Dave Sim Launches 'Varking Dead' Music Video For Latest Cerebus In Hell

We mentioned that Dave Sim's latest upcoming Cerebus In Hell one-shot, yet another #1, would be a Walking Dead parody, The Varking Dead. With this cover…

This solicitation… including the nod that every issue will be individually numbered.

The Varking Dead #1
(W) Benjamin Hobbs (A) Dave Sim & Gustave Dore (CA) Benjamin Hobbs, Dave Sim, Gustave Dore, Gerhard
A plague of Cerebi (many Cerebuses) Settling the issue of the proper temperature at which to serve chai tea (hot? cold?) with poison gas … well, how do you think that's going to work? It destroys their minds and they become THE VARKING DEAD! Meanwhile, Virgil finally gets an answer from the Arby's franchising office and the infernal realms' first Arby's franchise is a GO! Unfortunately, there isn't any roast beef "down under". You can see where we're going with this. Fortunately, the IRON MANTICORE is selling his old helmets as Anti-Varking Dead protection. Cue the SPOILER WARNING! Giant Jurassic Zombie Aardvark (oh, yeah. Like you didn't see THAT one coming from a mile away!) and SPOILER WARNING! decapitation of Dante (who is only pretending to be dead so he doesn't have to work in an Arby's. Something of a cliche since Neil Gaiman used roughly the same concept in the last SANDMAN sequel, but, hey! Give the people what they want!). Note: The entire print run will be sequentially numbered and randomly distributed throughout Diamond's distribution! In Shops: Mar 25, 2020 SRP: $4.00

An additional image…

And now an actual music video, featuring Dave Sim as the eternally cursed damned. How appropriate…
