GCD Synopsis;

** Cerebus falls in with a couple of thieves, who hire him to help break into a wizard's home and steal the Flame Jewel. The aardvark's previous experiences with sorcery serve him well, and he is able to fight past numerous illusions before killing the wizard. After receiving payment, Cerebus explains to his dismayed comrades that the Flame Jewel was magically linked to the wizard. When he died, the gem reverted to its natural state: a plain walnut.

** This Classic Anthropomorphic Satire, Parody, Spoof, Fantasy Supernatural Series Lasted 300 issues, the Longest Running ALTERNATIVE Comic Series of ALL-TIME;

** Offered here is the new 2020 REMASTERED edition of Cerebus No. 1 published by The Waverly Press in collaboration with Aardvark-Vanaheim.

** This authorized edition features newly remastered art, printed on premium paper, overseen by Cerebus creator Dave Sim.

** The print run on this edition was very low with most of the books being sold in advance on Kickstarter, and these are among the last copies in the publishers inventory. This rare edition is sure to be an instant collector’s item.

** (Dave Sim, 2020; I have waited 43 years to see Cerebus No.1 the way it was supposed to look. Thanks to Sean Michael Robinson and The Waverly Press that wait is now over)

** Every legend has a beginning…In December 1977, Deni Loubert published Cerebus No.1, Dave Sim's comic book that followed the adventures of a short-tempered, barbarian Aardvark. Originally conceived as a parody of Barry Windsor-Smith's masterfully illustrated Conan the Barbarian (which was a big hit for Marvel Comics in the 1970's), Sim quickly found his own voice as a storyteller and illustrator, abandoning the typical self-contained, single issue adventures in favor of elaborate story-arcs which would often span dozens of issues. 

** The dawn of the 1980's saw the popularity of Dave Sim's Cerebus explode, 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 at the time, Marvel and DC Comics. Dave Sim helped pave the way for countless other self-publishers of the day, including Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Bob Burden's Flaming Carrot, Jeff Smith's Bone, and Colleen Doran's A Distant Soil, to name a few... Along the way, Cerebus found its place as one of the most intelligently written, entertaining, 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 an intense and loyal following to this day. 

Due to popularity of Cerebus, original copies of the first issue now command thousands of dollars, putting them out of reach for most collectors.
