Dave Sim - Original Art for Cerebus #53, page 20 (Aardvark Vanheim, 1980s). One of the most beloved aspects of Dave Sim's Cerebus (which has only recently completed its landmark run with issue #300) was his savage parodies of pop- and comic-culture icons. And probably none was more beloved than the resolutely insane, hyperbole-spouting Wolveroach. This amazing page, the last in the issue, is from the very first appearance of Wolveroach, and features the crazed "superhero" in every panel. Cerebus pages are always highly coveted, but this could just be a holy grail. Rendered on heavy illustration board, this measures 11.5" x 17.5", in excellent condition overall with some slight blunting at the corners that does not affect the artwork. Signed by Sim in the lower left corner. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
