Cerebus valentines combine the cuteness of Cerebus with the insanity of Dave Sim
Cerebus the Aardvark was the longest running continuous narrative in human history. Dave Sim and Gerhard cranked it out for decades. It began as a sort of tongue-in-cheek Conan parody, veered into high comedy, became a love story, and then--after Sim's divorce--became a twisted conspiracy about women ruling the world. Or something. I gave up on it when it got stupid. Early Cerebus is pretty great though.
Sim has gone onto many message boards any espoused his anti-women views recently. Although calling them "anti-women" is like saying the Nazis didn't get along with Jews very well. The sheer volume and pitch of his crazy is overwhelming.
Laura Hudson over at Comics Alliance (swiftly becoming the best comics site on the web) has taken the darling illustrations from early Cerebus and paired them with the demented ramblings of post-Cerebus Dave Sim. The result is internet gold.
