 I guess this is supposed to.. be... funny? I don't... I can't... Maybe if one were reading Cerebus (which is re-launching as 12 straight #1s, with titles like "Sim City.") You'd get the joke. I get the sense that Sim is alone a lot, and that lets him develop his own ideas without any reality checks from other people. And it... turns.... into.... this. I keep imagining a world where Sim never lost his bloody mind and grew old with some dignity. It's a nice thought. |

I was a big Cerebus fan way back when, but agree that his sense of humor seems off. I see what he comes out with now as so paralysingly unfunny it's a strain to even recognise them as jokes.

If this is a legitimate Sim effort, I will try it anyway, as I think he's a genius even when he is outrageously offensive and off-base. However, if this is going to be like Cerebus in Hell -- a lazy photoshop effort, completely devoid of both art and purpose -- I'm out.

I don't know about how funny the other jokes are, but "Sim City" is a clever title. |

I'm not quite the Cerebus fan you are, but I was def. gonna pick up Cerebus in Hell, but I guess I just never saw it anywhere? |
