Description

There is a digitization project underway (2014) to gather original art pages that are "out in the wild" (e.g., the 200 or so pages that I possess) and get high-res scans of them for future digital versions of the Cerebus books (as opposed to trying to scan the crappy printing done on newsprint, of the printed books).

The restoration project, being run by Sean Michael Robinson, has been dubbed "The Cerebus Art Dragnet."

The original art for the "badge" logo and an illustration of Jack Webb (Dragnet!) as a Aardvark, above a couple of 2014 head shots of Cerebus, was auctioned.

For my inscription, I asked Dave to be creative with the classic noir intro narrative motif used in the Dragnet series: "This is the city� we wear badges�" � This is what came back. Pretty cool. You can see the art as it was auctioned, also, to see what was added.
