Swords Against Cerebus

Episode 12: Don't Be So Bloody Damn Tiresome

Come in, traveler. Rest your weary head. Let us care for you, but leave well alone the cellar…where we’re cooking up the twelfth episode of Swords Against Cerebus, covering issues 23 and 24 (“The Beguiling, parts 1 and 2”)! This week’s discussion questions: Did Dave Sim kill John Lennon? Can you trust any women? Does anyone not want to fuck Cerebus? P.S.: It’s Ed’s fault this one is late. If you feel obliged to send them some encouragement, fire a few shots off your balcony in a random direction.

Episode 10: I Never Cared Much for Red Sophia

Iceberg, right ahead! It’s episode 10 of Swords Against Cerebus, covering issues 19 (“She-Devil in the Shadows”) and 20 (“Mind Game”)! We were tricked — fooled, that is — by the last 18 issues, so sure we wouldn’t have to think about Cirinists and Suenteses for at least another five issues (if not twenty) that these issues knocked us on our fucking asses! For old time’s sake, let’s do some bullets: The return of Henrot! Rampant Islamophobia! Elvis! Easily the worst misogyny in the comic yet! Usually I’m one to tease all the good bits in the episode summary, but you’re going to have to hear this one for yourself.

Episode 9: Grimes Allegations

Chaos reigns! It's the ninth episode of Swords Against Cerebus, covering issues 17 (“Champion”) and 18 (“Fluroc”)! Hope you didn't like the characters we've spent three and a half issues with, because we're going to hang out with some other guys now. One of them is Grimes! After that: youth group, vintage furries, a very accessible reference to a Mastodon post, and the mastodon in the room: Dave's extremely ill-advised letters column!

Episode 8: GIANT PENIS ISSUE

From the pits under Palnu, it’s another Swords Against Cerebus, discussing issues 15 (“A Day in the Pits”) and 16 (“A Night at the Masque”)! Hey, they’ll let any old episode title fly down here. It’s the rest of the Palnu trilogy, featuring a lot of weird returns! Dave Sim’s Reagan obsession — E’lass and Turg — Jaka (briefly) — and libertarianism! Talking points: Is communism bad? (No.) Is Palnu communist? (No.) Is Cerebus asexual representation? (Uh.)
