Is there any comprehensive retrospective or biography on Dave Sim and Cerebus...

Thank you based user.

The final 100-or-so issues is him directly descending in to abject insanity as he becomes a born-again Christian and dedicates dozens of pages to espousing his made-up loony-bin religion.

A lot of it is still very good reading, but there's a reason why the guy himself admits that #200 is a perfectly valid point to stop reading if you desire to.

shunning all contact with decadent and evil SOCIETY (especially the women)

How much more of a direct source can you ask for beyond the man himself, right?

>The Cerebus Downloads website he operates looks a fucking mess. There’s virtually no layout whatsoever
Are you seriously complaining about him giving you free access to hundreds of comic books?

I think his ex-wife wrote a book or something?

Yo my father gave my his Cerberus comics along with the first few issues of Spawn and those were my first comics so I really fuck with you guys for even knowing about this shit. Of course this is Yea Forums so that’s condescending for me to say. But yeah the last few are kinda crazy and the story is so based I can’t even get a grasp of it. I read it before I understood anything.

Any tips for reading cerebus? Can I skip some of the early chapters? Medieval parody doesn't too appealing to me...

Yeah exactly. I only wanna read the issues that are really good. And make sense.

You're not allowed to skip anything. There is no "abridged" form of Cerebus the Aardvark.

Issue #003 introduces Red Sophia.
Issue #004 introduces Elrod
Issue #005 introduces Bran Mak Mufin
Issue #006 introduces Jaka
Issue #007 has Elrod again
Issues #008 and #009 introduces the Conniptins
Issue #010 has Red Sophia again
Issues #011 and 012 introduce The Roach
Issue #013 introduces The Thing
Issues #014, 015, 016, 017 and 018 introduce Lord Julius
Issues #019 and 020 introduce the Cirinists and Sunteus Po
Issues #021 and 022 introduce Adam Weishaupt
Issues #023, 024 and 025 introduce Charles X Claremont

Every single one of these gets reused later on, some for simple gags, some for an entire storyline, and some last for the entire comic. Even when Dave Sim was an unfunny hack, he still knew what he was doing.

>as he becomes a born-again Christian

He claims to be a Christian-Jewish-Muslim, IIRC

If you're lazy, go read the High Society arc, then go back to reading the early chapters that came before High Society so you get more context on those characters.

Oh no.
