Story and art by Dave Sims. Art Restoration by Sean Michael Robinson.
In December 1977, Deni Loubert published Cerebus No.1, Dave Sims comic book that followed the adventures of a short-tempered, barbarian Aardvark. Originally conceived as a parody of Barry Windsor-Smiths masterfully illustrated Conan the Barbarian (which was a big hit for Marvel Comics in the 1970s), Sim quickly developed his own voice as a storyteller and illustrator, eventually abandoning the typical self-contained, single-issue adventures, in favor of elaborate story-arcs spanning dozens of issues.
The early 1980s saw the popularity of Cerebus rapidly grow, igniting a revolution among self-motivated artists and storytellers who were looking for ways to go it alone, outside of the corporate structure of the big two publishers of the day, Marvel and DC Comics. Dave Sim, by now regarded as the leading maverick in the field, helped pave the way for a new generation of self-publishers, including Kevin Eastman and Peter Lairds Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Jeff Smiths Bone, Colleen Dorans A Distant Soil, and the Image Comics revolution! Along the way, Cerebus cemented its place as one of the most intelligently written, and influential comic books of all time.
Though the series ended in 2004 with issue No. 300 after more than 6,000 pages of story and art, Cerebus still enjoys a loyal following of readers to this day. In fact, intense collector demand has driven prices of the first issue to thousands of dollars!
The Waverly Press, in collaboration with Aardvark-Vanaheim, present this groundbreaking series, from the moment where it all began, with stunning, remastered art, available in two editions. The STANDARD 24 page book reproduces the original 1977 edition as Dave Sim intended. The 48 page EXPANDED edition features the original story with an additional 24 pages of art and rarities from the Cerebus Archive, with all new captions by Dave Sim. The 48 page expanded edition comes in two cover variants, the GOLD cover, and PLATINUM signed & numbered cover. The Waverly Press editions were produced in very limited quantities and will not be reprinted or widely distributed.

1982: Seismic changes were in the air… New Wave music ruled the airwaves, Spielbergs E.T. dazzled at the box office, and the term internet was first used to describe the new international network of communication. The comic-book industry was also experiencing great change as ambitious young self-publishers started beating the drum of revolution in a long-stagnant field. Among them was Dave Sim with his creation Cerebus the Aardvark, which was rapidly growing in popularity to the point that copies of the first issue had risen from $1 to hundreds of dollars in just five short years.
December 1977: Dave Sim and his soon to be wife, Deni Loubert, printed two-thousand copies of Cerebus No. 1, and distributed them to Now & Then Books in Kitchener, Ontario, Big Rapids Distribution in Lansing, Michigan, and Sea Gat Distribution in Brooklyn, New York, establishing a clear trail of where nearly every copy went.
April 1982: Ten copies of Cerebus No. 1 were found at a flea market and sold to a comic book shop. Then twenty more were sold to the shop down the road… Then thirty more… Forty more… In all, nearly two thousand newly discovered copies of this rare and sought after book were sold to comic shops from Berkeley, California to New York City. Every single one – counterfeit.
This is the Secret History of the Counterfeit Cerebus No. 1.

Written by Dave Sim. Art by Dave Sim and Gustave Dore. Cover by Benjamin Hobbs. It all starts when Super-Cerebus eats a batch of Red Xenonite brownies which, in this case, causes his Amphetamine Vision to run wild, killing the infernal dead with heart attacks! Because they're already dead (the third or fourth time around, actually), it causes them to become 'Nietzsche-ed'! Which really hacks off Satan! Fortunately, Super-Cerebus is able to switch into his civilian identity as Kent Olsen, FOX NEWS Gehenna news anchor! And just in the nick of time, Dante and Virgil change the channel to Ophidian Sportsnet 2's 'Red State vs. Blue State Bloodbath Live.' Don't Miss: Satan's flawless Rupert Murdoch impression! Don't Miss! The Cerebus In Hell? Emergency Change of Premise! Don't Miss! 48 pages, B&W. Cover price $8.00.
