Alex’s Story – Cover

Okay, so the next two issues were a huge tribute/parody of Dave Sim's Cerebus storyline Jaka's Story.

The cover for Issue 4 is one one hand copying the lettering Dave Used for Jaka's Story, (which I would later find out was a rub on lettering called bottleneck, but I did by hand) and on the other, another movie poster, this time an obscure 80's sci-fi films called Explorers.

Like the Jaka's Story covers, the back of the issue is all black with a quote from a real life person who becomes a character in the story. In Cerebus it was Oscar Wilde. For Alex's Story, it was Woody Allen. The Quote? "Eternal nothingness is O.K. if you're dressed for it." - Woody Allen from 'Getting Even'
