Gerhard's "Regency in Ruins" finished!
http://www.gerhardart.com/apps/blog/regency-coloured

Gerhard adds: "... or at least this is a photo of how it turned out. It doesn't quite live up to the real thing. I'm going to have a high quality scan of this done and I will post the results.
Then we can talk about prints... of this and other World Without Cerebus pieces as well."

Coming April 19 - the http://CerebusTV.com/ event of the year! Cerebus graphic novel co-creator Gerhard and creative partner Shelley Byers do an exclusive full-length interview with Comixbook.com's Max Southall.

Ger reveals his amazing art techniques as he creates commissions, with the CerebusTV camera running! Updates on Animation Director Oliver Simonsen's Cerebus 3D movie and Kickstarter for rendering - the rushes from his team are incredible - along with his exclusive animation for CerebusTV. Plus -- new Dave Sim (Cerebus and Glamourpuss writer/artist), more indie creator interviews and surprises. Now with iPad/iPhone/iPod versions

Lyrics to new Cerebus song by Chris Mullings


Tarim’s Eyes…

He came to our city at dawn…and I request that you move on.

He stands not so tall but his shadow is darker than em all.

Time and time again, he strolls on in and takes what ain’t his

Go ahead and turn around… You can’t face him down…



By Tarim’s eyes…Don’t believe the lies

By Clovis’ beard…Don’t believe what you hear



He’s a savage wit and a sharper sword like you’ve never known before

Lost in a world all his own, you live there but your owned.

What’s your’s is his and that’s just the way it is…



There is no pity to be had from the fur clad.

When this earth pig is on your trail…you will surely fail.

He wanders the land drinking ale & wining the blondes on & on & on

For a jingle of change… He brings a world of pain…



By Tarim’s eyes…Don’t believe the lies

By Clovis’ beard…Don’t believe what you hear



He’s a savage wit and a sharper sword like you’ve never known before

Lost in a world all his own, you live there but your owned.



He’s a savage wit and a sharper sword like you’ve never known before

What’s your’s is his and that’s just the way it is…

You too will sing his song…on and on and on…
