Description
Cerebus 194 page 5. From the Minds book
Comment
In the Minds book, Cerebus meets his creator Dave while exploring the solar system. This page is not only a cosmic splash, it is also the introduction to my favorite sequence in that book: The origin of Cirin and the cirinist movement. Too bad that Dave Sim never seriously developed that storyline further.

About Dave Sim
David Victor Sim (born 17 May 1956) is a Canadian cartoonist and publisher, best known for his comic book Cerebus, his artistic experimentation, his advocacy of self-publishing and creator's rights, and his controversial political, philosophical and religious beliefs.
Sim dropped out of high school to pursue a career in comics, and rose to prominence after he began Cerebus in December 1977. Initially, Cerebus was a parody of Conan the Barbarian and other sword and sorcery comics, but after two years Sim came to conceive of the series as a self-complete work, which would run for 300 issues and be subdivided into "novels". By the time the 6000-page work was completed in March 2004, Sim had delved into politics, theology, metaphysics, and a controversial examination of feminism and gender issues, while becoming progressively more sophisticated and experimental in his storytelling and artwork.
