Sim has lately recovered from wrist harm sufficient to attract the upcoming Cerebus In Hell: Akimbo comedian ebook, as nicely the next for Greener Pastures.
“We were inspired by people like Dave Sim, who had one of the longest-running indie titles with the most issues – so it feels good to carry the torch and inspire the next generation, even if it’s with the longest-running indie title that has the fewest issues,” provides McEwen. “If all goes to plan, we’re going to turn that around over the next couple of years or so, as we’re already working on the next stage in Trevor’s evolution. Whether you’ve been following us since the beginning, or you’re just discovering us now, we hope you’ll take that journey with us.”
The ebook will even include work by James A.

“One sunny day in rural NSW, a stud bull decides that farm life is just too boring. He stands on his hind legs and heads off to the bright lights of the big city. Dubbed Trevor Bovis, he hooks up with the asthmatic fanatic, Colin McGuinn, and together they get up to all sorts of shenanigans…”
“Greener Pastures is the story of loveable stud bull Trevor Bovis, who, in a fit of unexpected enlightenment in 1997, decided that there must be more to life than eating grass all day and having his way with the heifers all night. So he left his farm in rural Australia to attend university in Sydney where he made friends with an inept but earnest political activist named Colin McGuinn and his hedonistic flatmate Caesar. Adventure and hilarity, of course, ensued!”
Launching on Kickstarter, Greener Pastures 8 is a brand new story set within the interval when the collection was initially conceived, the Nineteen Nineties. Now extra of a interval piece, set earlier than they introduced protagonist Trevor Bovis into the 2020s, the story is a slight remodeling of the script initially meant for publication in 1997. With the working title of Sex & Violence (now up to date to Sweet Sweet Release), on the native nightspot, The Berlin Club.
“We wanted to do something really special for our return, so I thought I’d reach out to some of the friends we made over the years,” says co-creator and artist, Tim McEwen. “Over my time in the Australian comics scene, I’ve had the opportunity to rub shoulders with a who’s-who of comic greats – many of whom I called on for this new issue. There’s some great stories I could tell about the people who said no (get me on your show and we can spill the beans!) but we’re so grateful to all the ones who said yes. The result is something truly worthy of Trevor’s long-awaited return.”
The Kickstarter will likely be reside till the eighth of March.
