December 16 2007 "Collateral Damage"

Muchas Gracias to Margaret for pointing me to another nice endorsement of "The World Without Cerebus" project.

Nice! Thanks.

And now, a reminder - At the end of issue #29, Cerebus and the (not real) Regency Elf were playing wickets in the Upper City. Cerebus lined up a shot and "CRAK" ... his red-striped wickets ball went flying over the wall. The WWC moment here - what happened to that ball when in careened into the Lower CIty.

"Collateral Damage"






































And, lest we forget:

"Torn Asunder"













"Fallen Idol"

It's really cool, isn't it?

I have shown them to a few people outside the inner-circle of Cerebus fans, and the intrinsic humor of "Collateral Damage" is immediately recognized.

It's genius.

Has DVS seen this, any idea?

I have no idea.*

* I've certainly not heard from him since he decided I had joined the knife-stabbing minions of Bwahahahaha-EEEEvil when I stated that I was not partial to some of his recent solo commissions {but not all, given that I picked up "Frost Giant" and the Kirby Homage quite enthusiastically [and apparently against the will of the member of the conspiratorial horde of daemons (or, as Flip Wilson used to say: 'tis the Devil made me do it!") that are out to rid the world of... oh, never mind, it's too confusing to keep up with terracentricists since they pardoned Galileo] and will continue to exercise what I believe passes for my Free Will in judging the aesthetic appeal of artistic works}, and instead of commenting about about that, I simply decided to ignore it.

Diagram that... I dare you.

I just now came across your WORLD WITHOUT CEREBUS project (via a nod over at the Savage Critics blog) and--Holy Bleep!!!--what a brilliant idea!!! Those first two Gerhard commissions are wonderful.

(I should note that I got my start with Cerebus way WAY back with issue 44 and followed it all the way to the end)

I should also add that you can Absolutely include me in on getting a collection of these prints together. Amazing stuff.
