This edition also includes a lavishly-illustrated 6,000 word essay on the history of Cerebus, contextualizing this monumental work for current and future readers."

"Hard to believe that it's over 30 years since the serialization of High Society in the pages of Cerebus (#26 to 50). Even harder to believe that there's never been a signed-and-numbered edition of Comics' first 500-page graphic novel! Well, now there is! All this and a snazzy gold logo!"

"Thirty years ago, the idea that a genocidal, absolutist 'fire and brimstone' faith-based ideology could actually steamroll its way across national borders, financing itself by looting its own citizenry was considered too far-fetched 'even for comic books' so that it could only be addressed in the broad confines of the Ultimate Parody Comic, Dave Sim & Gerhard's Cerebus."

"Dave Sim's Cerebus began as a parody of Conan, but evolved into something much, much more! Intellectual, entertaining, and thought-provoking, Cerebus was the longest running independent black-and-white comic published! Volume 4, Church and State II, collects issues #81-111."

"Dave Sim's Cerebus began as a parody of Conan, but has expanded and grown into much, much more! Intellectual, entertaining, and thought provoking, Cerebus was one of the longest running independent black-and-white comics published! Jaka's Story, the fifth volume, reprints issues #114-136. "

"This sixth Cerebus trade paperback reprints Cerebus #139-150, and finds our Aardvark hero, believing Jaka to be dead, taking up residence in Dino's Cafe, clutching her childhood doll, Missy, and his sword."

"The fight between the newly established matriarchy and the opposing 'daughterarchy' ensnares Cerebus as he tries to regain the power he lost when the matriarchal Cirinists took over. The first chapter in the epic Mothers & Daughters storyline, volume 7, Flight, collects issues #151-162."

"by Dave Sim & Gerhard 'Reads,' an examination of creativity, the traditional role of the creator in a capitalistic society, an experiment in autobiography, and the long-awaited showdown between Cerebus and Cirin, was called everything from 'the Mein Kampf of comics' to 'the nearest reproduction of a mystical experience in print form.' Is it neither? Both? Or something in between? Find out in this expansive volume, reprinting Cerebus #175 through #186. SC, 7x10, 250pg, b&w"

"Minds, the tenth volume of the 6,000 page Cerebus epic, finds the titular misanthropic aardvark hurtling through space alongside Cirin, his opponent and fellow aardvark, both heading for a direct collision with their small-m maker - 'Dave' - a mysterious being who talks with them about themselves and their world, and who just might resemble Cerebus writer/cartoonist Dave Sim. Minds is the groundbreaking conclusion to the first two-thirds of the Cerebus epic, presented here for the first time in remastered form. "
