"Fables" compared to Cerebus in Vulture interview
http://www.vulture.com/2015/07/fables-bill-willingham.html
Fables Creator Bill Willingham:
"My initial conviction, once it looked like the thing had legs and that it would go for a while, was that I wanted Fables to run for one more issue than [Dave Sim’s comic] Cerebus. That was, at 300 issues, the longest-running series by a single creative team, so I would’ve liked to do 301 just to do one better. So, by that definition, we only got to the halfway point. But what really determined it was that as we approached this final story line, it began to feel like the final story line. It felt appropriate."

Cerebus TV runs a re-edited with new material "Cerebus Guide To Self-Publishing Special" episode
http://momentofcerebus.blogspot.com/2015/07/cerebus-tv-reruns-cerebus-guide-to-self.html

Comicbook writer Paul Tobin sites Dave Sim advice
http://comicbookinvest.com/2015/07/07/a-conversation-with-paul-tobin/
He says:
 "I wrote a bunch of novels that are junk… just total junk. But it was during that time that I really learned how to write. Dave Sim (of Cerebus fame) once said that the only way to learn to draw is to buy a stack of paper that’s taller than your head, and then fill all the pages, both sides, with drawings. That’s sort of how I feel about writing. You have to write yourself through an incredible amount of junk. Learning comes in small increments. I came out of that time period a much better writer, and… incidentally… a lot less temperamental about working with artists. I learned about the collaboration process of comics during that time period as well."

New review of Cerebus #12 by Jesse Lee Herndon https://youtu.be/r_5ayM9dSX4

New comic "Behemoth" cover inspired by Cerebus. From artist James Kenneth Woodward: Cover illustration issue 3. Ink and gouache in 12x18 hotpressed cotton. Heavily influenced by the Sim & Gerhard's Cerebus collected covers. I've always loved the early ones, particularly " Church and State Volume II". I LOVE the idea of a black and white cover and the bold use of negative space, giving the subject more impact by making it smaller.
