I also met Deni for the first time. She said that she and Dave had had a long talk (prompted partly by Gene Day's death) about what to do if Dave should die before completing Cerebus' story. They decided to finish with the "Swords" series of reprints, but not to have any new stories. She also said that no one could really wrap it up, because Dave has everything in his head. Maybe we can all move to Kitchener and surround his house with our swords drawn, to shield him from danger. If you like "cerebus" and "Elfquest" (at least the parts about having long stories) you might try Jack Katz's "The First Kingdom". It comes out twice a year, and is now up to issue #14 or so. It is a tremendously convoluted s&s/sf story, spanning millions of years and a whole galaxy, but primarily set on a post-holocaust Earth.
