Published Oct 2002 by Aardvark-Vanaheim.$2.50
by Dave Sim & Gerhard Latter Days: Part 18 (of 35) "Still Chasing YHWH"?The side-splitting sequel to last month's laff-a-minute, sleeper hit of the fall. Cerebus continues his study of obscure, sacred text Konigsberg, the not-so-good Samaritan has brought him. The countdown to issue 300 (March, 2004) continues... t-minus 17 and counting! b&w, 24pg $2.25 POSTSCRIPT: Back in December of 1977, little known Canadian artist Dave Sim sat down at his drafting table and came up with a cute little aardvark holding a sword. Little did he know then that 25 years later, that little earth-pig would be the model for all independent comics yet to come. Cerebus is closing in on it's final days as Sim has said from the beginning that it was to be a 300 issue "mini-series". We've seen Cerebus go from being a Conan-esque parody to a hard-hitting social and political satire and have seen Dave evolve from "one of those guys who does black and white comics" to one of the biggest proponents of creators' rights, and a figurehead of sorts for small press and independent comic books. In addition, we have seen the Cerebus comic change and transmogrify from being a traditional comic, to pure prose, to illustrated prose and back again. Also, I would be remiss not to mention the always wonderful letters page. As this monumental series winds down, issue 283 has just recently hit the stands, let's all take a moment to give a hearty handshake and "thank you" to the man who has taken us on a long and memorable journey by all sitting down and reading the beautiful tales he has given us. There's always a lot more to Cerebus than the ongoing Cerebus saga. You also get Dave Sim--smart, articulate, with plenty on his mind, and with no fear of expressing just what he thinks. Case in point is this issue of Cerebus. "Why Canada Slept," a three-part series appearing in Cerebus 283, 284 and 286, looks at the reaction of western democracies to 9/11 and ensuing events. If you've wondered why Canada and much of Europe have no stomach for facing down terrorism, Dave Sim's "Why Canada Slept" shines a bright light on this compelling issue. Here's to you Dave; thanks for the Cerebus memories and for having the courage to say what needs saying. Cover price $2.25.

by Dave Sim & Gerhard Latter Days: Part 19 (of 35) "Still Chasing YHWH III"?Don't believe the hype! It's a sequel! We know you're getting tired of hearing this, but Cerebus continues his commentaries on the sacred tests, while Konigsberg's love life ? which had been looking so promising up until the last page of last issue ? hits rock bottom. And for Konigsberg, that's really saying something. The countdown to issue 300 (March, 2004) continues... t-minus 16 and counting!
