Initial Thought of the Day

I had a dream Wednesday night that Dave Sim returned to Cerebus for a 27-issue addendum called "Revival" where a back-from-the-dead Cerebus spent his time writing insightful letters to random cartoonists, including Charles Burns and Jim Davis. This inexplicably led to a Harry Potter-style surge in the popularity of the entire Cerebus saga. I stopped by a downtown Chicago Border's to buy the new last issue of the series, #327, and it cost $20 plain, $40 signed. Sim had arranged the rows leading up to his seat behind the signing table so that no one could actually make it up to him. I was told by a burly handler that this was "to teach us a lesson."
