What Birthday?

Yes, it's Dave Sim's Birthday coming up and since he doesn't surf the net I can safely say we'll surprise him with a little animated Bday greeting on this Friday's Episode 10PM Eastern at Cerebus TV

"Claghorn, Leghorn, Elric & Elrod" Dave Sim discusses the development of one of the most popular Cerebus Characters, Elrod the Albino, a parody of Michael Moorcock's Elric of Melniboné, channeling Warner Brothers cartoon character Foghorn Leghorn by way of the Fred Allen radio show character, Senator Claghorn. See the actual letter of comment Michael Moorcock wrote to Sim more than 30 years Ago!

Auction tie-in: The unpublished zombie cover variant of CEREBUS ARCHIVE No.4 featuring the first appearance of Elrod."


Maybe you'd like to buy him a present from the Cerebus TV gift shop:)
