We are pleased to present Cerebus No. 2, in a deluxe, Remastered & Expanded edition!
In December 1977, Cerebus No.1 was published - chronicling the adventures of a short-tempered, barbarian Aardvark created by Dave Sim. 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 1970s), Sim quickly found his own voice as a storyteller and illustrator and went on to publish 300 issues, eventually ending the series in March, 2004.

The original, early issues of Cerebus were printed on thin newsprint paper and decades later, most of the few surviving examples are found in lower grades. This new edition of Cerebus No. 2 presents the original issue in its entirety, with painstakingly remastered art and printed on premium paper! Early Cerebus has never looked so good!

In addition to the original content, this expanded edition contains an additional 24 pages of rarities including the thumbnails for a previously unpublished 6-page Cerebus story from 1978 titled, "ANATOLE'S SOLECISM." This version of the story features Sim's original pencil breakdowns and finished lettering, with the unfinished art offering a rare glimpse into Sim's creative process in the early days of Cerebus.
CEREBUS No. 2, Remastered and Expanded will not be widely distributed or sold through comic book stores.
