Description

From Dave, on memorable collaborations: Drawing the two-part Ricky Robot strip written by (THE) Jerry Siegel in the back of Cerebus. It felt bad in a way because it wasn’t, to me, really strong material. So I felt, in a way, like one of those people who would jump at the chance to have lunch with Orson Welles knowing that they weren’t going to finance his movie. So, it felt kind of predatory - working with the “creator of Superman” rather than working with Jerry Siegel. On the other hand, we did pay him and we did publish the story and it might have sparked some interest somewhere and I’m sure he knew and understood that I wasn’t going to stop doing Cerebus to do Ricky Robot with him full-time.

Dan is one of the Day brother artists (Gene, David, and Dan).
