@SirCox  Dave Sim is in no way a misogynist.  Despite what you may have read on the internet.  I brought my family to meet Dave at his Last Signing at Strange Adventures in Halifax.  He was an absolute gentleman to both my wife and my children.

I urge you to watch the mini video documentary I filmed, and you can make up your own mind.  Keep an eye out for the drunk club girls that show up towards the end, and how he dealt with them wonderfully (in no way misogynistic I assure you).

Darwyn Cooke and his wife Marsha came out to the Glamourpuss event and it turns out she's a BIG glamourpuss fan, and went so far as to record a video statement where she specifically says how she does NOT think Dave Sim is a misogynist.

If he was against anything, it was rampant feminism.  Which is a long way from hating women.  The comic book community really put the man through the wringer over the past decade and it was unwarranted. 

Cerebus is a great series.
Right 'til the end.

I'm a big fan of Jack Staff too!
