Alors… BOOM. Weisshaupt shows off his secret weapon. Of note, some of the solid blacks on these pages were painted in by Dave using his foot to hold the brush (photographic evidence exists).

Thanks. Easy to agree :) "Name 5 memorable scenes from the entire run of Cerebus, and you are going to get BOOM on many lists."

Love this. It proves right the Chekhov rule - a weapon shown early in a story must play a key role later. As did this gun when Cerebus used it to blow up the giant stone Thrunk, who claimed falsely to be Tarim to try and steal the gold Cerebus had extorted from his own followers. Great DPS. This is when the series was at its best, IMHO. Story and art really meshed.
