Melmoth Thumbnails Part 1

MARGARET LISS:

A few years ago I scanned all of Dave Sim's notebooks. He had filled 36 notebooks during the years he created the monthly Cerebus series, covering issues #20 to 300, plus the other side items -- like the Epic stories, posters and prints, convention speeches etc. A total of 3,281 notebook pages detailing his creative process. I never really got the time to study the notebooks when I had them. Just did a quick look, scanned them in and sent them back to Dave as soon as possible. So this regular column is a chance for me to look through those scans and highlight some of the more interesting pages.

Dave Sim's nineteenth Cerebus notebook covers Cerebus #141 through 149 and we last saw pages from it in March's A Deal For A Single Gold Coin.

On page 35 of the notebook are thumbnails for pages three though five of Cerebus #144, or pages 111 through 113 if you're following along in the Melmoth phonebook.

Notebook #19, page 35

So you can see how Dave laid it out in pencil and then went over the pencil with pen.

Melmoth, pages 111 - 113

The thumbnails look pretty close to the finish pages, without Gerhard's backgrounds. On the second page (page 4) the Cerebus in panel four of the  thumbnail is a tighter shot then the one used on the finished page and on the third page (page 5) the first panel has Great Andrena holding scrolls, but the final page does not.  It makes me wonder why the first two pages were finished with pencil while the third page is still rough pencils.

Next week we'll see page 36 of the notebook, part of which you can see through page 35. More thumbnails!
