>Sim later explicitly states that folks unable to afford comics for "the usual reasons" need not "feel ethically guilty for downloading something you haven't paid for" in this case: "please feel COMPLETELY FREE -- and GUILT FREE -- to [download]." He only asks that readers "donate what you COMFORTABLY can" as able, even if it's years or decades later.

Thanks Dave, but I already stole and read all of Cerebus the old-fashioned way. Yar har har, fiddle dee dee, it's a pirate's life for me.

Sim is so cool. He is right next to Watterson in the hall of heroes /co/ needs and doesn't deserve.
he's had that opinion for awhile
>>83758198
This
>>83757917
cool
>>83757917
Damn OP, I might just take advantage of this.
>>83758500
Watterson is a genius that enjoys his privacy. Sim is fucking insane.
But every library has Cerebus, High Society, and Church & State.
I need the rare stuff (Women Read Minds and Form & Void)
>>83762327
But those are shit, that's why no one has them
>>83763727
>implying Minds wasn't good
>>83764911
If you like needles poking you in the eye.
>>83764951
That's what people who don't read it say.
>>83757917
BASED SIM
>>83761704
unlike /co/?
>>83766696
Truly
>>83765051
It's literally (LITERALLY (l i t e r a l l y)) about Dave poking Cerebus in the eye with a needle.
>I'm not a misogynist! Misogynists HATE all women, I just don't trust any women.
Dave Sim
>>83770481
Dave Sim is RightDoes it mean that Sim is a mutant?
>>83764951
>Minds
>bad
Holy shit
>>83761704
*was
He seems to be doing way better since 2012
>>83770492
Sim is a demon from limbo anon
>>83770659
Yeah, I forgot aboutS'ym
Pretty close, though
>>83770639
Until he actually recants some of what he's said or acknowledges that he crossed some lines, I cannot trust that his condition is improving.
>Yeah, we shouldn't actually take away women's right to vote. Yeah, housepets aren't actually the downfall of human civilization. I was just having a hard time those days.
>>83770683
I mean it's a literal reference. S'ym looks like cerebus, and it's Claremont poking fun at Sim for including Charles X Claremont
>>83770763
Well, I agreed with you anon
>>83770715
It's an edgy / radical opinion, but it doesn't mean that he is insane. Especially, that he can argument his position.
Also, is it true that Sim haven't masturbated since... forever
>>83770798
>Two years into the series, Sim took LSD for a week and a half, suffered what he described as a “nervous breakdown,” and had to be admitted to a hospital, where he was diagnosed as “borderline schizophrenic”
He's mentioned that he is LITERALLY insane
>>83770892
Poor Sim. I hope he got better. The thing is, his opinions didn't change, did they?
>>83757917
Huh.
Does this mean I'm not allowed to hate him any more?
>>83770715
He acknowledged that the original diagnosis of schizophrenia was correct, you really want to make him relive that bullshit?
>>83771037
>you really want to make him relive that bullshit?
Should I put [trigger warning]s in my demands so that nobody has to relive anything?
>>83771512
Oh fuck off you're the one that wants him to apologize for all the mean words he said against those poor defenseless women
>>83770971
Why would you hate him in the first place? Nobody should feel anything towards Dave other than Admiration and Pity.
>>83771535
Why are you getting angry and putting words in my mouth?
I just can't trust that he's less crazy now unless he acknowledges that he's been saying some pretty crazy stuff.
>Yeah, I was probably wrong, AIDS probably isn't a government conspiracy, okay...
>>83757917
Good old Dave.
>>83771624
>Originally referenced his misogynistic views (which the pet one is rooted in)
>putting words in your mouth
Who cares if he's crazy or not?
>>83772266
Can you not follow the conversation?
>Who cares if he's crazy or not?
The answer is obvious: The poster of >>83770639 cares enough to claim that he is less crazy now.
I am stating that I cannot trust that poster's claim unless Dave Sim acknowledges that what he was saying in the past was pretty crazy.
Follow the conversation, please.
>>83770763
I always felt like there was more to that joke that I never got
>>83757917
>donate what you COMFORTABLY can" as able, even if it's years or decades later.
Considering he requires people to sign a statement saying he's not a misogynist if they want to contact him, I wonder if he's demanding the same thing from people who wish to make donations?
>>83772599
Can you really trust a crazy person when you say they are not crazy anymore?
>>83772863
How Can Cerebus Be Real If His Eyes Aren't Real?
>wah wah davey doesn't like girls
>>83773719
You can dislike girls all you want but don't bleed your neurosis onto the page and interrupt your story with essays like Sim's did
>>83773772
That's what you should complain about, not his beliefs. Big Dave has always just minded to himself once Cerebus was done
>>83771512
Get a load of this faggot.
>>83773772
Not every thing has to be made for you, anon. That's what they tell the white folks anyway.
>>83774186
True, which is why that story only has notoriety and is consistently listed as the jumping off point of the series and a creative low point.
>>83757917
I think even BKV's site offers you to pay whatever you want to download anything of his creator owned work, including nothing at all.
>>83757917
I'm confused, how do I get it?
