Dave Sim is a lesson to us all. However, he shared the profits with Ger.

I had a complete set of Cerebus – right back to #1. I threw the lot in the bin when I finished reading the last issue – I had held on in case somehow Sim could turn it around at the last moment. The whole project turned into a complete waste of time when Dave when off the rails the second time. He should have stopped at issue #200 like he originally planned and had a masterpiece as a legacy. Thinking about Cerebus makes me sick/angry/sad now so I try not to do it.
