Cerebus #285

The cover of Cerebus #285 takes a playful swipe at press-junket blurbs, plastering mock "rave reviews" across the page to herald "Chasing YHWH IV: The Final Chapter" — promising it's the funniest Cerebus in years. A small inset image at the bottom shows the unmistakable aardvark from behind, tiny against a grand, glowing backdrop labeled "GOD YHWH," hinting at the cosmic-yet-comedic territory Dave Sim and Gerhard are navigating in this twentieth installment of Latter Days. With cover art by Dave Sim and Ken Sim, it's a self-aware, genuinely witty package from Aardvark-Vanaheim's long-running series in December 2002.
