The GREAT a Moment of Cerebus 2019 Re-Read
Well, I finished "Year Two," ie: issues 7 through 12.
Let's check the Motifs:
Issue 6 ended with Cerebus NOT walking away in silhouette, so that means issue 7 must end...
![]() |
Ah damn it!!! |
But, he does move away from the stock Cerebus ending in "Year Two":
![]() |
Issue Eight |
![]() |
Issue 9 |
![]() |
Issue 10 |
![]() |
Issue 11 |
![]() |
Issue 12 |
Now, the other motif of "Unreliable Narrators" continues with the "Know Ye O' Prince" omniscient narrator of the first year. (Although, issue one's narrator, is technically someone from the town:)
![]() |
And, ironically, Cerebus enters the issue in silhouette... |
The other big difference for "Year Two," is continuing story lines.
Issue 6 ends with Cerebus going to find the Black Sun treasure, issue 7 starts with him continuing that. Although, the treasure changes from 6 to 7:

Issue 6 |

Issue 7 |
Another thing I noticed, and I think it's thanks to the beauty of the 17th printing, is Dave's "laziness" in a couple of panels.
(To be honest, it's less "laziness," and more cartooning shortcuts. In glamourpuss, Dave talks about Alex Raymond's abilities, and asks, "how does he DO that?!?" I had the same reaction to these panels:)

Issue 9 |
![]() |
Issue 10 |
Truly, the "amateur" has grown.
Another thing about "Year Two" is that Dave does a bit of "Cerebus' Greatest Hits" by bringing back characters from the first year. I don't know, because I'm reading the phonebook, and not the original issues (or the reprints, or Swords), if these were fan demanded returns, or if Dave just decided to bring them back. But we get the return of Elrod in issue 7:
And Red Sophia in issue 10:
Alright, I might talk more about "Year Two" tomorrow.
Next Time: Either, "Year Two" or the transcript of Please Hold...
