

The Jaka's Story remaster has a Starcode!  APR191258 First month orders will be signed and numbered! "However many orders there are in the next 3 weeks, that's how many signed copies there will be. Diamond will order over the initial orders by some other amount, and those will become inventory books available after the initial order...but they won't be signed." [Thanks Sean!-Matt]

Greg Hyland is Kickstartering the second volume of the Monster Atlas, and if he gets another fifteen hundred and fifty-eight bucks, it'll have Gerhard art like the first volume. It'll look a little something like this.

There's more auctions up at ComicsLink (ten days left). And last week's update has a special AMOC auction. (Seiler's winning at $100 US.)

If you're waiting for a Indiegogo live for the Postcard Kickstarter, like the one for the birthday card Kickstarter, I don't know if there will be one.

The remastered Volume 1 is available digitally for $9.99.

And, heeeeeere's Dave:

Hi, Everybody!

There's more auctions up at ComicsLink.

If you're waiting for a Indiegogo live for the Postcard Kickstarter, like the one for the birthday card Kickstarter, I don't know if there will be one.

The remastered Volume 1 is available digitally for $9.99.

And The Jaka's Story remaster won't get a Starcode number until the April previews is out, so hopefully next month.

And, heeeeeere's Dave:

Hi, Everybody!

Heeeeeere's Dave:

There's a Indiegogo live if you missed the Kickstarter for the birthday card.

The remastered Volume 1, digitally for $9.99.

Your pal and mine, Sean Michael Robinson hasn't gotten the Kickstarter up yet, but that's only cause he's busy with this:

                                                                                                                                                           
Jaka's Story Remastered-- on the way to a Previews catalog near you!
Sean Michael Robinson:

Helloooo AMOCers! Long time no type.

This is just a quick note, followed by a quick plea for help!

At long last, the supply log jam at Diamond has broken, and we will finally (finally!) be soliciting for a new fully-remastered printing of... dah dah daaaah.... Jaka's Story!

The book is scheduled to appear in the "April 2019" Previews, with a on-sale date towards the end of June 2019 (hopefully the same day as that month's Cerebus in Hell? issue). 

Dave has agreed to sign and number EVERY copy from the initial Diamond order, so if you'd like a signed copy, you'll need to order early through your local retailer. (Menachem Luchins of Escape Pod Comics will also be happy to take mail-orders if you don't have a local comic store) The following month non-signed copies from the same printing (but with a different ISBN) will also be available.

Unless you've seen some of the Jaka's Story original art in person, it's hard to describe how different this book is going to look from earlier printings. Rest assured I'll be dropping in periodically here to share portions of the essay, samples of the art, and to crowd-source last minute proofreading and bookplate design ideas. 

But speaking of essays... I now reach the pleading section of this little post.

Does anyone out there in Cerebus Reader Land have a copy of the Wizard magazine article/profile/whatever-it-was with Gerhard which reproduced copies of his Jaka's Story interior designs? Gerhard has shared scans of his penciled tracing paper drawings with me — designs for the interiors of the grocery, Jaka and Rick's apartment, and Oscar's apartment — but I don't have any scans of the finished pen and ink drawings of those same views, and other architectural elevations he did for the project.

I'm about 70 percent sure these appeared in WIZARD... but it's also possible it was in another profile somewhere.

So! Do you a. have these? and b. have access to a desktop scanner?

If so please do let me know in the comments! I'll be looking for either 600 ppi or 1200 ppi COLOR scans of the pages in question from anyone who might be able to oblige. And if you're in the US, I'll send you some nifty gifts in return! (If you're not in the US, I'll... hm. I'll think of something!)

Thanks to all for reading!

Hi, Everybody!

I'm visting Santa, so let's make this short.

Your pal and mine, Sean Robinson sent out an update to the Kickstarter for the Birthday card:

Hello folks,

With only four days left, we've added an additional a la carte item limited only to US backers.

If you pledge $50 you'll receive a copy of the remastered Church + State I, signed and personalized to you by Dave Sim on a label with a gold-seal Cerebus Archive logo. This item also includes your signed and personalized b-day card. If you'd instead like this item a la carte, then please add $40 to your pledge and leave a comment containing the words "C + S I" to reserve your copy. This special "birthday card edition" will be numbered, first come first served, out of a maximum of 16 available copies.

These copies are leftovers from the stack of promotional copies sent to Living the Line headquarters in San Diego shortly after the printing of the book, and as such are in immaculate condition, having never been unboxed from the printer. Dave will be signing Cerebus Archive sealed labels, personalized to you, and mailing them to California, where they'll be affixed and shipped.

All the best,

Sean

So, there ya go...

Got mine last weekend...

As seen here.

So, it sounds like Patreon supporters get a birthday card for free, but if you don't want to be in a long term commitment with Dave, he's gonna do a Kickstarter for just the card (? I guess I'll try to get clarification on that.)

My thoughts on price are: triple the cost of the cards, plus the maximum for shipping, at a minimum. Fifteen bucks American at a maximum. Dave said the cards will cost $1.50, so three times that is $4.50. Plus $2.50 for international shipping is seven bucks. Yeah, I think $15 American is reasonable. But, please, feel free to comment on your thoughts.

Comics Link. Well, that's over. I didn't win nothing. Looks like Dave made out like a bandit though...

Next Time: How many Cerebus titles are there anyway?

A pleasant surprise...

Hi, Everybody!

So, I got a weird email from "Dave," with some images , and no context.

But thanks to Friend of the Blog, and Heir to the Throne, Eddie Khanna (and Dave's Patreon,) I got the lowdown:

CEREBUS BIRTHDAY CARD NO. 1 (2019)

Hi everyone! I wanted to give everyone the heads up about this special reward for Patrons from Dave: 

"As you should be seeing soon on AMOC, Neal Adams has agreed to let me use a drawing he did of Cerebus for Dean Reeves as CEREBUS BIRTHDAY CARD No. 1 (2019). When you get a chance please let the Patreon Patrons know that they each get a personalized one mailed to them in time for their (2019) birthdays."

I'll be looking into getting addresses and birthdays from anyone interested, (which I assume should be possible through Patreon; otherwise I'll collect them through my email), and will let everyone know once I've set it up (along with an image of the illustration, which I assume is the one found here:)

Best,

Eddie 

Sounds like now is the time to become a Patreon Patron if you're not already one.

It is the image Eddie linked, click for biggerness

Click. Big. Er.

The inside of the card 

Neal says this is cool.
