Dave Sim Secret Project #1: Judenhas

[thebitterguy]

Dave Sim's got a website for his other current project, entiteld Judenhass, German for anti-semitism or, literally, Jew-Hate.

A 48 page single issue, out in May.

Why do you think Jew hatred didn’t transmit itself to you?

Because of comic books. Superman was created by Jews. Batman was created by a Jew. Will Eisner who was my absolute idol as a writer-artist was a Jew. It was unthinkable for me to harbour any ill will towards Jews. They created the comic-book field and the comic-book field—prior to my coming to believe in God ten years ago—has always been the most important thing in my life.

edit: Previews are available in PDF and web based.

ObSnark:

Neil Gaiman said it made him cry, which means Dave now views him as a Void.

Whoa.

So, how does it feel to know he's got your back?

I'm wondering, if he knew anything about the history of medicine and mathematics, whether he'd have yours.

I'll admit the Alexandrian church did a lot of scholarship in the day, before the schism at Chalcedon.
