A Case for Relevance

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.

We interrupt the usual look at Dave Sim's notebooks for something even older. A look at an essay by a still teenage Dave Sim in a fanzine called Direct Currents. Published in June of 1974 by Alan Orr out of Kitchener, Direct Currents #2, contains a two page essay by Dave.

The checklist on my website states the cover is by Sim as well. The picture on my site stinks, because I never had a copy of the fanzine until now:

Direct Currents #2 cover

Hard to make out, but if you zoom in on the bottom left corner you can see the Sim '74 text. Besides that, it does look like Dave's earlier work.

The essay by Dave is in response to something that I haven't read - tracking down issue #2 was hard enough. If you click on the pages, you'll get a bigger size to make it easier to read.

Direct Currents #2, page 10

Direct Currents #2, page 11
